Make the most of a single day in Rome by moving through the city’s greatest historical and artistic sites.
The itinerary begins at the Colosseum, the monumental amphitheatre that dominates Rome’s skyline and evokes the drama of ancient spectacles. From there, continue on foot into the Roman Forum to encounter the civic and religious heart of ancient Rome, with highlights such as the Temple of Caesar and the Arch of Titus.
Later, the route takes in a panoramic sweep of Rome’s architectural treasures: the Pantheon’s imposing dome, the ornate Trevi Fountain, the lively squares of Piazza Navona and the expansive vistas from Gianicolo Hill. These city views contextualise centuries of history and offer excellent photographic opportunities.
In the afternoon, the experience continues inside the Vatican Museums.
Follow passageways that lead through the Gallery of Maps, the Gallery of Tapestries and the Raphael Rooms before reaching the Sistine Chapel, where Michelangelo’s The Last Judgment is a transcendent finale.
The balance of outdoor monuments and museum galleries creates a varied day, highlighting Rome’s layered past and extraordinary artistic heritage.
