Tour description

Experience the most exclusive private Colosseum tour available. Accompanied by an expert guide, explore the Arena, the mysterious Underground, and all the most iconic landmarks that stand as symbols of Ancient Rome's greatness: the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill.

Your included priority ticket means no waiting in line at Rome's most famous monument, the Colosseum. This privileged itinerary, designed to reveal the deepest and most fascinating secrets of Rome, begins with a visit to the Underground, where gladiators prepared for battle and wild beasts were held in cages. Like a true gladiator, you'll step up onto the Arena floor where the games took place. You'll admire the structure of the largest amphitheatre in the world from a privileged perspective, a venue that could hold over 50,000 spectators and have the chance to take unforgettable photos while listening to stories about the legendary games and ceremonies that once brought the Colosseum to life.

Our second stop is the Roman Forum, the political, social and religious heart of Ancient Rome. You'll stroll along its ancient streets and relive the days of Rome's glory, like a true journey back in time.

Finally, you'll visit the Palatine Hill and hear the legend of Rome's founding. It was on this hill that Rome was born, and it was here that the Emperors chose to build their imperial palaces.
