The experience
The evening starts with the Colosseum glowing before you. Your guide brings gladiators and emperors to life in easy stories, and you get time for photos from chosen viewpoints. Then the ride reaches the Pantheon, Rome's best preserved ancient temple, and Bernini's fountain of four rivers in Piazza Navona.
On the Capitoline Hill, Michelangelo's square looks out over the Roman Forum and the rooftops, and the photo chances are excellent at night. At Torre Argentina, protected cats live among ruins of four Republican-era temples, cared for by local volunteers. The Great Synagogue's square dome rises by the Tiber, and Campo de' Fiori buzzes with cafés and bars.
The Temple of Hercules Victor is lit up at night, and the Temple of Portunus stands almost intact by the Tiber. The Theatre of Marcellus shows two thousand years of layers, and Piazza Farnese has twin fountains made from ancient Roman basins. The tour closes at the Portico of Octavia, in the old Jewish Ghetto.
