Ostia Antica Archaeological Walking Tour with Gelato 2 hr 30 min

Walk through the layered history of Ostia on a relaxed small-group tour led by local Roman guides. This Ostia Antica Archaeological Walking Tour follows the streets and alleys of the ancient harbor, once an important naval base for imperial Rome, with a group capped at six for an easygoing, conversational pace.

Explore the archaeological park’s remarkable remains, including temples, thermal baths, homes, shops, factories, defensive walls, and a necropolis. Admission is not included, so arrange your park ticket separately. The walk then continues beyond the ruins to the Borghetto, a remarkably preserved medieval settlement enclosed by fortified walls and watched over by a 15th-century Renaissance castle commissioned by Pope Julius II. The seven-day park ticket also covers the nearby castle and the Archeosite of Portus, a 10-minute drive away.

Italian gelato brings the experience to a sweet close. Reach the meeting point by public transportation or private transfer, then discover the stories and scenery that make Ostia Antica Archaeological Walking Tour a memorable Roman outing. Join the walk and see the ancient harbor at street level.
