Rome Sightseeing Tour at Sunrise with a Private Guide

Written by: Kate Zusmann

Rome Sightseeing Tour at Sunrise

After living in Rome for five years and traveling a lot, I’m sure that nothing can be better than exploring the new city during the sunrise. In the morning, Rome is not crowded with tourists, and the weather is not as hot as during the daytime. Moreover, when the city wakes up and birds start to sing, the Eternal city will belong only to you.

I invite you to see the “real Rome” with which I fell in love from first sight, and it became my home. Undoubtedly, this walk will become one of the brightest memories of your trip, and you would love to repeat this experience in every new city you visit. Moreover, we will discover the city’s most exciting and significant places, avoid the usual tourists’ paths, and spend this day as the local Romans do.

Check our video about:

We will start our exploration of the city with the leading site – the Colosseum.

During the 7-hours walking tour, you will explore and get to know about:

  1. The Colosseum (inside and outside). There is a unique excursion inside this site named “The Secrets of the Gladiators.”
  2. Triumphal arches of Constantine, Titus, and Septimius Severus
  3. Circus Maximus
  4. The Orange Garden
  5. The Aventine Keyhole: 3 nations can be seen in one keyhole
  6. The Mouth of Truth
  7. Panoramic view of Rome from 3 different observation decks on Aventine and Capitoline hills
  8. The Roman Forum from the best observation deck. There is a special excursion inside the Roman Forum, which lasts for 2 hours.
  9. Triumphal Arches of the Emperors
  10. Capitoline Square (Campidoglio Area)

——————-5-6 hours———————

  1. The Jewish Ghetto
  2. Mattei Palace (during the weekdays)
  3. The Turtle Fountain
  4. Shelter in ancient ruins, where Roman cats live
  5. The place where Julius Caesar was killed
    ——- 7-8 hours —–
  6. The Pantheon
  7. Navona Square and Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers
  8. The Imperial Forums
  9. Altar Of The Fatherland (Vittoriano) and the Venice Square
  10. Trajan’s Column – the largest and most beautiful of the extant nowadays

All the sites, squares, and monuments in almost empty and convenient Rome! We will do 1-2 stops in Roman café bars and visit beautiful churches so that the time will fly.

Also, you will recognize:

  • Interesting facts about life in Rome
  • Where to eat the best local food for low prices
  • How Romans use public transport for free

And you will try:

  • The real Italian breakfast, like locals do. Do you want cappuccino +croissant for 2-3 euro? Do you usually pay more?
  • Italian gelato – you will have a choice among 150 flavors of ice cream (during 7 and 8 hours tours)

Note: coffee and sweets are not included in the price; thus, are charged separately.

I recommend you options of 7 or 8 hours. Spends your time in Rome with maximum comfort and efficiency in the company of professionals!

On the next morning, I advise you to visit the program: Rome at dawn 2
