Piazza Navona is one of Rome’s most relevant landmarks, and a perfect place to start our tour through history. Admire Gianlorenzo Bernini and Francesco Borromini’s work at the Fountain of the Rivers and Church of Saint Agnes. Go underground and discover a completely different scenery at the archeological remains of the Stadium of Domitian. Built in the first century, the stadium hosted Gladiators fights, horse races and other athletic contests. You’ll be granted with a free entry to the “Gladiators and sports agony: Weapons and armors of the Roman Empire” Expo, with more than 300 objects on display.
Later we will take you to Theater Marcello and the former Forum Holitorium, one of the biggest ancient Roman market places. Explore Forum Boarium, the place where the first gladiatorial fights took place. And finally, enter Cirucus Maximus, the biggest chariot racing stadium that hosted 150.000 spectators.
