Few visitors have ventured beneath the Colosseum’s arena floor, far from the bustling crowds and deep into the heart of gladiatorial history. With exclusive access to the Colosseum’s underground, your expert guide will usher you through hidden tunnels and passageways, animal cages, and artifacts of mechanical engineering that defined Roman spectacle.
You’ll not only gain access to the Colosseums’ underground, arena floor, and ground level but also the mezzanine section, which boasts panoramic views of the Colosseum’s interior—a perfect place for an unforgettable photo opportunity.
Beyond the Colosseum, your guide will lead you through the Roman Forum, once the political, commercial, and spiritual core of our ancient city. From the Senate House to the Temple of Julius Caesar, from the House of the Vestal Virgins to the Arch of Titus, every step on this journey will bring you closer to Rome beyond the ruins.
Ascend Palatine Hill where Rome’s emperors once lived. Take a stroll in the shade of the Farnese Gardens’ majestic umbrella pines, and wander amongst the imposing ruins of imperial palaces—the views from Palatine Hill are as glittering as Rome itself.
