There will be a card with your surname on the windscreen. We'll drive in a smooth motorway trough the country and see the Etruscan Landscapes. It will take approx. one hour and ten minutes to get to Rome. The drive will continue along Ostiense Road and arrive at the Pyramid built for Caius Cestio.
At this stage of the tour we will be inside the ancient Roman Wall built by Emperor Aureliano (271 AD).
We will then arrive at the Circus Maximus, the large ancient stadium for chariot races. Behind the stadium you will see the Palatine Hill where the villas and the domus of the emperors were built. At this point you will be able to see the Arch of Constantine and the Colosseum.
We will stop here, and you will be able to visit the Colosseum and the Roman Forum on your own if you wish. In order to avoid lengthy, and time consuming queues, I will obtain the entry tickets in advance as a complimentary service for my clients.
The fees for the entry tickets will be added to the final bill (the Colosseum charges 11 Euros per ticket). Following the Colosseum, we will stop at the Piazza Venezia where you will see the Vittorio Emanuele Monument, dedicated to the first king of Italy.
Now will be the time to visit the Vatican Museum where you will be able to admire the vast collection of masterpieces, including the Raphael Rooms and the Sistine Chapel. Admission to the Museum is 12 Euros per person. If you wish to have a tour guide in the Vatican Museum I can book one at a price of 60 Euros per hour. It will take two hours to visit the Museum, The Sistine Chapel and The Basilica.
Please note that the Vatican museum is closed on Sundays. Upon exiting the museum, you will be in St Peter's Square from where you will be able to visit the inside of St. Peter's Basilica.
Our next destination will be the Pantheon, once the temple of all Roman gods, then a church and burial place for kings and artists (Raphael). Trevi Fountain will follow. Here you can toss a coin in the fountain to ensure a return visit to Italy.
Finally, you can rest and have a seat on the Spanish Steps. Please note that the order in which we will visit the sites may vary pending traffic conditions or other third party act.
The tour can be altered to personalize your desires. Additional costs for entry tickets are not included in the tour fee, and the costs for entry tickets purchased in advance will be added to the final bill.
The fees for the tours include tolls and parking, and are required in Euro funds. Kindly dress appropriately in order to be able to enter a church.
