Once the heart of the Roman Empire, modern day Rome is still steeped in history. With its historical treasures peppered all over the city, student trips to Rome offer a fascinating insight into what life was like over 2000 years ago.
Undoubtedly one of the most iconic ancient structures in the world, educational trips to Rome wouldn’t be complete without exploring the Colosseum. The largest amphitheatre ever built, History and Archaeology students can analyse the part the Colosseum played in Roman life, from hosting gladiatorial contests to showcasing animal hunts.
As well as its historical significance, Rome is also home to the Vatican City, headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church. A fantastic opportunity for Religious Studies and Art and Design students, scholars can explore the extensive Vatican Museums which display around 20,000 artworks. Alongside the Vatican Museums is the Sistine Chapel - boasting Michelangelo’s world-famous ceiling and Raphael’s Stanze di Raffaello, the breath-taking building draws in millions of visitors each year.
At FHT, we organise a number of fantastic student trips to Rome. For more information about Rome student travel, get in touch with one of our in-house experts, who will happy to design a tour tailored to your group’s needs.
