Relive some of the most exciting periods in Rome's history on this tour. In the Roman Forum, travel back in time to the 15th of March 44 BC, the day on which Julius Caesar, idolized by the people almost as a god on earth, is assassinated. Retrace his last day through the streets of Rome, and get immersed in the culture and daily life of the ancient world's greatest metropolis. Recreate the oratory of Cicero and uncover the lives of the emperors, which live on today in these evocative spaces. Relive the simultaneously fascinating and horrifying spectacles of death in the Colosseum that so often transfixed the Roman population. One of the cruelest and most enigmatic aspects of Roman culture, get an understanding of the place that this brutal entertainment had in ancient society. Learn about the lives of the gladiators, men who were compelled to live out a precarious existence on the sands of the arena, from their energy-sapping training to violent deaths before a blood-thirsty crowd. Finally, examine the awe-inspiring architecture of this iconic structure, and revive the ingenious engineering that made these violent spectacles possible. Fast-forward over 1,000 years and delve into the height of Rome's golden age in the enchanting streets and piazzas of the Renaissance and Baroque city, where timeless monuments await around every corner. Visit the Trevi Fountain, a stunning example of Baroque architecture, and a symbol of the city the world over. Water also plays a vital role in the theatrics of your final stop, Piazza Navona, where Gianlorenzo Bernini's Four Rivers Fountain dominates a space that still bears the traces of its ancient origins as a racetrack.
