What To Expect
Itinerary
The Colosseum has been a symbol of Rome since 80 AD, and today it is a superior monument in Italy. Some 50,000 spectators once gathered in the staggered seats of the amphitheater to see gladiatorial games, and although parts of its original marble facade were stolen over the years to build the Basilica of St. Peter, the Colosseum remains remarkably intact 2,000 years later.
Duration: 1 hour
Admission Ticket Included
A sprawling mass of ruins, the Roman Forum (Fori Imperiali) was once the center of ancient Rome, with temples, courts, markets, and government buildings in full swing until the 4th century AD. While all that remains today is an array of ancient columns and arches, the forum is one of the most important archaeological sites in Italy, and excavations occur to this day. Aside from a lesson in Roman history, visitors can get a great view of the Eternal City from the overlooking Palatine and Capitoline hills.

Than you will get to the Palatin Hill, the most famous of the seven hills of Rome. On the Palatine Hill, places considered by the Romans sacred, our guide will explain you the legends of mythical events, as an example the cave where the wolf nursed the twins Romulus and Remus.
