1. Starting from the Underground: The tour begins with a licensed guide in the underground level of the Colosseum – the area where gladiators and wild animals were kept and prepared before entering the arena. Here, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at ancient Roman combat: narrow corridors, animal cages, and the fascinating engineering systems like manually operated elevators. 2. Continue to the Arena Floor: Next, you'll enter the arena floor with your guide – the very stage where the battles took place. From this perspective, you’ll see the Colosseum just as the gladiators once did. 3. Free visit to the First and Second Levels: After the guided portion ends, you're free to explore the first and second levels of the Colosseum on your own. Take your time, enjoy the views, and capture as many photos as you like, this part of the visit has no time limit.

You can freely enter the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill after your Colosseum tour ends. The entrance is located next to the Arch of Constantine. As you walk through the ruins, you’re stepping among the remains of the Senate House, temples, markets, and triumphal arches. Emperors, generals, senators, and philosophers once walked these very paths.

According to myth, this is where Romulus, the founder of Rome, established the city in 753 BC. Why visit Palatine Hill? It was the residential area of Roman emperors. It offers a peaceful atmosphere, ancient ruins, and breathtaking views over the Roman Forum and Colosseum. Walking through its imperial palaces, gardens, and panoramic terraces gives you a true sense of ancient Roman grandeur.
