Circo Massimo
Afterward, sit back and relax as you board the coach for the second part of your journey. Along the way, pass the historic Circus Maximus, once home to thrilling chariot races, before arriving at the world-renowned Colosseum.
Colosseum
One of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Colosseum is a symbol of ancient Roman engineering and power.
