Ancient Rome by Night Tour: Capitol Forums and Colosseum Exterior
Enjoy a 2-hour walking tour of the heart of ancient Rome in a cooler and romantic nighttime atmosphere. You will see first the Trajan's Column, Piazza Venezia and the Vittoriano - often referred to as "The Wedding Cake" for its shape and colour - the monument erected in honour of the first king of unified Italy, Victor Emmanuel II. Then, your guide will take you to Roman Forum were the main political, judicial and commercial headquarters of the Empire were located. Here, you will learn about the “12 Caesars” and the “5 Good Emperors”, including stories of Domitian and the end of the Flavian Dynasty. You will also get to experience one of the most beautiful views in Rome, which is even more impressive under the moonlight. The tour will end in front of the Colosseum (entry is not provided) where you will learn about its architecture, history, gladiators lives and spectacles. You will love this evening walk.

Where this sits in Rome
Rome is about 33 min by road from Rome Fiumicino Airport. Three thousand years stacked on top of each other, still busy being a capital. Stay central and walk — the Forum, the Pantheon and a dozen churches worth the detour are closer together than the map suggests, and the city rewards wandering more than ticking off.
