We had an overwhelming Tour to the Ancient City of Ostia. Its a huge area of quite intact buildings that makes it easy to visualize early Roman life. A must see for people interested in early history and archeology. Our guide Mario was knowledgeable enthusiastic and personally authentic in his way of explaining, and took time to answer our questions. Thankyou!
