Overview

Highlights Include:

Colosseum
Arch of Constantine
Palatine Hill
Roman Forum

A driver will pick you up from your hotel at a time of your choosing and take you to meet your official local guide. There is no fixed order for this tour, as your guide will decide on the best order for the day and time.

During the tour, you will go inside the Colosseum and learn all about why it was built, how it got its name, and the part it played in the life of the city. Your guide will talk to you about the gladiators who came here from across the empire, showing you where they trained and the different types of battles that were fought here. You'll be surprised how many new things you'll learn and how some of the things you thought you knew about the Romans simply weren't true!

The walk through the Forum is a wonderful experience, no matter what age you are. You'll find yourself jumping through history, starting at the 4th-century Arch of Constantine, then traveling backward as you move to the lower ground and the temples of the Roman Republic. You'll learn all about these magnificent structures, as well as the daily lives of the citizens who came here to vote, shop, attend trials, hear great speeches, celebrate victories, and honor the gods.

The final stop of the tour will be the Palatine Hill and the remains of the emperors' palaces and bath complexes. The first emperor, Augustus, decided to live here on the spot where Romulus and Remus were supposedly raised by a wolf. From that time, all emperors built their palaces here, where they could look down on the people in the Forum, look across to the Temple of Jupiter on the nearby Capitoline Hill, and enjoy the chariot races in the Circus Maximus.

The tour can be extended into a full day, to include sites such as the Baths of Caracalla, Circus Maximus, or the Appian Way.
