On a guided walking tour, you will be impressed to see parts of the Colosseum that are usually restricted. Also, you will enjoy viewing the arena and walking around the underground tunnels because you will have fast-track entry and special access to these places. Continue your adventure with a stroll through Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum.

On the arena, you can walk in the footsteps of ancient gladiators and present a picture of the past with brutal gladiatorial fights and a roaring crowd. Under the Colosseum, you will find the tunnels that led to the Ludus Magnus, where the gladiators would train.

Observe the elevators that were intended to release predators onto the arena floor and see their chambers. A walk through the Roman Forum and a visit to the antique ruins of the emperors' palaces on the Palatine Hill are also included in your tour. Find out all about these amazing places and plunge into the atmosphere of ancient Rome.

While we didn’t get to see the lower portion of the Colosseum, they did issue a partial refund. Sometimes it gets overbooked and that was why we were bumped. The reminder of the tour was fantastic. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Would absolutely recommend the tour.

Excellent educational tour. Tour guide appeared very passionate and knowledgeable. Colosseum was awesome. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to do the underground tour but staff were very apologetic and gave good explanation. Palantine Hill also a must do - amazing views.

Guide was knowledgeable. Tour was well organised. Overall great experience as one gets to see a lot more than a 'normal' entry ticket. Just take note that there are strict time limits that the guide needs to adhere to and therefore time at each viewing point is limited.

Overall we were pleased with the quality and knowledge of our guides. The places we visited were outstanding and we asked lots of questions! Luca in paticular managed a difficuly portion of the tour in pouring rain. He was awesome. Aside from the rain, my feedback is more about a few confusing aspects. Our itinerary was in reverse order than advertized and we bagan our tour outside covering Palatine Hill and the Forum and then on to the Colosseum where another guide took us to the underground...

Such an in depth tour! Our guide, Lorenzo, was amazing. His knowledge of the Colosseum and surrounding areas was fantastic. We learned so much today, so much history. Highly recommend! Be prepared to walk a lot, wear comfortable shoes, the old Roman roads aren’t very forgiving. The provided earpiece was very helpful in hearing Lorenzo’s explanations of the different sites.

This was the best tour we have had in Rome. We were unavoidably late to the meeeting point due to the Colusium changing the time. Nick was very good at getting us in to meet up with the rest of the group. He really went above and beyond to make sure we still made it. Lorenzo was a very knowledgeable guide. We had a very indepth experience. I will use them again for future tours.

Amazing tour!! Our tour guide, Magda was excellent!! She was very knowledgeable and the way she explained everything truly brought us back to the Roman times. There’s so much history it can be overwhelming, but Magda knew how to hit all the major points and gave us a in-depth explanation which made learning about the Colosseum very fascinating. We were a group of 10 and it was the perfect size for this tour.

Touring the Colosseum was very interesting and brought to life by the tour guide who gave us a very in-depth history. We wore an ear piece which was much better audibly than trying to hear normally and were able to discover the ruins around the Colisseum as well as itself. Venturing inside was fascinating to imagine life in Roman Times and although disappointed that at the last minute we couldn’t tour underground with our tickets,we were shown visible areas that brought to life what happened ...
