Tours
Aventine & the South
Off-the-beaten-path Rome: ancient walls, river views and the legendary Mouth of Truth.
For travelers who already know the basics or want to escape the crowds. We start at an Egyptian pyramid (yes, in Rome), follow the wall that defended the city for centuries, climb the Aventine for Tiber views and the famous keyhole, pass the Circus Maximus and end by sticking our hand into the Mouth of Truth.
