We loved especially the Carpe Diem tour guide, Paolo. He was fantastic! Educated as anthropologist, he really brought the whole experience alive through lots of interactive activities. Our son and the other children in the group found him very entertaining!

Ticketing was no problem at all. There was a girl at the gate who ticked us off. The instructions should have said to meet at the park gate. Our guide Siri was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and thoughtful She was also very friendly and had a sense of humour. The best we could have had

Fascinating guide who had to deal with 2 groups and a late start. As a result, the tour was incomplete.

If you only have a short period of time to see the absolute best that Rome has to offer, this tour is the perfect way to maximize your time and experience the archaeological wonders of the city in the company of an expert local guide!

An unmatched introduction to the Eternal City

After meeting your guide, you will be led to the dominating Colosseum. Make your way directly into the world’s largest amphitheater ever constructed. Your tour guide will regale you with stories of the infamous gladiator games. Believed to have been constructed as a gift from ancient emperors to the Roman people, this grand outdoor amphitheater once served as the epicenter for entertainment, hosting various public spectacles.

Dive into Rome’s history at the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill

In the next leg of this exciting tour, walk the path that citizens once used every day as you venture into the Roman Forum along the Via Sacra. Neighboring the Colosseum, this rectangular marketplace provides an insight into ancient life in Rome unlike any other site.

Finally, make your way to Palatine Hill to enjoy one of the city’s best vantage points and discover the hill where the city was originally founded. Explore the ruins of the Flavian Palace and Stadium of Domitian, as well as the legendary Hut of Romulus.

What to bring

  • It’s recommended to wear comfortable walking shoes as this tour involves a fair amount of walking.

Additional information

  • The tour covers all 3 sites. However, the order of sites visited may be subject to change.

  • As there is no timed entrance to the Palatine and Forum, it is not possible to skip the lines. Please expect a delay when entering these sites.

You will receive an email confirmation with your Colosseum & Ancient Rome Tour with Forum & Palatine Hill vouchers shortly. Please display your vouchers on your mobile phone with valid photo ID at the meeting point.
