Discover Rome in a Day

With your expert guide at your side and private driver on hand, you will unlock the city’s most iconic sites, moving seamlessly from the majesty of the Vatican to the power of the Colosseum.

Walk in the footsteps of saints and emperors, artists and gladiators. From masterpieces of the Renaissance to ruins of a long-lost empire, this tour unveils the full arc of Rome’s glory — all in a single, captivating day.

Wander Through the Treasures of the Vatican Museums

Your journey begins at the Vatican Museums, where priority entrance ensures you skip all the lines and step straight into one of the world’s greatest collections of art. As you move through ancient sculptures, Renaissance tapestries, and majestic galleries, your private guide will highlight the Vatican’s most fascinating and significant treasures.

Stand Beneath Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel

Your path through the museums leads to one of the most extraordinary artistic achievements in history — the Sistine Chapel. As you gaze up in wonder at Michelangelo’s ceiling, your guide will help you decode its rich imagery, pointing out the stories, symbolism, and genius brushwork that have captivated visitors for centuries. This moment alone is worth the journey to Rome.

Marvel at Saint Peter’s Square

Step into the grandeur of Saint Peter’s Square, framed by Bernini’s sweeping colonnades. Take in the view of Saint Peter’s Basilica — the spiritual heart of the Catholic world — and absorb the power and serenity that this sacred space emanates. Your guide will share the stories and architectural secrets behind the square and its magnificent centerpiece.

Travel to the Mighty Colosseum

Your driver will then whisk you from the Vatican across the city to the Colosseum — Rome’s most iconic monument. With your priority entrance, you’ll bypass the lines and enter directly into the ancient arena where thousands once gathered for gladiatorial combat and public spectacle. As you explore the massive structure, your guide will breathe life into the ruins with tales of emperors, warriors, and roaring crowds.

Conclude at the Roman Forum Overlook

Your experience ends at the Roman Forum, looking over at a panoramic view into what was once the beating heart of ancient Rome. From here, with the ruins of temples and triumphal arches spread out before you, your guide will narrate the rise and fall of an empire whose legacy still shapes the world today.

This immersive six-hour tour is the perfect way to experience the Eternal City — its art, its power, its soul — all in one exceptional day.
