Description

Enjoy a hassle-free evening tour of the Colosseum and ancient Rome, and experience Rome in a more atmospheric setting as daylight fades. Begin with a scenic walk past the Roman Forum from the outside, where your guide will point out iconic landmarks and share stories of Ancient Rome, including its temples, arches, and the legendary Vestal Virgins. Continue along Via dei Fori Imperiali, taking in memorable views before reaching the highlight of the tour: the Colosseum. Step inside this world-famous monument as your guide brings its history to life, from epic gladiator battles to the emperors and spectators who once filled its stands. Explore different levels and admire details such as centuries-old graffiti etched into the walls. If you’ve selected the upgraded option, you’ll also enjoy Arena Floor access for an even more immersive experience. After the visit, take time to enjoy the evening in Rome—head to the nearby Monti neighborhood for dinner or linger to photograph the Colosseum as the city lights begin to glow.
