Rome Ostia Antica Ruins Tour 3 hr

Step beyond modern Rome to explore Ostia Antica, the remarkably preserved ruins of the city’s ancient seaport. Set between the Tiber River and the Tyrrhenian Sea, this historic site offers a vivid glimpse into the world that once connected Rome with the Mediterranean.

Travel by private tour with hotel pickup and drop-off, accompanied by an English-speaking driver. At the ruins, a professional art historian guide leads a three-hour visit, bringing context to Ostia’s origins as a military colony, probably founded in the 4th century BC to guard the river mouth. By the 2nd century BC, it had become a busy commercial port as Rome’s influence spread across the Mediterranean. Tickets, food, drinks, and gratuities are not included.
