Over 2,000 years ago, Rome stood as the capital of the largest empire in Europe, a city filled with extraordinary monuments and architectural marvels. Ancient Rome was adorned with marble temples, grand courthouses, 11 aqueducts, thermal baths, theaters, circuses, obelisks, and countless other impressive structures. Many of these ancient ruins are still visible today — and this guided walking tour brings them vividly to life.

Step back in time as a licensed local guide leads you inside the Colosseum, one of the most iconic landmarks in the world. Explore the arena, seating levels, and ingenious architectural features while learning about gladiators, the spectacles they performed, and how ancient Romans enjoyed entertainment and public life.

Continue into the heart of the Roman Forum, once the political, religious, and social center of the Roman Empire. Visit the Senate House (Curia), where crucial political decisions shaped history; the Rostra, where Roman leaders addressed the crowds; the Temple of Saturn, home to the state treasury; monumental triumphal arches honoring victorious generals; and the Temple of Julius Caesar, built on the site of his cremation.

The tour concludes on Capitoline Hill, in front of the famous equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius, in the center of the breathtaking square designed by Michelangelo — a fitting finale to an immersive journey through Ancient Rome.
