Explore the Colosseum like an insider on this exclusive Underground Tour. You'll enjoy an in-depth experience with a licensed guide. Step into the hypogeum, the Colosseum's underground, where gladiators and animals awaited their fate. Tour the tunnels, hear stories of the preparations, and feel the unique atmosphere of this hidden world. We'll also take you onto the Arena stage itself, a rare privilege. Stand where gladiators clashed and imagine the roar of the crowd. The tour then proceeds to the first and second levels, revealing further secrets of the Colosseum's past.

Your tour includes tickets for the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, which you can explore at your own pace afterward. Wander through ancient ruins in the Forum and enjoy breathtaking panoramic views from Palatine Hill. Headsets are provided so you don't miss a word.

    We ended up doing a private tour with Giovanni, and I can't recommend it enough!! Easy to understand, very personable, funny and had tons of information. He offered to take family photos for us as well. Tour was right on time and lasted roughly 2hr30mins.

    Booking was simple. The communication was the best I’ve ever had from a tour group. There was a last minute scheduling change and we were informed every step of the way. Giovanni was an incredible and knowledgeable guide and funny too! This was my boyfriend’s favorite part of our entire trip throughout Italy. Take the tour and request Giovanni!
