Colosseum
A private driver will pick you up at the dock of your ship and bring you to meet your guide in Rome. Start at the Arch of Constantine, then move on to the Colosseum or Flavian Amphitheatre It is the largest ancient amphitheater and a symbol of Roman power and architecture. Completed in 80 AD, it could hold 50,000 to 80,000 spectators, protected by a retractable awning operated by sailors.
• The design allowed the entire crowd to exit quickly through 80 numbered entrances. For 400 years, the arena hosted naval battles, with the arena flooded for some events, gladiatorial combats, and animal hunts. In fact, the word "arena" comes from the Latin for "sand," which was used to cover the floor and absorb blood from combatants.
NOTE that the Colosseum tour will last 1 hour; the rest of the time, 1,5 hours, is the port transfer time.

Piazza Navona
Piazza Navona is considered Rome's most elegant and vibrant public square, built on the site of an ancient Roman stadium. It is a stunning example of Baroque architecture and serves as a central gathering place for both locals and tourists.
The square is renowned for its three magnificent fountains, with the most famous being Gian Lorenzo Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers (Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi). This fountain features a towering Egyptian obelisk and statues representing the four major rivers of the continents known at the time: the Nile, Ganges, Danube, and Rio de la Plata.

Pantheon
The Pantheon is the best-preserved monument from ancient Rome and one of the most influential buildings in architectural history. Originally built as a temple dedicated to all gods, it has served as a Catholic church since the year 609.
Even today, the Pantheon boasts the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome. Its innovative design was so advanced that it held the record for the largest dome of any kind for over 1,300 years.
The Pantheon is the final resting place for several Italian kings and the renowned Renaissance painter Raphael.

Fontana di Trevi
The Trevi Fountain (Fontana di Trevi) is Rome's largest and most famous Baroque fountain, known for its impressive size. It marks the endpoint of the Aqua Virgo, an ancient aqueduct built in 19 BC that still supplies recycled water to the fountain.
The central figure is often thought to be Neptune, but it is actually Oceanus, a Titan god, standing on a shell-shaped chariot pulled by two sea horses—one calm and one restless, representing the sea's changing moods.
To ensure your return to Rome, tradition dictates that you throw a coin over your left shoulder with your right hand while facing away from the fountain.

Spanish Steps
The Spanish Steps (Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti) are one of Rome's most iconic landmarks.

The steps were built to link the French church to the Spanish Embassy, which still stands in the square today. At the base of the steps, you will find the Fontana della Barcaccia, a unique fountain designed by Pietro Bernini. This fountain is shaped like a half-sunken, flooded ship.
