Rome, in the Lazio region, is an amazing city. Full of history, it is perfect for those who love culture.

Shall we explore the subject a little bit more? Also read: What to do with children in Italy?

Golden Tip:

When you start organizing your trip, call your children to participate in everything from the beginning! Include them when choosing tours, ask if they have something specific in mind, what they would like to see, to know. They will feel like an integral part of the trip and will love choosing specific tours dedicated to them! Do some research before starting the “meeting” and offer the available options!

Let’s visit some places:

Leonardo’s exhibition

One of the most famous names in Italy offers children a very special tour, which brings together fun, mysteries, history and culture. It is the Leonardo Exhibition that presents a very playful tour that holds the attention of children in an incredible way!

The proposal is very interesting, as it presents us with the opportunity to be in the heart of the Eternal City and offers us the chance to choose the route, what to see, how long to stay in a monument and follow the tour at our own pace. Also read: What to do in Rome when it rains?

Useful information:

Despite this freedom, it is good to remember that, for each stage conquered, points are offered to the little ones that the more points they gather, the more clues about where the treasure is. It really is a very interesting, dynamic and fun experience. It lasts about 3 hours and costs from 40 euros per person. I suggest you book in advance and you can buy the tour here!
