Foro Romano

Just west of the Colosseum is the Roman Forum, which for many centuries was the place where the future of the ancient western civilization was decided. We will also provide you with access to the Roman Forum and you will still be under the careful attention of our expert guide. Although today the Roman Forum stands in ruins, for many reigns it was at the very center of Rome’s activities. It started as a marketplace for daily shopping, but as the power of the Empire grew, it became much more important. In this part of the tour, you will explore the remnants of ancient grandiose temples, bustling marketplaces, and imposing civic buildings. We will also show you the place where Rome first began—on Palatine Hill. Rome’s ancient existence has earned it the name “the Eternal City,” and its time as the ruling city of the lands bordering the Mediterranean Sea has earned it the designation “Capital of the World.”

    An experience like no other. The whole colosseum is really fascinating. I would definitely recommend including the underground with the tour. Our tour guide, Carmelo Carrubba was knowledgeable, easy to understand and helpful in recommending restaurants. A must

    My mom and I had a great time on this small group tour. Our guide, Nicola, was very entertaining and gave us a lot of really interesting information about the history of the Roman forum in the Colosseum as well as its excavation and restoration over the years. Both locations were packed, but the guide was able to get us to the best views, less traffic areas, and the highlights without any trouble at all.

    Our guide was terrific but unfortunately I was not quick enough to get his name. The information he shared about the Colosseum and the underground systems they used to separate the Gladiators and all the different animals used for the entertainment of the Roman citizens was amazing. It was a surreal experience getting to touch the walls and sit on the old columns of the Colosseum. Our guide did a great job moving us through the crowds and yet giving us time to take it all in. We loved the knowledge he shared and the enthusiasm he had for the work he does. We would definitely book again through this website.
