Meet and greet upon arrival and proceed directly to your Hotel for check in by 1400hrs. Then you can take your Rome Open Top Double Decker Bus Tour. This is a tremendous way to see this incredible City for the first time, to get your bearings and to visit many of the major sights in a relatively short time period. Comfortable and convenient, this tour offers you the opportunity to remain on the bus for the entire loop, listening to the informative audio commentary, or to hop on and off at each attraction. There are 2 routes for this tour. The RED LINE travels via Marsala, Colosseo, Circo Massimo, Bocca della Verità, Piazza Venezia and Vaticano. The BLUE LINE goes through Largo di Villa Peretti, Colosseo, Circo Massimo, Isola Tiberina, Piazza Venezia and Vaticano. There are so many things to see in the Eternal City, from the Trevi Fountain to the Colosseum. Rome’s abundant sights rival those of any other City on the planet, in terms of their beauty, historical importance and ability to simply take your breath away. Whether your interests lie in antiquity, architecture, cuisine, culture, Religion, shopping or sport, Rome has something to suit all tastes. Stroll through the Pantheon, marvel at Michelangelo’s Piazza del Campidoglio and admire the Swiss Guardsmen of Vatican City. Try a ‘proper’ spaghetti alla Carbonara near the Spanish Steps or sit back with a coffee and people-watch in Piazza Navona. Alternatively, if you fancy a break from Rome sightseeing, act like a local and take in a Lazio or Roma match at the Olympic Stadium. Overnight at Hotel.
