On this tour, you’ll do more than just visit the Colosseum; you’ll visit the past as your tour guide paints a vivid picture of what it would have been like two thousand years ago to stand in the amphitheater and watch gladiator games or many of the other spectacles that took place there. 

Learn about the life of a gladiator and the role the Colosseum played in the lives of ancient Romans. Our expert tour guides’ passion for the Colosseum and vast knowledge mean that our guests can expect to learn much more than they would from guides or if they had simply purchased Colosseum tickets and explored on their own. After your skip-the-line tour of the Colosseum, your guide will take you around Palatine Hill, which was the seat of high society and government in ancient Rome. Follow in the footsteps of ancient Romans along the Via Sacra in the Roman Forum, which was the center of politics and culture at the time.
