Step by Step

This guided tour of the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill and the Colosseum is one of the best ways to discover the heart of Ancient Rome in a single experience. The tour is designed for those who wish to gain a better understanding of the city’s historical development, visiting three of its most important archaeological sites in an order that helps visitors follow the story of Rome more effectively.

The first part of the tour takes place in the Roman Forum, which for centuries was the centre of the city’s political, social and religious life. Walking through this area gives you a much clearer picture of what Rome was like in its heyday, amongst temples, basilicas and squares where much of the Empire’s fate was decided.

The tour then continues to the Palatine Hill, one of Rome’s most significant hills and a place closely linked to the city’s legendary origins. As well as its historical significance, this area offers a very special atmosphere and provides a privileged vantage point from which to admire the archaeological landscape.

The final major stop on the tour is the Colosseum, the most famous monument of ancient Rome. Here, you will not only discover the history of the amphitheatre, but you will also be able to access the arena – an area that allows you to imagine the spectacles and gladiatorial combats that took place on this monumental stage with far greater vividness.

All in all, this is a highly recommended tour for anyone wishing to explore Ancient Rome in a more in-depth and structured way. The combination of the Forum, the Palatine Hill and the Colosseum, with access to the arena, makes this tour a truly comprehensive experience for any trip to Rome.

    What can I say that hasn't already been said, I fell in love with the colosseum. These places fascinate me and being able to see them in person with a good guide is an incredible experience.
