Itinerary

Begin your journey in the Roman Forum, once the political, religious, and commercial center of the Roman Empire. With your expert guide, explore the majestic ruins of temples, basilicas, and triumphal arches. Admire key monuments like the Arch of Titus, the Temple of Saturn, and the temples of Vespasian and Antoninus Pius. As you climb the Palatine Hill, you'll be treated to breathtaking views over the Forum and the Circus Maximus, while discovering stories of emperors, senators, and daily Roman life. Finally, step into the world’s most famous ancient arena—the mighty Colosseum. Enter directly through the Gladiator’s Gate and walk onto the Arena Floor, where deadly battles once took place. Standing where gladiators fought for glory, you’ll feel the thrill of being in the center of the action, surrounded by the towering stone walls and the gaze of 50,000 spectators. Your guide will share the gripping tales of combat, courage, and spectacle that made the Colosseum the beating heart of Roman entertainment. Whether it’s your first time in Rome or a long-awaited return, this tour lets you live the Colosseum as few ever do—through the eyes of the gladiators themselves.
Please note that the tour itinerary is subject to change based on the day's schedule—you may visit the Colosseum before the Roman Forum, or the other way around.
