Description

This incredible tour goes to the very heart of ancient Rome and allows you to explore the Empire’s most iconic monuments.

With your group, an experienced tour guide will take you back to the time of gladiator fights at the Colosseum. Your guide will also reveal the secrets of the Roman Forum, which was the political and economic center of the city and, therefore, of the entire empire.

No tour of this area would be complete without exploring the Palatine Hill. This was the Beverly Hills of ancient Rome, where emperors and nobles resided, high above the riff-raff below. The tour duration is 2 and a half hours in total.

Option with the entry to the Colosseum will allow you to avoid the long ticket line and learn all about the games that took place in the world’s most famous amphitheater, as well as the architectural prowess required to build this incredible structure almost 2,000 years ago.

The option with no entry to the Colosseum will not visit the Colosseum’s interior and does not include an entry ticket.

Good to know before you go
  • All guests must go through mandatory airport-style security checks before entering the Colosseum
  • Bring an internationally accepted photo ID (or a copy) with you
