Nat Geo Day Tour: Discovering the Rome of Julius Caesar

The infamous Julius Caesar has always been a subject of curiosity and intrigue. His legacy stretches through the centuries, with his achievements – and ego - changing the history of Rome forever. Your historian and archaeologist guide specialises in this period. Their stories and insights will open up the ancient world of power struggles, war exploits and socio-political reform that made Caesar and the early emperors of Rome so fascinating.

Begin on the hill of the Piazza del Campidoglio, with views of the Roman Forum ruins, where elections, public speeches and processions were once held. Here, you’ll learn about Julius Caesar’s meteoric rise to the political prime time, as well as the evolution of the Forum under Rome’s early emperors.

You’ll take in the Porticus Octaviae and the Theatre of Marcellus, often seen as a mini version of the Colosseum with its own impressive arches, before reaching the Largo di Torre Argentina and Theatre of Pompey. It was here, as Julius Caesar approached the Senate, that he was famously assassinated on the Ides of March, 44 BC. Your guide will share the inside story of the conspiracy, shedding light on how, despite expanding the empire and passing laws supporting the poor, Caesar’s arrogance and desire for total power sealed his fate.

Round off your gallop through Roman history at the majestic Pantheon. From its colourful marble floors to its imposing domed ceiling and central oculus, it reflects all the might and glory of the Roman Empire.
