Description

Walk in the footsteps of gladiators and witness the site of some of their most epic battles on this guided tour of the Colosseum in Rome. Choose to venture onto the arena floor which is reserved for just 10% of the total daily visitors.

Step onto the first level, where spectators in ancient times would have first encountered the grandeur of the arena. From here, catch glimpses of the impressive arena floor below. Moving up to the second level of the Colosseum, be treated to elevated views of the arena and the surrounding cityscape of Rome. Appreciate the scale of the amphitheater and imagine the excitement of the crowds that once filled the stands. Be transported back in time to the days of Julius Caesar and Nero as you visit some of the most renowned landmarks in the world, the Roman Forum, and the Palatine Hill. Discover the wonders of the Palatine Hill, the highest of the seven hills upon which Rome was built. This archeological area is rich in history, offering an awe-inspiring glimpse into the past. Explore the Roman Forum, which served as the center of public life, markets, and political and religious events.
