Itinerary
Enjoy a private tour with your personal storyteller by entering the Colosseum, a true blessing especially during hot and crowded summer days! Your private guide will help your imagination with visual aids and reconstructions of ancient buildings and you will experience how Roman history comes to life thanks to an expert storyteller. Retrace the same sites you got to know in your favorite Ancient Rome movies like “the Gladiator”, “Spartacus”, “Ben-Hur”. The Colosseum or Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome. Built of travertine limestone, tuff, and brick-faced concrete, it was the largest amphitheatre ever built at the time and held aprox 50,000 spectators.
The Arch of Constantine is the largest triumphal arch within the Entire Eternal city and was once the closing monument during Ancient Glory marches lead by numerous emperors from AD 315 and the victorious Roman military. Although the arch is named after the great Constantine, it is decorated with many statues "stolen" from much earlier monuments of its kind that were dedicated to the likes of Marcus Aurelius, Hadrian and even Emperor Trajan, as early as AD 98.

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.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
