Rome Trip Overview
Some could argue taking the time to visit the ancient sea port of Ostia Antica affords a better glimpse of Ancient Rome than even the Forum! Leave the city and head towards the sea with our driver and guide to explore Rome’s version of Pompeii – Ostia Antica. Originally the city’s storehouse and a lively port town which welcomed ships and their exotic cargos from across the empire, it was buried beneath sediment for over 1500 years and today offers one of the best glimpses of what Rome was like during her ‘Golden Age’.
