Discover the legend of Rome
The denomination of legend comes from the Latin "things to read" and generally it is a story, an adventure in which the historical elements are deformed by popular imagination.
Rome has 3000 years of history and it's not easy to focus the attention of the main historical highlights during your tours of Rome: in fact only if you take a private excursion of Rome you will be able to discover more details about the most historical city in the world.
In fact the legend was inspired by facts and real places, that came modified with free adaptations that of it emphasized the fantastic characters of it. But pay attention not to confuse legend with fiaba, in how much the legend contrarily to the fiaba, contains a truth nucleus.
An example of legend on the ancient Rome is without doubt the narration of the death of Romulus , first king of Rome, son of the Vestal Rhea Silvia and of the God Mars, which passing in review its army in the Campo Marzio was victim during a thunderstorm with thunders and lightnings of a hold-up from his father Mars who carried him in paradise, making him disappear from the sight of men.
From here the cohabitation between real and the imaginary collective. And imagine to walk inside the roman forum with a personal guide how evocative will be for your understanding of the facts about Rome.
The certainties, instead, are the still alive testimonies of imposing masterpieces and true made works of art from men of 2500 years ago, with little means at their disposal, having allowed with the single force of their arms and the skill of their hands to leave an indelebile print and to conserve until our time what we could define a legend and allowing to fill up thousands and thousands of history books, the HISTORY OF ROME.
Narrating the ancient history of Rome make us, driving guides of Rome, every day more proud to take care of our customers when they are enjoying their holidays.
