What To Expect

Dive in ancient history with an expert, English-speaking guide who will help you relive the glorious days of one of the most important monumental complexes in history. Take the opportunity to enjoy exclusive access to one of the world’s greatest attractions that includes the Arena, the Roman Forum and the Platine Hill, all packed into one unique tour that will surely take you back in time to the great Roman days.The tour may start from the Arena or Palatine Hill, with the Roman Forum. You will thus be able to admire the sand floor on which gladiators fought for life and glory. This incredible monument can boast with several records: it is the biggest, best-preserved Roman amphitheatre in the world and its tiers could host up to 75 thousand people. It has also been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with the entire ancient centre of Rome, and it's officially in the list of the New Seven Wonders of the World.The tour will bring you to the first and second tier of the Colosseum, but you will also have the chance to enter and walk on the floor of the arena, a privilege most visitors don’t get to have (regular entrances are restricted to only walk on the edge of it).
