Itinerary
Piazza del Colosseo
Meet your archeologist guide outside the Colosseum and enjoy a short introduction of the area before skipping the line into the world's most visited attraction. Get ready to travel back in time to the days of the Roman Empire and to be amazed by the history of its most iconic monument.
Colosseum
Once inside, marvel at this mighty wonder of ancient engineering. Learn about the innovative techniques used to build it and discover the political and social reasons that led to its construction. Go up to the second tier to enjoy a stunning view of the Gladiator's Arena and hear about the bloody games that took place in it. After your official tour ends you can stay inside the Colosseum as long as you wish. Then you can either use your tickets to visit the archeological area of the Roman Forums and Palatine Hill on your own or with a guided tour (choose the option you prefer during your booking).
Admission Ticket IncludedRoman Forum
OPTIONALLY, you can have a short break inside the Colosseum to further explore on your own, then join the guide again to head towards the archeological area of the Roman Forums and Palatine Hill in another 1-hour guided tour. Choose this option during your booking. Here, you will immerse yourself in the ruins of ancient temples and will walk the paths of Emperors and Senators. Learn how this beautiful area became the beating heart of Ancient Rome. Hear about the Vestal Virgins and see their gardens and the pagan temple of the Goddess Vesta they served. Learn about the Basilica Julia and the penal system of Ancient Rome and its effects on Christianity. See the temple of Castor and Pollux and the Arch of Titus and learn about the sacking of Jerusalem. Discover the Senate House, where senators met to decide the fate of the Roman Republic and how that climaxed with the murder and cremation of Julius Caesar.
Admission Ticket IncludedPalatine Hill
Walk the paths of the Roman Emperors while visiting the hill where the legend of Romulus and Remus places the foundation of the city: the Palatine Hill. Learn how it later became one of the most exclusive areas of Ancient Rome and enjoy breathtaking views over the Colosseum and Roman Forum. From the heights of the Palatine Hill, enjoy a bird's eye view over what is considered to have been the largest structure for public games ever built by mankind, the Circus Maximus.
