<p>AMAZING tour with a wonderful guide Vittoria hopefully spelled correctly. She was a pleasure to be with on our 2 person tour. She clearly has passion for Ostia Antica, having spent a lot of time there during her training and every day taking visitors there. This is such an incredible place much better preserved than Pompeii and much older as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour. Most visitors to Italy concentrate on Pompeii and other archeological sites and miss this. Don't! It's fabulous. There is a lot of walking and I would not recommend it to anyone with mobility issues unless you really have the stamina. Wear very comfortable shoes that can get dirty. My feet and shoes up to the ankles were covered in dust once it was over.</p>

Itinerary
Ostia Antica is a large archaeological site, close to the modern town of Ostia, that is the location of the harbour city of ancient Rome, 15 miles (25 kilometres) southwest of Rome. "Ostia" (plur. of "ostium") is a derivation of "os", the Latin word for "mouth". At the mouth of the River Tiber, Ostia was Rome's seaport, but due to silting the site now lies 3 kilometres (2 miles) from the sea. The site is noted for the excellent preservation of its ancient buildings, magnificent frescoes and impressive mosaics.
