Itinerary
- 1Ancient city, Ostia Ancient is now a vast archeological site, located just 19 miles (30 km) West of Rome and the River Tiber. The town was abandoned and buried for ten centuries until it was rediscovered. It was one of the most thriving cities in the region, thanks to its status as Rome's harbor city. However, after the collapse of the Empire, the city fell into decadence, and it was eventually abandoned and remained untouched and magnificently preserved for centuries. Ostia Antica became Rome's main seaport during the Roman Republic (509 BC - 27 BC) and the city was largely enhanced by Julius Caesar and Tiberus during the Roman Empire. Nevertheless, the Romans slowly began to depend on other ports, meaning that the commercial activity in Ostia slowed down until it degenerated into decay during the IV century AD.

- ariastricindy0 contributionsPerfect way to see Rome!!That was the way to see Rome!! Our own private driver and tour guides. No lines no waiting. We had them all to ourselves and the experience was amazing. We saw so much with ease. The guides were warm, attentive, accommodating! We don't speak Italian so there was some difficulty understanding, at times, with our jet lagged brains or I would have given it a 5 star.Written September 22, 2024
- 611emanuell0 contributionsGreat experience, and must doThe tour guide was very knowledgeable and knew all of the history. He took us on a trip through time and explained all of the events relating to the Holy House. He explained the creativity behind the aestetics of the Holy House. I would definitely do it again. If you are staying in Loreto this company does tours as well.Written September 7, 2024
- 943reenab0 contributionsPadre PioAs a devotee, I hope people can differentiate tourist spot from sacred places like this one. San Giovanni Rotondo is Far from cities but reachable with public transportation. A beautiful place but we were there for 4-5hrs. Overall, its nice to add in your journey to see the pilgrims of Padre Pio.Written August 6, 2024

- Pioneer572222754850 contributionsAmazing!Our tours guides were awesome!!!! The day was filled with adventure and even though we could not do the boat ride because of rough waters it was worth taking this tour! The views and the sights of the island are absolutely stunning!

- Pioneer572222754850 contributionsAmazingOur tour guide’s Francisco and Roberto were outstanding! What an amazing day! Three great villages to see and visiting an amazing winery with great tasting wines!! Highly recommend!!Written March 13, 2024
- jonoQ2029KX0 contributionsA wonderful and moving experience!Our family of 5 from the US booked this trip as an excursion for a day to get out of busy Rome. A beautiful trip to the more rural Adriatic side of Italy. Two deeply moving spiritual sites that cannot be expressed with words. Francesco and Roberto took amazing care of us for the day and also sprinkled in some walks of the local towns along the way, local food (amazing arrosticini!!), and other surprises we appreciated. Thank you both again for a wonderful day!!Written October 28, 2023
- 20aldab0 contributionsA great to end Italy tripI could never have imagined a more beautiful experience from our recent day trip to Assisi and Cascia. A BIG Grazie to our tour host Juliana and her team Roberto, Rita and Madelina for their fantastic effort. They were tireless, very patient, friendly, considerate and made us feel special and like family all day long. Juliana and Roberto plus their excellent tour guides provided such a great insight into the history/story of the three saints. They allowed us to venerate, meditate, pray and connect with the peace of St Francis, St Claire and St Rita. So much to see, so many little things we never knew and learned with constant pleasant surprises at every turn make this tour into a life changing experience. This was one of the greatest tours my mum and I had in Italy. I highly recommend booking this luxury tour to Assissi and Cascia.Written September 25, 2023
- TravelorsRock0 contributionsExcellent Gem with Impressionist too!We spent two hours in this museum and enjoyed every bit of it. There have a wonderful grouping of lions sculptures on the steps as you enter. It looks like a pride lounging. I wanted to pet them. Inside there was a notable set of dog sculpture that looks to be in a tussle. There were many Spanish impressionist painting as well as a Van Gogh, two Courbets, a few Rodins and a single Cezanne. The rest of the museum had wonderful juxtaposition between modern and classic. Often we would look through the rooms to see a classical sculpture next to very modern pieces. Loved it. There is a nice cafe with table service. There of course were bathrooms, downstairs, and lockers for your backpack. There is a bus/tram stop right out front. Definitely worth a few hours of time!Written September 7, 2023
- C8259JIdianar0 contributionsMystical & Peaceful..I recommend taking a tour to make sure to visit the Chapel and the modern Church! A beautiful Mural Mosaic story telling comparative between Saint Francis of Assisi and Padre Pio not to be missed🙏🏼Written September 2, 2023
- JACKI880 contributionsAbove and Beyond Expectations!!This tour exceeded all expectations. Rosanna was an amazing guide who went above and beyond to make our experience a once in a lifetime opportunity. This trip was a personal pilgrimage for my 84 year old mother. Rosanna was able to secure us a private tour of the monastery, an audience with one of the sisters, with whom she could share her personal experiences with St Rita, and a first hand look at a new relic gifted to the basilica. My mother will never forget this trip. Her joy brings tears to my eyes whenever I think about it. And the trip to Roccaporena was the icing on the cake. Thank you Rosanna!!!Written August 16, 2023
- Vin W0 contributionsAn absolute must if you go to Capri - 10/10.We had an incredible time on the tour. Our tour guide, Mario, was amazing the entire time. He listened to our wishes, took us to fantastic places and gave us an insight into the sights at Capri. We highly recommend the tour and Mario as the guide. 10/10.Written July 28, 2023
- sofiau9380 contributionsAmazing!!!What an amazing and unforgettable experience we had with Rome Italy Explora. We spent three full days with Bianca, the most amazing tour guide, to Capri one day, Amalfi the next day, and ended at the Colosseum on the last. Our trip to Rome would have not been the same without theses experiences and amazing hospitality. We learned so much from Bianca and shared so many great memories as a family together! We hope to make it back to Italy soon and share more great memories with Explora.Written July 11, 2023
