Your experience at Ancient Rome’s icons

Step directly into Rome’s epic history

Start your discovery with hosted entry to the legendary Colosseum. Walk past the limitations of the usual ticket line and step under the colossal arches, where each stone echoes stories of gladiators, ancient citizens and Roman spectacles. Accompanied by your host, you’ll quickly access the amphitheater and embark on a journey through the ground and upper levels, understanding the divides of social classes that shaped Rome’s events. The museum inside the Colosseum offers a closer look at artifacts and the epic scale of the games staged here.

Forum and Palatine: Exploring Rome’s foundations

Move on to the Roman Forum, the vibrant heart of ancient public life. Stroll at your own pace among remnants of temples, former courts and public squares, as your audio guide or provided guidebook reveals details of Roman rituals, commerce and legendary speeches delivered here. Continue your adventure by climbing Palatine Hill. Tradition places the birthplace of Rome on this very hill, and at its peak, you’ll admire panoramic views of both the modern city and the archaeological remains below.
