Your expert guide will share captivating stories about the Colosseum’s innovative engineering and its role in Roman society. With dedicated entrance tickets and sterilized earphones provided, you’ll enjoy a seamless, immersive experience as you explore this iconic monument.

Continue your journey through time with a guided visit to the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill.
