Following breakfast, we will discover the Eternal City for a full day.

Our minibus will leave the hotel and take us to the city center of Rome for a visit of the Ancient City.

​

Start your experience right outside the famous Colosseum. Here your expert guide will give you an introduction to the Colosseum, its creation, the histories and tales of the Gladiators.

After the introduction, the guide will take us inside the Colosseum (we will avoid queues with a fast track priority access) and - since our little friends are not allowed inside - our dog escort will take care of them while you enjoy the visit.

Once inside we will explore the magnificent structure and have a special access to the Gladiator floor!
Roam the 80 arches and meander through the walkways where spectators would have gathered to watch the games.

Following the Colosseum visit, we will head off to the Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum, the social, political, and religious centre of the Roman Empire. Our expert guide on Roman History, will tell you all the about the myths of Remus and Romulus, the founders of Rome.

Next, head down to the Roman Forum, the center of Ancient Rome and public life. Take in the incredible ruins and enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Colosseum.

​

You will end your tour of Rome on the Capitoline Hill, reaching the Terrazza Caffarelli a magnificent and exclusive location, situated just next to the Capitoline Museums. Here you will admire the Capital City, getting lost amid the timid rooftops of the houses located in the heart of the Eternal City, and enjoy an espresso like a true local. ​

​

• Dog break! / Dog gourmet lunch!

Back in the city center, after the visit we will take some time to feed our pets and offer them a nice gourmet food break made by a professional dog chef!

We will then slowly continue our walk towards the Spanish Steps where we will take some time for shopping and relaxing.

​

In the late afternoon we will have a fun Street Food tour!

With behind-the-scenes visits to delis and cheese shops, and much much more, you’ll get a 360-degree experience of one of the greatest foodie cities in the world.

Your tour begins in a place that is surprising to many, but not to anyone who knows anything about the history of Roman Food: the old Jewish Ghetto. In the company of your expert foodie guide, you’ll pop into one of the neighborhood’s beloved trattorias and taste traditional, seasonal Roman starters as you learn how Jewish culture has influenced Roman food over the course of some 2,000 years. 

​

Leaving the Ghetto, you’ll continue your food tour to taste and learn the history of gastronomy in Rome. You’ll learn about the long history of local cheesemaking as you taste Pecorino Romano and other Italian cheeses over a bottle of local white wine. Pairing food and drink is very important to Romans so, why not try other iconic pairings, such as the deep-fried mozzarella and rice balls called supplì with a glass of Italian craft beer. Craft beer in Italy? That’s right, Italians are some of the most enthusiastic brewers in Europe and their beer is just one of the many unexpected highlights of this experience. 

Another is the encyclopaedic range of charcuterie, from salamis spiked with fennel, truffles or Barolo wine, to cured pork and a few surprises, you’ll enjoy a wide range of meats along with a nice glass of red wine. 

Be sure to save some room because we have saved the best for last.

After a quick tasting of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, you’ll taste the most famous Italian dish in the world: pizza! The dough, already risen and waiting, will be kneaded out into a (near) perfect circle; after spreading just the right amount of tangy tomato sauce, your pizza will be ready for you! Finally, you’ll do as the Italians do and stroll comfortably through the city, stopping for a cup or cone of gelato. 
This tour is wonderfully in-depth and hands-on. As you eat your way through the city and its history, your guide will also give you practical tips and suggestions on how to avoid tourist traps and eat well during your stay in Rome. You won’t just leave with a full belly; you’ll leave with a lot of new knowledge of Italian food. 

​

• Dog break! / Dog gourmet dinner!

After this fun and interesting progressive dinner, we will board our minibus and return the hotel where you will have plenty of time to feed your best friend with another meal prepared by a professional dog chef.

The evening will be at leisure at the hotel.
