VIP Morning Colosseum & Ancient Rome

Experience Rome’s most iconic ancient sites on an immersive journey beginning at the meeting point, where your tour manager and expert guide will welcome you into your small group. Your adventure starts at the legendary Colosseum, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. As you step inside this monumental amphitheatre, your guide will transport you back to the age of gladiators—revealing the fierce battles, the deadly weapons, and the engineering brilliance that made this arena a marvel of the ancient world. Walking through its vast corridors and viewing platforms, you’ll uncover stories of emperors, exotic beasts, and the roaring crowds who once filled the stands.

Your tour continues with a short stroll to the Roman Forum, the beating heart of ancient Rome. Here you’ll explore breathtaking ruins of temples, courts, and political halls, including the site where Julius Caesar was laid to rest. The journey then leads up the gentle slopes of the Palatine Hill, once home to Rome’s wealthiest citizens and powerful emperors. Amid pine-dotted landscapes and sweeping views, explore imperial palaces, grand dining rooms, and serene gardens that reflect the opulence of Rome’s elite. Conclude the experience at Domitian’s hippodrome, where you can soak in panoramic vistas and feel the weight of history layered across centuries. Your guide will remain available afterward to answer questions and share local tips—including where to find the best pasta in the city.
