We’re getting out of the crowds and the heat in Rome to it’s ancient heart by the light of the moon and stars.

Our guide leads us to panoramic terraces and secret vantage points for once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunities of the glowing Colosseum, Roman Forum,and Palatine Hill by night.

More than a tour among the ruins, the narrative walks the readers through a city of antiquity ruling the world, not bluffing historical facts intermingled with myth and barbaric things with brilliance.

Heads full of power-hungry emperors beat against a background of daily life’s heart and the fierce juxtapositions that made up ancient Rome.

What was needed to create a city that would be supreme for centuries, and why did it ‘die’? We will uncover the mysteries and marvels of ancient Rome by uncovering the greatness of this powerful ancient city through engaging stories and expert insights.
