Step by Step

With this express experience, you will live an unforgettable immersion in the history of Ancient Rome. You will start your visit with a professional guide who will meet you in front of the Colosseum and take you directly inside the amphitheatre. Over the course of an hour, you will walk through the stands and corridors where the hustle and bustle of the crowd and the gladiatorial combats forged legends.

Your guide, an expert in archaeology or history, will reveal the secrets of the Colosseum's construction, the innovative engineering techniques that made it possible and its role as a symbol of political and social power in the Roman Empire. You will also hear the most shocking stories of the games and executions that thrilled the ancient spectators.

After this intense and revealing introduction, you will receive your tickets for the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill, which you can visit on your own on the same day. Walk among ancient ruins and temples, relive the activity of the Forum and gaze down on Rome from the legendary hill where the city was founded.

You don't need to be a history expert to enjoy this experience, but you'll certainly come away with a new insight into the grandeur and rawness of Ancient Rome.
