Rome, known as the eternal city and home to the Vatican, is also the centrepiece of the Lazio region.

Venture through the Roman Forum where great Emperors once stood and let a private tour guide bring it to life on a walking tour of this breathtaking city. Take your mind back to ancient times and listen to the chant of the crowd as they cheer on a Gladiator fight in the Rome Colosseum. Visit the Vatican City. And after hours of marvelling at the Sistine Chapel and architecture built over 2000 years ago, take a well needed rest on the Spanish Steps, the meeting place for most Italian lovers. Dine on the traditional local dishes of porchetta and spaghetti alla carbonara and compliment your meal with the sweet aromatic taste of Frascati wine. Then, throw a coin over your left shoulder into the Trevi fountain so you will be sure to return to the Eternal city again.

Most famous for Rome, the Lazio region is located between the Apennine Mountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea and its countryside is laden with fertile landscape, wood lands, and idyllic lakes. So, outside the pulse of Rome, you can experience the tranquility of the gardens and fountains of Villa D’Este and other villas that served as country retreats for the upper echelons of Roman society. Or venture out to the main villages of the mysterious Etruscans (Italy’s oldest known settlers).Many visitors also choose to visit Rome and then venture south to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast.

Rome and the Lazio region will overwhelm your senses in every way.
