Afterward, enjoy a beautiful view of Rome from Janiculum Hill and see Circus Maximus, the site of the Roman chariot races, with its evocative views of the sprawling ruins of the emperor’s palaces on Palatine Hill.
After a 1-hour and a half break for lunch (which is not included), you will have a private skip-the-line tour of the symbol of the ancient Roman world, the Colosseum.
