Arena Floor Access Experience for Colosseum & Roman Forum

Your journey begins with a gladiator’s-eye view of the iconic Colosseum, where you will explore areas that are usually off-limits to the general public. Walking across the ancient arena floor, you will feel the atmosphere of a place where warriors and wild animals once fought for survival in front of the Roman crowd. The tour allows you to experience the underground chambers and passageways where gladiators and animals were held, giving a rare perspective on the hidden workings of this remarkable structure. Stepping into the sandals of a gladiator provides an immersive connection to the past that few visitors get to experience.

After exploring the arena and its underground areas, you will continue to the upper levels of the Colosseum via the regular visitor route. From here, panoramic views of the amphitheatre and the surrounding city offer a new appreciation for the scale and architectural genius of the ancient Romans. Your ticket includes priority entrance, so you can skip the long lines and enjoy more time soaking in the history and majesty of one of the world’s most famous landmarks.

The experience continues with entry to the Roman Forum, the bustling center of political, economic, and social life in ancient Rome. Wander among temples, marketplaces, and government buildings that tell the story of Rome’s rise to power. Finally, explore Palatine Hill, the legendary founding site of Rome, where emperors once lived in luxurious palaces. Walk in the footsteps of Julius Caesar and the Vestal Virgins, imagining life in one of history’s most influential civilizations while taking in breathtaking views across the city.
