Overview of your Rome tour:

Ostia was founded as a fortified port at the mouth of the Tiber river in the beginning of the 4th century B. C. After the defeat of the Etruscan town Veio, it immediately became a river port, acquiring a commercial function to supply Rome with food stuff. The urban aspect soon changed and Ostia became a city of 150 acres where more than 50, 000 people lived. We'll enjoy the breathtaking views and aided by maps drawings and inscriptions we'll explore the area: Roman theatre, Baths, public fountains, public latrine, barrack of Fire brigade, temples of different cults, the Forum (centre of political life), square of the Corporations, the shops (butcher, bakery and mill, wine bar, fishmonger, laundry) the dwellings (House of Amor and Psyche, House of the Charioteer). . . More than 100 years of excavations rediscovered mosaics, frescoes, and amazing architectures. We will see a little and fabulous ancient Rome! A little Pompeii close to Rome, come on, let's go!
