Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Colosseum, Piazza del Colosseo, 00184 Rome Italy
This private tour is ideal for those who want to discover Rome’s historical monuments! The tour will take you to the Colosseum and Roman Forum.
After the complimentary pick-up from your accommodation, you will visit the world’s largest amphitheatre with your “skip the line” ticket, which will allow you to access directly the metal detector control. Once inside, your tour guide will bring the Colosseum back to life by explaining how the gladiators entertained the crowds with spectacular fights. You will learn the complex engineering applied by the Romans to build, what is still considered, as the most technologically advanced entertainment complex of its time. The guide will then take you to the second level of the Colosseum where you will enjoy the beautiful view of the arena and all of the seating areas. This includes the exact spot where the emperor enjoyed the shows with his family and the specially reserved marble seats for the Roman senators.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Roman Forum, Piazza Santa Maria Nova, 53, 00186 Rome Italy
After the Colosseum, walking by the beautifully preserved arch of emperor Constantine, you will proceed into the archaeological site of the Roman Forum, which represented the commercial, legal and administrative center of ancient Rome. You will literally feel as if you were brought back in time during the Imperial age of Rome. All of this, while walking past ancient ruins such as Julius Caesar’s original mausoleum where his body was cremated, the imposing temple of Antonino and Faustina and the fascinating structure of the ancient Roman senate.

We had an amazing tour with Valentina. She was incredibly knowledgeable and responsive to our interests it I the only way to see the major sites and not spend most of the day in lines
This was absolutely one of the best tours I've ever taken. Part of it was due to the location of the tour the amazing Colosseum and Forum, but the majority of what made this tour so incredible was our guide. She had done this tour countless hundreds of times, but was still very visibly excited about the topic. She gave such a vivid depiction of the past that we had no problem imagining what it must have been like to live in Rome at that time period. The only problem: After spending three hours with this guide, I never got her name! So...if anyone from Viator is reading this, please note that the guide from our specific tour was nothing short of fantastic!!!
