Rome for Kids by SoundGuides
Turn the city break of your children into a history lesson, geography field trip and language introduction - without them even noticing.
Those ruined buildings, chipped statues and dilapidated monuments are brought to life with our animated audio guide. We make both the journey and the city fun and educational by getting to the story behind the locations.
If you show them a collection of fallen down marble columns, that exactly what they'll see. But if you tell them that they're looking at the exact spot where Rome was besieged, captured and sacked in 410 by the barbarian Alaric's army then that's what they'll imagine.
Our City for Pioneers Guides are pitched differently. We make the boring brilliant, the old awesome and the ordinary interesting.
While we cover some of the same attractions as the adult tour it's presented in a whole new way.
Exciting, interesting, engaging and stimulating.
The Pioneers Guide contains:
* History: Myths, legends and tales
* Heroes and villians: Stories to make their hair curl
* What's hot and what's not
* Attractions: A mini guide to the best of the city
* Animated archaeology and interesting insights- Price:$ 8.00

Heart of Rome
Piazzas, palazzos and pizza!
The heart of Rome is an outdoor art gallery with magnificent palaces, statues and sparkling fountains...and Italians driving, shouting, gesturing and drinking coffee in between it all! You're invited to join them as you wander through theatrical squares and little cobbled streets. Piazza Navona and Campo de Fiori with its colourful market are on your route, as is the amazing Roman temple, the Pantheon. Don't like art? You might after this walk! Don't like ice-cream? Sorry, there's no hope....
Starting point: Piazza Farnese- Price:$ 10.00
