Guided tour of the lower level of the Colosseum (hypogeum) and the upper tier (third level) with VIP access
Approx: 3.5 hours
Just last year, the Colosseum opened up its hypogeum, the area beneath the arena where gladiators and animals waited for their turn to fight. Those who have been rave that it's the only way to really feel the ancient games come to life! With currently no official opening dates announced following this season, this could be the once-in-a-lifetime chance to visit these archaeologically sensitive areas. You'll explore this spooky underground, as well as the upper tier third level and the Roman Forum accompanied by one of our expert guides. Once you've had your fill of blood and gore at the Colosseum (and learned how it took the Romans 325 years to get their fill!), experience the very heart of ancient Rome: the Roman Forum. Here was where Rome ruled its empire of untold political and cultural influence. Your guide will bring it all to life with tales of love, betrayal, and larger-than-life characters (Caesar, Cleopatra, Mark Antony etc), plus with great visual aids and reconstructions to show you how it all would have looked 2,000 years ago.
