Why choose this Rome tour ?
Learn about Ancient and modern Roman history as only a gay-friendly guide can tell it!
Your tour begins at the spot where Julius Caesar was betrayed and killed. Then, walk along the imperial Forum – the political and social heart of the Roman Empire. Learn about Julius Caesar and how homosexuality was viewed socially in Ancient Rome.
At the Capitoline Hill, climb 124 marble steps to reach the Basilica of Santa Maria in Ara Coeli where we’ll come across a lesser known sight: the simple tomb of Michelangelo’s young lover.
From here, you’ll walk over to “Opium Hill” where you will visit the Basilica of St. Peter in Chains. Inside, encounter one of Michelangelo’s most celebrated sculptures: the horned Moses.
Finally, stop for a drink with your group (own expense) at a famous gay pub on Rome’s “Gay Street” while enjoying the view of the Ludus Magnus — the ruins of the Gladiator school.
