Detailed Itinerary
Your journey through time will bring you to ruins of the Roman Empire, allowing you to discover the largest open-air museum in the world. On this semi-private tour, your experienced guide will make sure the tour moves at a comfortable pace, visiting sights that peak your interest.
After meeting your expert guide for the day, you will be led past the long lines at the archeological sites, saving you more time to explore! The tour will start in one of the most evocative places in Rome – on the top of Oppian Hill, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine, two of the world’s most significant examples of Roman architecture.
Once you enter the Colosseum, your expert guide will vividly bring to life the events and emotion of “the greatest show of all time.” Imagine the roars of the lions and the ovations of the crowd, as if you were the heroic gladiators who once fought for eternal glory (and for their life) in the arena. Your guide will lead you throughout the Colosseum, answering any questions you may have.
The next stage of the tour will lead you to the majestic Arch of Constantine, where your guide will share local legends of the triumphal marches of armies that nourished the ego of the Emperors centuries ago.
Then, continue along the Sacred Way, admiring the ruins of temples in the heart of the Imperial Forum. As you follow your guide, discover the secrets of ancient Rome, which have made it into the greatest Empire of all time.
