First, enter the evocative ruins of the Roman Forum and while walking around the remains of the imposing ancient buildings you will listen to its history peppered with anecdotes about the structure of Roman society, their beliefs, their social and political life. Learn how the Romans managed to create and control such a vast territory and how that empire declined.

Then, avoiding the lines to get in to the Colosseum, you'll visit the imposing arena and relive the days of Ancient Rome! Enjoy a thorough tour of the building through which you'll learn about the inner workings of the Colosseum and the special effects and showmanship of the ferocious games played there, the role the Colosseum had in Roman society and what it meant to a Roman to attend these games. We'll discuss about all the different kind of games held in the amphitheatre.

Tivoli was also the brainchild of one man, the powerful and ambitious Cardinal Ippolito D'este who during the 1500's set out to transform an old Benedictine convent into a new garden of Eden with more than 200 fountains laid out on sloping terraces along with beautiful greenery.

Some of the most imposing fountains have been just restored, like The Fontana dell'Organo which has inside a water-operated organ which delivers music as water falls through, or le Fontane di Tivoli e Roma, reproductions on a smaller scale of the two cities. With a local expert guide you'll be able to truly appreciate this man-made paradise.

Villa d'Este is perfect for a tour in the hot summertime, enjoy the coolness of waterfalls and sit in the shade of mighty ancient cypresses.
