What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Colosseum

   1h

   Start the day at the Colosseum (internal visit included), where children are introduced to ancient Rome, gladiators, and daily life through clear, age-appropriate explanations.

2. 2

   Roman Forum

   1h

   Wander through the ruins of the ancient downtown where emperors once walked and marble temples still touch the sky. Let the children immerse through the fallen columns of what used to be the busiest place on Earth.

3. 3

   Piazza Venezia

   Pass by

   Look up at Victor Emmanuel I monument, a massive white marble building that looks like something out of a fairy tale. Use this giant landmark as your family's North Star to stay oriented while exploring the city center.

4. 4

   Pantheon

   Pass by

   Then follow a narrow avenue to see the Pantheon, where Raphael, the Renaissance architect and painter, lies entombed.

5. 5

   Trevi Fountain

   Pass by

   Next, continue your tour to the Trevi Fountain, seen in several films, including Fellini’s La Dolce Vita. To follow legend, throw a coin in the fountain and make a wish that someday you’ll return to Rome.

6. 6

   Piazza Di Pietra

   10min

   Feel the massive ancient temple pillars that are now built right into the side of a modern building. It is a literal "touch-and-see" lesson on how Rome is built layer upon layer like a giant lasagna.

7. 7

   Piazza del Campidoglio

   20min

   Scale the grand staircase designed by Michelangelo to find the giant bronze horseman guarding the hilltop. Enjoy the "secret" balcony view behind the square that overlooks the entire ancient valley.

8. 8

   Palazzo di Montecitorio

   Pass by

   Watch the guards in their colorful uniforms stand watch outside Italy’s Parliament building. It’s a great spot to talk to older kids about how the Romans invented the idea of a Republic long ago.
