Cần Quan Tâm
Colosseum
Meet your guide near the formidable hulk of the Colosseum, the gigantic arena that drew Romans of all walks of life to watch violent fights between gladiators and beasts. Bypass the crowds and head straight inside, entering the Colosseum through a special gate once used by gladiators themselves. Walk right onto the arena floor—an area not usually accessible to the public—and learn about the harrowing events that took place here for entertainment's sake centuries ago. If you want to enter through the legendary Gladiator's Gate and walk directly onto the arena floor, select the Gladiator's Gate Group Tour option at time of booking. Short on time? The Arena Express option offers a streamlined experience with a guided tour of the Colosseum arena floor and the Roman Forum. While the Colosseum Express option includes a guided tour of the Colosseum's first and second tiers (no arena floor) and the flexibility to explore the Forum on your own afterward.
If option with the guided Roman Forum selected: The adventure continues at the Roman Forum. You’ll appreciate having a historian as a guide here. As you wander the streets, they can make sense of the ruins for you, pointing out the subtle differences that reveal whether the structure is a moneylender’s shop, public bath, or any number of common ancient structures. Learn what life was like in the days of Caesar, Nero, and Hadrian, and how Roman society functioned.

1.00Viator failed to explain meetup instructions properly. Specifically this was my first tour using Viator, not knowing they outsource to other tour providers. They marked the meeting location, where we were in time looking for Viator tour group. We asked around, other people and tour guides in the area. We missed the tour and not provided a refund when showing how Viator did not provide clear instructions. Skip booking with Viator, use Walks and the Tour guy.
Colosseum Gladiator’s Gate with Arena Floor

2.00Very disappointed with this tour. The tour was to include special access to the arena floor and 1st and 2nd floors, Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum. We toured the 1st and 2nd floors but did not get on the arena floor. The tour of Augusta’s house on Palatine Hill was nice, but way too long. We didn’t tour any of the Roman Forum because the guide said the tour was over and it was almost closing time. We didn’t feel like we got the tour described in the Viator booking.
Amazing In Depth Tour!

5.00This tour was a great experience for our entire family. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and answered what felt like a million questions from our group including being patient with questions from the kids and teens in the group. She really gave us an idea of what the Colosseum would have felt like 2,000 years ago. The weather was unbearably hot but our guide made sure to help everyone stay in the shade as much as possible and take multiple water breaks. I know many people are concerned right now about which tour companies are allowed to actually visit the colosseum and it's hard to find a list. We tool this tour June 9th and Walks of Italy was definitely an approved professional vendor. Thanks for a great tour!
Good Tour thanks to guide
