Immerse yourself in Ancient Rome on a group tour of the Colosseum, Forum and Palatine Hill. Enjoy the company of an expert tour guide, who will bring these incredible sites to life and answer all of your questions.

Your tour begins at the Colosseum and walk straight into the global icon of Rome. With special access to the arena floor, stride out through the gladiator’s gate and stand where the gladiators fought for their lives. Look down into the arena dungeons and gaze skyward to see the immense Colosseum all around you. Continue on to the Roman Forum, the social, political, and religious hub of Ancient Rome. Feel transported back in time as you admire the towering ruins that have survived millennia, and listen as your guide enthralls you with stories of political treachery and drama.

  • Gotta go with a knowledgeable guide

    Ian, our guide, was great. He shared so much historical information in a way that was interesting and engaging. You could walk through the ruins but without someone to give you context and make it relatable you don’t get the full experience.

  • Not Worth It.

    First of all, viator canceled our original time of 1300 to 1430. This messed up our tour at the Vatican. I lost money and viator didn't offer any kind of discount. The tour took too long. We just want to see the important parts. Would not recommend.

    The tour guide gave tons of facts and had great images. However, It was difficult to understand him. In addition, the audio didn’t work when we got a little behind. I wouldn’t recommend because I only caught about a quarter of what was described. I was also having a hard time finding the start location and I made several attempts to speak to someone and no one ever responded.

    What we did see was great, but the tour guide was not the best he spent too much time talking and not enough time moving through the area. We were on a crusie and needed to get back to the ship by 5pm. We had plenty of time to do the whole tour but it was dragged out by the tour guide and went over the time speicified. The tour guide drew the whole process out and we had to leave before doing the last the last part of the tour. So over all we were not impressed with the guide.
