Private Immersive Colosseum
What your day looks like
Our private Immersive Colosseum tour brings Ancient Rome vividly to life as you embark on an unforgettable journey into the distant past, reconstructing the glory of the antique world's greatest city through its imposing ruins. Exploring the Colosseum, the Forum, and the Palatine Hill, you’ll tread the very ground where mighty emperors, fearsome gladiators, and great orators made their mark on the ancient world and wrote themselves into history. With the help of our expert guide, you'll be able to make sense of what you see in the spaces that were once the political and religious heart of Rome. At the heart of our tour is the spectacular Colosseum, a wonder of architecture and a miracle of engineering even today. The deadly spectacles of life and death that took place there were wildly popular, and to understand why, we’ll have to get into the minds of the ancient Romans themselves. Recreating a day at the games, we’ll practically hear the distant roars of the beasts in the arena and the screams of enraptured crowds. In the magnificently preserved Roman Forum nearby, your guide will weave tales of political intrigue, betrayal, and murder worthy of a Hollywood thriller. Learn about the assassination of Julius Caesar and Cicero’s tragic end; discover the religious rituals of Ancient Rome in front of great temples, and relive the inspiring speeches of Roman rulers in the Senate. Wander through luxurious Imperial palaces on the leafy Palatine hill, and learn about the incredible excesses of fabulously wealthy emperors drunk on power. As the spellbinding panorama of Rome spreads out all before us from this spectacular vantage point, see how Rome’s past still lives on in the city today.

What travelers are saying
We had a wonderful morning with Eugenia! She was great at navigating the crowds and brought additional documents, like artist renderings of ancient Rome, to help bring these historic spaces to life!
Our guide Olga was extremely knowledgeable and did her best to give two slow walking seniors a fabulous tour of the Palatine hill, forum and Coliseum. She made sure we got to all the extra experiences I didn't even know I had signed up for. Highly recommend this tour
We loved this tour! Our guide, Siriki Dembele, was so knowledgeable and friendly. He did an excellent job.
Dennis was fantastic.
