Make your Roman afternoon unforgettable with this VIP extra small group tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. With just 5 people per group, this experience offers the intimacy of a private tour with the energy of a shared discovery—perfect for couples or close-knit travel groups.
Begin inside the Colosseum, where your guide will lead you through a special access entrance onto the partially reconstructed Arena Floor. Standing where gladiators once fought, you’ll take in the shade and stillness of the afternoon—a quieter, more reflective way to experience this legendary space. Then ascend to the upper tier for panoramic views and photo opportunities from the perspective of ancient spectators.
Next, you’ll explore the Roman Forum, once the vibrant political and commercial center of the empire. Among the ruins of temples and basilicas, your guide will bring the ancient city to life with stories of senators, citizens, and sacred rituals.
The tour concludes with a scenic walk up the Palatine Hill, where emperors once built their palaces. Surrounded by ruins and shaded gardens, it’s one of the most peaceful—and powerful—spots in all of Ancient Rome.
Ideal for those who prefer a later start and a deeper connection to the past, this tour offers a timeless experience in the golden light of Rome’s afternoon.
