Situated in Colosseo Square, Colosseum (Flavian Amphitheatre) is one of the renowned tourist hotspots in Rome. Visit this massive structure with Italy tour packages for a glimpse into Rome’s ancient past dating over 2000 years. Sitting on the eastern bank of River Tiber, it is known for its impressive Roman architecture, featuring four storeys and a seating area for 80,000 spectators. Back then, it was the main venue for public executions, animal hunts and entertainment events. With a length of 189 metres, width of 156 metres and height of 50 metres, Colosseum was and continues to be the largest amphitheatre on the earth.
Roman Forum
Also known as ‘Forum Romanum’, Roman Forum is another prominent landmark in Rome. Built in the 7th century, it was the epicentre of social, political and commercial activities of the Romans. Situated in a valley between Capitoline and Palatine Hills, the Forum provides an incredible insight into the life and traditions of ancient Rome. Walk along the historic Via Sacra pathway and explore the ancient ruins. The Roman Forum features several religious structures, including the Temple of Saturn and Temple of Vesta. Additionally, many political buildings, law courts, meeting places and open-air markets are also housed within the site.
Pantheon
Whether you are history buff or not, you cannot miss Pantheon from your itinerary. Constructed in the 2nd century, this iconic temple is the most beautiful relic of ancient Rome that has withstood the test of time. While the actual purpose of its construction remains undiscovered till date, historians believe it to be dedicated to twelve Gods that Romans prayed to due to its dome’s resemblance to heaven. Therefore, Pantheon has been nicknamed as the ‘Sphinx of the Campus Martius’ due to its mysterious history, purpose, and design.
Trevi Fountain
No Rome tour is complete without the coin tossing tradition into the spectacular Trevi Fountain which ensures a return to the city! Designed by renowned Italian architect Nicola Salvi, Trevi Fountain is not just a landmark but a symbol of Rome’s rich past, cultural beauty and art. It is the largest fountain in the city, built in Baroque-style architecture. The monument showcases the chariot of Greek God Oceanus being pulled by sea horses. It also features several mythical figures and wild horses, everything built using white travertine stone. Don’t forget to take a picture in front of the fountain!
St. Peter's Basilica

Built between 1506 and 1615, this UNESCO-listed basilica is among the largest churches in the world. Marvel at its stunning Renaissance and Baroque-style architecture with a massive central dome, a grand facade and a bronze canopy over the high altar. Moreover, it holds huge significance for Catholics worldwide as Saint Peter, the chief of Jesus’s Apostles and first Pope, has been buried here.
Vatican Museums
Want to dive deeper into the history of Rome? Head straight to Vatican Museums (Musei Vaticani), a group of 26 public museums located right in the heart of Rome. Founded in 1506 by Pope Julius II, these museums provide a glimpse into the history and achievements of humankind from over 2000 years. Here, you can explore extensive collections of classic Roman sculptures, Egyptian antiquities, Renaissance artworks, Etruscan artifacts, Christian inscriptions, and many other masterpieces from ancient to contemporary times.
Sistine Chapel
Take a tour of Sistine Chapel, housed within the majestic Apostolic Palace (the official residence of the Pope). Completed in 1508 in Vatican City, the chapel is a striking example of Renaissance art and architecture. Its interiors are decorated with frescoes by multiple artists that will leave you in awe of their beauty and depiction of different Biblical events. Among the most celebrated ones are those painted on its barrel-vaulted ceiling by Michelangelo, especially where he has showcased the scenes of ‘The Last Judgment’ and the ‘Creation of Adam’.
