Colosseum And Ancient Rome Guided Tour
Overview
Meet your guide and enjoy pre-reserved entry to the Colosseum, the Roman icon built in 72 AD that was once able to seat more than 50,000 spectators. Once inside, gaze down at the arena floor while your guide paints an accurate picture of the gladiator games that took place in the Roman empire’s greatest venue, helping you to decipher between fact, fiction, and the images portrayed by big-screen Hollywood blockbusters. Outside the arena, travel even further back in time as you enter the Roman Forum, the true heart of ancient Rome, with monuments dating as far back as the 7th century BC. Learn of the legendary founding of Rome on the Palatine Hill and how a she-wolf rescued and nursed the young twins Romulus (legendary first king of Rome) and Remus after they washed up on the banks of the Tiber River. Hear how these famous twins paved the way for tyrants, emperors, and caesars who declared themselves gods throughout the rise and fall of the Roman empire.
