Semi-Private Guided Tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum
Dive into the heart of ancient Rome with a guided tour that will take you back to relive the glorious days of the empire, allowing you to travel through time.
Meet your guide at the Touristation Aracoeli office, located at Piazza Ara Coeli 16. The office is equipped with all the services and facilities to welcome tourists: free Wi-Fi, restrooms, vending machines, and additional services dedicated to vulnerable individuals. You will be greeted by a dedicated and multilingual staff who will provide you with all the information to enjoy your stay in Rome.
Start your experience with a 30-minute multimedia 3D video created by a renowned company with credits from UNESCO, BBC and National Geographic. This video graphically illustrates what Rome was like thousands of years ago, during the Roman Empire, and will help you better understand the guided tour.
Your visit will begin at the Roman Forum, which has become the political, religious, economic, and legal center of the ancient city over the centuries. Admire and discover the Curia, the Arch of Septimius Severus, the Tabularium, the Temple of Saturn, and much more. Stroll with your professional guide among the impressive ruins and majestic buildings. Few places in the world are as fascinating and inspiring as the archaeological area of the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Listen to your guide as they explain the history of the monument through the centuries.
Next, walk along the ancient Via Sacra to reach the most famous monument in the world: the Colosseum. Don't miss the chance to admire the imposing Arch of Constantine while your guide shares its history and significant features. Constantine wanted to be celebrated and recognized as the new arbiter of Rome's destiny, choosing a traditional monument rooted in imperial history: the Triumphal Arch.
Following that, the Colosseum stands as a testament to the greatness of ancient Roman engineering. It is the largest amphitheater built by the Roman Empire. Your guide will tell you about spectacular gladiatorial combats, naval battles, wild animal hunts, and other events that could last up to 100 days! Through their stories, you will get a glimpse of the displays of power and entertainment of the Roman Empire.
