One of the main things we wanted to see was the Colosseum and other major Roman ruins; the Forum, the Pantheon and an aqueduct. We decided to go all out and have a guide take us around. She was good and very interesting, but struggled a little in hitting the boy's comprehension. She seemed to vacillate between teen and toddler. Still, we all learned a lot and I continue to be impressed with the seemingly random facts that the boys spout daily.
