Summary
Rome was once the most powerful city in the Mediterranean, sending out soldiers, administrators and traders to order the affairs of provinces as far apart as Britian and Mesopotamia. Within a small area, thousands of years of cultural history have left incomparable riches of art and architecture in their wake. On this tour archaeologist and Italiophile, Oliver Gilkes, is on hand to help you unravel this complex web of history. Exploring with Oliver, we meet the Romans at every level of society from the senatorial grandeur of the Forum to sailors and merchants at the once bustling harbour at Ostia.
What to Expect
- Admire the unique Pantheon, so influential to Renaissance architects in later millennia
- Explore the Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre ever built
- Discover the extraordinary site of Ostia Antica outside the city
