What to expect

The Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill in Rome have long been some of the most ancient parts of the city. Fascinating and enthralling visitors for nearly 2000 years, the Colosseum is the largest and most famous amphitheatre ever built. Fortunately, it’s still standing today for you to discover. With this highly recommended private tour, you’ll visit Rome’s most popular attractions alongside a local guide.

Start your tour by entering the majestic Colosseum, where you’ll learn about history dating back to the days of ancient Rome. Thrilling anecdotes and stories about past emperors and gladiators will come to life while told by your professionally trained guide. One local guides says, ‘Despite being damaged by fires, earthquakes and looting, this huge structure has survived the centuries and is still the most impressive monument of the Roman era.’

Following your visit to the Colosseum, your guide will take you to the site of the Roman Forum archeological site, which for centuries was the centre of daily life in Rome, and then continue to Palatine Hill, which stands 40 metres above the Roman Forum. The guide explains, ‘Palatine Hill is the centermost of the famous "7 Hills of Rome" and certainly one of the most historic places in the city. Here, you can gaze at the Forum on one side and the Circus Maximus on the other.’

    We booked with Tui the “Private tour of Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill with local expert guide”. We had Andrada as our tour guide who was excellent. She was friendly, knowledgeable and extremely passionate and enthusiastic regarding the history of Rome. Subsequently, me and my two other friends enjoyed thoroughly and learnt heaps of new information in a way which was easy to understand. Well worth the money and couldn’t of asked for a better guide
