Private Tour of Monumental & Ancient Rome including VIP access to the Colosseum Back

This private tour of Rome is one of the most comprehensive tours of Rome we offer and includes VIP tickets to the Colosseum as well as guided tour.

 

The tour starts with pick up at either your hotel or cruise ship by a local English speaking Roman Driver-Guide who will reveal many of the splendours of the Eternal City over the course of the day, where you will have the opportunity to visit the Eternal City's highlights including the Spanish steps, Trevi fountain, Colonna Square, Venezia Square, Arch of Constantine, Roman theaters, Castel St. Angelo, Navona Square, Pantheon and much more.

 

Driving into the historical center of Rome, you will pass by and admire the Pyramid of Caius Cestius, the ruins of Caracalla Baths, the Capitol and Piazza Venezia, the city's center square. 

 

The Colosseum dates back to 80 AD and is perhaps the greatest and most famous of the city's monuments and in the afternoon you will have the chance to skip the line ups and go right inside to begin your private tour. 

 

In the past centuries, about 50,000 spectators sat here spellbound as gladiators locked in fights and wild beasts were slained. The horror and fascination of it all springs to life as you explore these ruins. You will pause at a vantage point overlooking the Forum where numerous foundations, columns and arches have survived the religious, civil and commercial hub of imperial Rome.

 

This is a fantastic tour that focuses on the incredible history and legacy of the Eternal City. A wonderful experience away from the crowds, this is sure to be a tour that will go down in your own history books!
