Highlights
This incredible tour goes to the very heart of ancient Rome and takes in the Empire’s most iconic monuments. Our experienced guide will take you back to the time of gladiator fights at the Colosseum and reveal the secrets of the Roman Forum, which was the political and economic centre of the city and, therefore, of the entire empire. No tour of this area would be complete without exploring the Palatine Hill – the Beverly Hills of ancient Rome, where emperors and nobles resided, high above the riff-raff below.

About Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.
Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
