Description

Dive into ancient history with an expert guide on an unmatchable tour of the Colosseum's restricted areas. Relive the glory days of one of the most important monumental complexes in history. Enjoy access to the Arena and the Roman Forum.

This tour that will accompany you to the most iconic sights of Rome, will directly lead you to the spectacular arena floor, the sand floor on which gladiators fought for life and glory. Secondly, you will start exploring the Roman Forum, where you can immerse yourself in the history and stories of life in Ancient Rome, also known as the Eternal City.

Please note, the tour may start with the Roman Forum. This exclusive tour is limited to a maximum of 12 participants, ensuring a more personal and immersive experience.

Meet your licensed, English-speaking guide at the Arch of Constantine, before entering the Flavian Amphitheatre, better known as the Colosseum. This incredible monument can boast with several records: it is the biggest, best-preserved Roman amphitheatre in the world and its tiers could host up to 75 thousand people. It is also declared as UNESCO World Heritage, along with the ancient centre of Rome and officially in the list of the New Seven Wonders of the World.

This tour will bring you to the first and second tier of the Colosseum, but you will also have the chance to enter and walk on the floor of the arena, a privilege most visitors don’t get to have. Here, gladiators fought bloody battles to entertain the cheering crowds during incredible shows offered by the emperors to their people.

Be ready to become a Roman Spectator by listening to the vivid description of your guide, who will explain in detail how these shows were prepared and why they were so important for the Romans, while revealing the true stories and secrets about some of the famous characters of Roman history.

Once outside the Colosseum, admire the triumphant Arch of Constantine, dating back to the 4th century and symbolizes the moment in which the namesake emperor made Christianity the religion of the Empire.

Then head to the beating heart of the city, the Roman Forum, the oldest part of the eternal city.Learn about politics, religion and the everyday life of a Roman citizen, while hearing the story of the she-wolf that nursed Romulus and Remus, founders of the city.

Join us for a journey back in time, to the glorious days of what was once a great empire and experience the glory of living like a true Roman.
