Ostia Antica

Just a quick addition: my parents live close to Ostia Antica so we visited quite a lot with the kids until about 5 years ago. Sitting to eat your lunch was not a problem. We just sat on the steps of the theatre/arena, where everyone else sat. The children then had fun finding the right spot down on the "stage" which had the perfect acoustics - they would whisper and we would tell them, from the top, if we could hear them. It would keep them happy for ages!

Thanks Mark. I had a couple of hours to spare before flying out of Rome Ciampino, so though I'd give my son and his friend a bit of exposure to ancient Rome in the form of a walk along the Appian Way as reached from the airport. As we walked along, with me expounding as to ancient tombs of Roman nobility, it was soon clear they were seriously distracted by all the ladies of the night plying their trade in the middle of the afternoon. Sounds like Ostia Antica would have been a better bet!
