Tour Details
Private Lo Zodiaco Experience
Leave the port behind as you board your exclusive van for a scenic drive through the Tuscan countryside to Monte Mario, the highest hill in Rome. Your small group will observe this 456 foot high hill that is part nature reserve, part upmarket district and contains the Monte Mario Conservatory. It is also home to Lo Zodiaco, a small restaurant that has been faithfully serving hilltop visitors delicious food and spectacular views for over 50 years. Follow the steep, narrow street up to the top, getting eye-level with San Peter's Dome along the way.
Upon arrival you will enter Lo Zodiaco and be greeted by its friendly staff and original 1950's style. Enjoy an aperitif and a glass of prosecco with dessert. On the Lovers Walkway you will enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Rome, one of the most visited cities in the world. From here you can see the famed monuments without all the bustling crowds and chaos at the street level.
On your left you will find the Olympic Stadium and the Altar of the Fatherland; on the right you can see the Colosseum far away on the horizon. On a clear day you might also be able to see the outline of the Apennines! This is the perfect place to pop that all-important question or to seal your love with a lock on one of the most beautiful terraces in the world (upon request).
Reserve this private, exclusive full-day tour now for a magical time on Monte Mario at the Lo Zodiaco restaurant.
