Itinerary
Day 1
Private guided visit to the Capitoline Museums on Capitoline Hill. The guide meets the group at the museum entrance and leads a paced, seated-friendly visit across the main galleries and piazza viewpoints.
Capitoline Museums
Two-hour private guided visit to the Capitoline Museums (Musei Capitolini). The guide will focus on the key works that tell the story of Rome, including the Capitoline she-wolf and major ancient sculptures. The pace is adjusted for guests needing frequent seated breaks; the tour includes time to admire Piazza del Campidoglio and views toward the Roman Forum.
Tips from local experts:
- Meet the guide 10 minutes before the scheduled start at the main entrance on Piazza del Campidoglio (Piazza del Campidoglio, 1). This allows time for a calm, assisted entry and security checks.
- The museum is not wheelchair- or stroller-accessible and includes staircases between some rooms; guests with limited mobility should plan for seated breaks and bring any required mobility aids for short transfers.
- Wear smart-casual clothing and comfortable, non-slip shoes. Carry a small bag for personal items—the guide will advise on where to leave larger bags during the visit.
