Overview of your Rome tour

Having someone who can explain all the details of the area as you walk around it, will make Imperial Rome come alive. You'll learn how the Romans lived their lives, what they went to the Forum for, what sort shows entertained them at the Colosseum, and how they enviously looked up towards the Palatine Hill, where the Emperors lived in fantastic palaces with their own private stadiums and thermal baths. Not many people know that the whole area was dug out at the time of Mussolini, less than 100 years ago, and that those who visited Rome before than could only see some chunks of columns half buried in the ground with cows and sheep grazing all over the place. There is plenty to learn from these sights and it will be my pleasure to be your private guide while you visit my beloved city.
