Tour Details

At the designated time, we'll meet at the front of the Basilica of Santi Cosma e Damiano. Once we're all gathered, we'll start this private tour of some of the most important sites in world history.

First, we'll start by visiting the Colosseum. Did you know that it's the biggest standing amphitheater in the world? We'll enter through the Gladiators' Gate and walk right onto the Arena floor! This exclusive access will make you feel like you're stepping back in time. We'll dive into the history of this legendary arena where gladiators once battled, and learn all about its construction under the Flavian emperors.

Next, we'll discover what daily life was like in the great public space of the Roman Forum, the heart of ancient Rome's political and social life.

Finally, we'll visit the archaeological remains of Palatine Hill. According to studies, this location has been inhabited since 1000 BC. This hill is where the city of Rome was supposedly founded! We'll learn all about Rome's fascinating history and the legends that shaped it.

Finally, after 3 hours, we'll conclude our private tour.
