What to expect

Embark on an unforgettable journey through Ancient Rome with this comprehensive guided tour, taking you through three of the city’s most iconic landmarks: the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum.

Meet your guide at the Colosseo metro stop, specifically at the Via dei Fori Imperiali exit, where your tour will begin. Skip the lines and dive straight into the heart of Roman civilization, starting at the Colosseum—also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre—the largest amphitheatre ever built during the Roman Empire. Inside, you'll explore the massive stands, imagining the excitement of up to 50,000 spectators watching gladiator fights, animal hunts, naumachias, public executions, and grand re-enactments of famous battles. Recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World, this monument is a true marvel of Roman engineering.

After discovering the grandeur of the Colosseum, the tour will continue to Palatine Hill, the most central of Rome's seven hills and the ancient home of emperors and noble families. This historic site, believed to have been inhabited since 1000 B.C., offers breathtaking panoramic views, including an incredible vantage point of the Circus Maximus, the largest stadium in ancient times, used for public games and chariot races.

Finally, the tour will conclude with a visit to the Roman Forum, the bustling center of Ancient Rome's political, social, and religious life. As you walk along the Via Sacra, you will pass by the remains of monumental temples such as the Temple of Venus, the Temple of Saturn, the Arch of Titus, and the House of the Vestals. This 2.5 to 3-hour tour will transport you back in time to the height of the Roman Empire, ending at the Via dei Fori Imperiali, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Rome's glorious past.

Beautiful

Exploring the Colosseum with my partner was magical! The guide was knowledgeable and kept the group engaged throughout. The small group size made it intimate and allowed us to ask plenty of questions. We left feeling connected to Rome’s rich history.
