Walk in the footsteps of Roman emperors and citizens on a 2.5-hour guided tour of Ancient Rome. Begin at the Roman Forum, once the heart of political, religious, and social life in ancient times. Stroll along the Via Sacra, once alive with festivals and processions, to the Temple of Julius Caesar, where visitors still leave flowers at his cremation site.
Before reaching the Colosseum, enjoy a panoramic view of the Palatine Hill, the legendary birthplace of Rome and home to ancient imperial palaces. From here, you’ll overlook both the Forum and the Circus Maximus, once the grand arena for chariot races.
Finally, step inside the Colosseum, the iconic amphitheatre that hosted gladiatorial battles, dramatic re-enactments, and even mock sea battles. Your expert guide will bring its fascinating and often brutal history to life with vivid stories and insights.
This small-group tour is limited to 18 participants, ensuring a personal and engaging experience.
