Be amazed by the remarkably well-preserved ruins of Ancient Ostia, dating back to the 4th century BC. Once a major Roman city due to its strategic location and harbor, Ostia served as a port for republican Rome and a commercial hub during the empire. The Romans regarded Ostia as their first colony, attributing its founding for salt production to their fourth king. At its peak in the early 2nd century CE, Ostia had a population of around 50,000, housed in tall brick apartment buildings of three to five stories. On the Ancient Ostia Private Tour, you’ll explore mosaic-paved floors and intricately painted walls, stroll down the main street, the Decumanus Maximus, and see ancient houses, taverns, baths, grocers, and apartments. Admire the still-intact mosaics and take in the view of the amphitheater.
