About this activity

Treat yourself with a comprehensive guided tour of one of the most important Roman highlights. Meet your guide at our legal office near the Colosseum to begin this fascinating tour through ancient Roman history.

With your professional guide, walk through the Roman Forum, the economic, political, and social center of the ancient Roman empire. See the excavations of important buildings on this archaeological site. Explore the ruins of palaces built for emperors and other Roman nobility on Palatine Hill, with its wonderful views over the Forum.

Bypass the line to visit the iconic Colosseum. Learn about its amazing structural design as well as the gory gladiator battles that once took place in the amphitheater.

The Small Group option allows you to visit the Colosseum as part of a small group, with 13 people maximum. This experience guarantees you learn as much about the subject as you only can.

The VIP Group option includes a visit of an off-limits area: the Arena Floor of the Colosseum. This visit also features the totally no-line entrance through a side door. There are 20 people on average in the group, and headsets are used so you can hear the guide.

Very enjoyable tour. Our tour guide Jason was great. The tour covered a good selection of important sites and enough history and context to make the material really interesting. I would recommend this tour.

An enjoyable tour of an ever-crowded but always impressive monument. Our guide was fun while a bit quirky, but there were only five of us, so it was quite intimate and personalized. The meeting point was easy to find, and the staff was very accommodating calling ahead of time to make sure we could find them, etc..

What an incredible trip!!! And what a fantastic tour of the Colosseum and Ancient Rome with our Guide, Brian. Very knowledgeable and so personable. Very conscientious about the heat as well, guiding us to shady spots for his history lessons. What a humbling experience to learn about the people who came before us - how they lived, worked, and engaged in life. WOW!
