Discovery: A Family Adventure through Rome’s Stories, Streets, and Secrets

EDUCATIONAL TRIPS

Overview and purpose

Turn your family holiday into a story worth telling.

What if your next trip didn’t just entertain your kids — but inspired them? What if you could explore the greatest city of history not as tourists, but as curious explorers, learning through play, stories, and hands-on creativity?

Discovery is a 5-day learning adventure created for Gulf families. It turns the streets of Rome into a living classroom — where every monument becomes a lesson, and every family works as a team to learn something new. You’ll sketch, build, create maps, listen to stories, and reflect on what each place means — together.

Each day includes a fun, clear morning learning activity, followed by a cultural visit that brings that topic to life. The pace is relaxed and joyful, and the experience is delivered in English with full Arabic-speaking support.

Because the best kind of travel makes you think, feel, and grow, as a family.

Day 2 – Life in Ancient Rome

Morning: Together, we learn how people lived 2,000 years ago — what they ate, how they dressed, and where they met. Families create their own illustrated “Daily Life in Rome” chart.
Afternoon: Visit to the Roman Forum. Children look for real-life places they saw in their drawings and discuss what’s different today.
What we learn: Daily life in ancient times, how to compare past and present

Day 3 – Hidden Stories & Layers of History

Morning: We explore how cities are built layer by layer. Children build a cardboard “Time Tower” that shows how one place can belong to many centuries.

What we learn: How history is discovered, and how places hold many stories

Day 4 – Art Tells a Story

Morning: We explore how artists tell stories without using words. Children and parents sketch statues and create “Emotion Cards” to show how art makes them feel.

What we learn: How to read and create visual stories through art

Day 5 – Our Family’s Discovery Map
