Tour Itinerary

Follow the traces of Ancient Rome through a carefully designed itinerary that brings the city’s imperial past back to life, step by step:


Ancient Rome Golf Cart Tour: Travel through the heart of Ancient Rome on a journey that unfolds like a story. Moving comfortably by golf cart, you will explore the spaces where power, daily life, and spectacle once defined the Eternal City, guided by a narrative that connects each stop into a single, immersive experience.


Piazza del Campidoglio: Your journey begins on Capitoline Hill, where Rome reveals its most symbolic viewpoint. From this elegant square designed by Michelangelo, you overlook the Roman Forum—once the political and social center of the empire—setting the stage for the story of Ancient Rome.


Colosseum (External View): As you approach the Colosseum, its massive structure dominates the landscape. Passing alongside it, you are invited to imagine the roar of the crowds, the grandeur of the games, and the role this arena played in Roman society.


Arch of Constantine: Just beside the Colosseum, this triumphal arch marks a moment of imperial victory. Its intricate reliefs and commanding presence offer a powerful reminder of Rome’s political and military strength.


Clivo di Scauro: Leaving the monumental heart of the city, you enter a quieter, more intimate setting. This ancient road preserves the feeling of everyday Rome, where history lives in the walls, the silence, and the rhythm of the surroundings.


Baths of Caracalla (External View): Driving past the Baths of Caracalla, you encounter one of the largest and most impressive complexes of the ancient world. Even in ruins, they speak of a civilization where architecture, leisure, and social life were deeply connected.


Theatre of Marcellus (External View): Continuing your journey, this elegant structure recalls the entertainment of ancient Rome. Still integrated into the modern city, it reflects how layers of history coexist seamlessly in Rome.


Foro Boario (External View): In this ancient trading area, some of the oldest temples in Rome stand quietly among the streets. It is a place where the origins of the city can still be felt, simple and powerful at the same time.


Circus Maximus & Augmented Reality Experience: Your journey concludes at the Circus Maximus, once the largest stadium of Ancient Rome. Here, the experience becomes fully immersive: through augmented reality, the vast empty space transforms into a living arena filled with chariots, crowds, and movement. It is a striking and emotional finale, where the past is no longer imagined—but seen.
