(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Arcibasilica di San Giovanni in LateranoPass-by Only
San Giovanni in Laterano is the oldest of the four main basilicas of the eternal city. It is the cathedral of the Diocese of Rome and the official ecclesiastical seat of the Pope. San Giovanni in Laterano is the first of the four major basilicas in Rome and the oldest in Christianity. The Basilica, which stands near Mount Celio, was built on the same site as the basilica built by Constantine, around 314, on land already owned by the noble Lateran family, from which the whole area takes its name.
Parco del Celio
On the slopes of the Celio, below the Basilica of Saints John and Paul, there is the extraordinary archaeological complex which contains over four centuries of history and testifies to the passage and coexistence between paganism and Christianity. Access opens from the Clivo di Scauro, an ancient Roman road and main axis of the Celio, which has preserved part of its original route. The Domus, discovered in 1887 by Father Germano di San Stanislao, rector of the Basilica at the time, represent one of the most fascinating places in underground Rome due to the extraordinary state of conservation of the rooms and the very high artistic value and religious interest of the site.
Parco di Colle Oppio
Colle Oppio is one of the three mountains of the Esquiline Hill, the southernmost of it, immediately north-east of the Colosseum. Its public park preserves vestiges such as the important Domus Aurea or the remains of the baths of Trajan and Titus. It was furnished around 1930 by the architect Raffaele di Vico, after an old project of an English-style park from 1870, enriched with fountains and water features. At the foot of the hill, you can see the ruins of the main ancient gladiator school, the Ludus Magnus. On the hill we discover splendid views of the Colosseum and the Palatine.
