Led by a licensed expert guide, this tour reveals the hidden layers of Rome’s most iconic monument. Descend into the Colosseum Underground, where gladiators and wild animals once awaited their fate. Walk through ancient tunnels, hear fascinating stories of the games’ preparations, and feel the intense atmosphere of this restricted area. Then step onto the Arena Floor, a rare privilege that lets you stand where gladiators once fought as the crowd roared above. Your tour also includes tickets for the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, which you can explore at your own pace after the guided visit. Wander through the ruins of the Forum and enjoy stunning panoramic views from Palatine Hill, the legendary birthplace of Rome.

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.
