Overview

30 minutes away from the hustle and bustle of the big city is a little visited place with a magical atmosphere. An experience in many ways superior to the visit of Pompeii which died out under the ashes of Vesuvius in 79 AD. while Ostia continued to prosper until the fourth century. You will walk along the main roads (Cardo and Decumano) still covered by the ancient Roman pavement, to discover places, habits, daily life of the ancient Romans. The guide is a person full of humor who makes the walk enjoyable and interesting. He will tell you details that are not found in the written guides and will take you by the hand to the most evocative corners of the ancient city ... don't forget your comfortable shoes !!!

Kingston 1000 Islands Dinner Cruise

Published on Sep, 2023

We immensely enjoyed our sunset dinner cruise with Kingston 1000 Island Cruises. We sailed on the 17th of August on the Island Star out of Kingston. We had reserved a premium table next to the window which was wonderful and we were only one row away from the front of the vessel with a great view of the band that was performing east coast music. Our starters were delicious with a nice selection of cheeses and fruit and the amuse bouche of the tomato and bocconcini. We ordered the French 75 and the Mimosa-rita for our drinks. The French 75 (gin, prosecco and lemon) was just perfect but I didn’t like my Mimosa-Rita and our server (Karlee) replaced it with an Aperol Spritz at no additional cost. The Spritz was good…but a little dash of St. Germain would make it better :) The salad was fresh and tasty and our meals were unexpectedly delicious. Immense compliments to Wheelhouse Culinary! My husband had the Braised rib and I had the Arctic char - both were plentiful and beautifully presented. The rib was cooked to perfection and fell apart . It was very flavourful and the artic char melted in my mouth. I had ordered a side of sautéed mushrooms and they were perfect - nicely done and a perfect accompaniment to both our meals. Karlee - our server - was patient and kind and efficient…a big thank you to her. Now to the cruise…it was a beautiful night - great sunset and we were able to escape the rain which occurred during our cruise and conveniently ended when we returned to port…great timing on the captains part! We were able to see some sights before the sun set and the band leader gave us some local history on our way out of port…as well as details on the geography of what we were passing by. We greatly enjoyed the band - unfortunately they had a problem with one of their amplifiers when water (from the rain) shorted it out. They took it in their stride and continued to play with one amp and a smile. We highly recommended this tour!

Wonderful tour guide and very interesting ruins. Can't miss the amphitheater! 5 stars.

Micaela was outstanding. She has a wonderful way of showing all of the sites and explaining what it looked like to live in the town. She also answered our questions regarding Roman history and things we saw in Rome. Highly recommend her tour of Ostia and also anything else in Rome. One of the highlights of the trip.
