Overview

    Come and discover an ancient city that was called the second Rome!
    It's hard to imagine, but once upon a time, during the heyday of the Roman Empire, this small village near the Adriatic coast was a bustling trading city which was the fourth largest city in Italy due to its grandeur and splendor!

    Aquileia is an exceptional archaeological site that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. We will visit the excavations and ancient remains of the Roman Forum, the necropolis and the imposing structures of the old river port.

    Do not miss the magnificent early Christian Basilica which houses the largest mosaic floor in the Western Christian world, an important stage in the history of European art.

    The last gem is the Domus Romana by Tito Macro. The largest reconstruction of a real Domus in Italy with original mosaic floors.

    In no other city - with the exception of Rome - is early Christianity as present as here. I'll take you to make it known!
