About this tour

Step into the streets of ancient Rome at Ostia Antica, the city’s first Roman colony and one of the world’s largest archaeological sites. On this private 150-minute tour, an expert archaeological guide and graphic reconstructions bring everyday life here into focus.

Walk the Decumanus Maximus, the main thoroughfare, then admire the mosaics of the Baths of Neptune and the theater decorated with marble masks. At Forum Square, look up to the Capitolium, a temple dedicated to Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva. Explore insulae, the ancient city’s apartment buildings, alongside patrician domus, shops, and a thermopolium, where Romans bought prepared food. You’ll also encounter the public latrinae and learn details about daily routines. Skip-the-line entry tickets are included, and your guide will meet you holding a sign with your name. Please note that the mosaics are covered during winter for preservation.

Choose this Ostia Antica Ancient Rome Private Tour for a vivid, guided look at the city beyond its grand monuments. Follow the old streets and discover the traces of ordinary Roman life.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
