Matt was an awesome guide! We were really glad we paid for a tour - we got a lot more out of the experience than we would have going on our own.

Had a wonderful experience booking tours on the dedicated Grayline Roma website. Had Fabio Lorenzini as my guide for my Coliseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. It was booked as a group tour, but lucked out as the only guests. Fabio was absolutely wonderful. He provided excellent information, was a great communicator, and has a fabulous personality. I wouldn’t hesitate Fabio as a guide and would personally request for him when booking private tours!

Itinerary
Tour duration: 3 hours.
Walk in the footsteps of giants on this guided tour through the heart of the Roman Empire. Travel back in time as you visit these icons of Roman architecture. Delve deep into Rome’s long history as your experienced guide shares stories from the minute to the magnificent.
Contemplate the genius that took the Colosseum from concept to reality in 70/80 AD, centuries before modern engineering. This was once the most famous meeting place in the world holding 50,000-80,000 spectators. Inside, breathe in the Colosseum’s bloody past brought to life again by your guide.
Leaving the Colosseum, you'll see the magnificent Arch of Constantine before arriving at the excavated ruins of the Roman Forum archaeological site, where many structures remain intact to this day.
On Palatine Hill, you’ll learn about the legend of Romulus and Remus. One legend suggests this is how Rome was named for Romulus.
The tour ends at the Colosseum. Explore the area further or make your own way back to your accommodation.
