Ancient Rome + Vatican

OVERVIEW

Though Imperial Rome eventually fell, its might and grandeur could be said to have been replaced by the power and opulence of the Catholic Church.

On this walking tour, your private licensed guide will show Ancient Rome’s treasures: the Colosseum, the Roman Forum with its triumphal arches like the Arch of Titus, and more.  You’ll also see treasures acquired by the Catholic Popes over the centuries: artworks by masters like Michelangelo, Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci to name but a few.
