About this tour

Step into the streets of an ancient Roman port on a family-friendly Ostia Antica ruins tour. Meet your local guide at the archaeological site entrance and use skip-the-line entry to begin exploring without waiting in the ticket queue.

As you follow the old pathways, hear how Ostia Antica served Rome and how its residents lived and ate. Your guide brings the ruins to life with stories designed to keep children curious, while you visit landmarks such as the amphitheater, fountains, the Square of the Guilds, the main square, public baths, the Forum, and private homes. Learn how the town was abandoned after the fall of the Roman Empire, buried for nearly 1,000 years, and rediscovered in the 19th century.

This three-hour Ostia Antica ruins tour offers an engaging way for families to explore Roman history together, with a local guide and skip-the-line admission. Meet at the site entrance and discover the remains of a once-important port just outside Rome.

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.
