An unforgettable experience at Ostia Antica

Rebecka_B, Aug 2023

Our family of six recently embarked on a tour of Ostia Antica and we couldn't have asked for a more incredible experience. From start to finish, our tour guides Chiara and Federico went above and beyond to ensure that we had an unforgettable time. The three-hour walking tour took us through the fascinating Ostia Antica archaeological site, where we were able to immerse ourselves in the rich history and culture of ancient Rome. Chiara and Federico's extensive knowledge and passion for the subject truly brought the ruins to life, making the experience both educational and entertaining. But the tour didn't stop there. We also had the opportunity to visit the Borghetto, a stunning castle and courtyard nestled within a medieval citadel. The small group size created an intimate atmosphere where we could ask questions and engage in meaningful conversations. We finished the tour with an Italian Aperitivo. We enjoyed our drinks accompanied by a delectable variety of cheeses and cold cuts, while chatting and sharing stories about Italy and its captivating way of life. It was the perfect way to unwind and soak in the ambiance of this remarkable place. What truly set this tour apart was the genuine care and attention provided by Chiara and Federico. They ensured that every detail was taken care of, including arranging transportation to and from Rome. Their local expertise and love for Ostia Antica added an extra layer of authenticity and enthusiasm to the entire experience. We left the tour with a profound appreciation for Ostia Antica and a new understanding of its historical significance. If you're seeking an unforgettable Italian adventure, I highly recommend booking this tour. Grazie mille, Chiara and Federico - till next time!
