Guidekin's take

A twilight walk through the oldest part of the city, from Piazza Venezia and the Vittoriano over the Capitoline for the Forum view, through Monti where Caesar was born, and on to the Colosseum as the lights come on.

The guide and the walk are included at €33 per person, tips are not. You get the guide's name and number before the day, which helps on Roman streets.

In our comparison: #51 of 56 in Night Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
