Our guide to Small Group Colosseum Guided Tour with Arena Floor and Roman Forum
Begin your journey in the Roman Forum, once the political, religious, and commercial center of the Roman Empire. Explore the majestic ruins of temples, basilicas, and triumphal arches with your expert guide. Admire key monuments like the Arch of Titus, the Temple of Saturn, and the temples of Vespasian and Antoninus Pius. As you climb the Palatine Hill, you'll be treated to breathtaking views over the Forum and the Circus Maximus, while discovering stories of emperors, senators, and daily Roman life.
After your Forum exploration, step inside the world’s most famous ancient arena—the Colosseum. Follow your guide through the entrances once used by gladiators and emperors. Learn about the architecture, the engineering marvels of the amphitheater, and the violent yet fascinating games that once thrilled the Roman crowds. Picture yourself as a spectator witnessing dramatic fights between gladiators, wild beasts, and condemned prisoners, and imagine the roar of the crowd with each thumb gesture determining life or death. Your guide will share thrilling tales and historical anecdotes that bring the Colosseum and the Forum to life, offering you a vivid and engaging experience of what it meant to live in Ancient Rome.
