Departure Point

L.go Gaetana Agnesi, 00184 Roma RM, Italy Meet your guide at Largo Gaetana Agnesi, on the little square above the metro line B (blue line) stop "Colosseo". Your guide coordinator will be waiting here wearing a blue City Wonders polo shirt or jacket for easy recognition.

  • Colosseum, Rome, Italy
    Begin your tour of Rome’s most iconic monument with Skip-the-Line access directly through the Gladiator’s Gate. Once the main exit for defeated contenders, this special entrance leads you directly to the parts of the Colosseum most tourists don’t get to see. Your first stop is the Colosseum Underground – the backstage area where gladiators prepared for battle. Here, your expert, English-speaking guide will call on their historical and archaeological expertise to let you imagine the space as it once was. Scenery and caged wild animals stood ready to be hoisted into the arena by ingenious pulleys. You’ll practically feel the gladiators’ tense anticipation and hear the roar of the blood-thirsty crowd. Then, walk in the gladiators’ footsteps on a partially reconstructed arena stage – a unique and amazing photo opportunity. And unlike the gladiators, you’ll get to ascend from the Arena Floor to the Colosseum’s second tier, where fans cheered the violent spectacles below.

  • Palatine Hill, Rome, Italy
    The next stop on the tour takes you back to the very beginning. The Palatine Hill is the spot Romulus chose to found the city that would become Rome in 753 BC – a decision that ended in tragedy for his brother Remus. Here, steeped in history, you’ll enjoy a spectacular preview of your next destination: the Roman Forum.
    30 minutes
  • Roman Forum, Rome, Italy
    The Roman Forum and the Via Sacra, the Sacred Way, were the heart of Ancient Rome. All of Roman life could be found in this bustling marketplace: commerce and trade, political rallies, military parades, and the sacred ceremonies of the Vestal Virgins.

    Colosseum and Forum tour with Inga was awesome. Her knowledge of Rome and everything Al out the tour was amazing. She involved the entire tour group which made it most enjoyable. Loads of laughs. Best part we felt was the time spent in the colosseum. So many facts plus loads of pictures. She did a fantastic tour. Definitely book her again.

    Enjoyed the tour very much, very informative and saw alot of great sights. Wish we could of spared 5min to visit the gift store at the Colosseum. Some of our group showed up late, which was annoying as the tickets say to arrive 15min early and they turnes up 15min after departure and were allowed to join in when they caught up. The tour guide was very good and engaging for all of the group

    Changement de guides, pas ou très bref visite du mont Palatin. La visite s'est terminé en subitement à l'entré du Mont Palatin, le guide semblait en retard pour un autre rendez-vous. Excellente présentation dans le colisée
