You’ll receive expert attention from your guide as you explore the legendary Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum. This engaging setting allows for plenty of questions, deeper insights, and a genuine connection with both your guide and the history of Rome. Learn why the Colosseum is pockmarked with holes, why one side is shorter than the other, and what history really says about the gladiators and emperors who stood on the arena floor. Afterward, climb the Palatine Hill to hear the myth of Romulus and Remus and walk through the ruins of ancient palaces once home to emperors like Augustus. Then step into the Roman Forum, where you’ll uncover what daily life looked like in the heart of the Empire, standing where figures like Caesar and Cicero once walked.
