The Colosseum in Rome, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is the most iconic ancient structure of the city, completed in AD 80.

Its architectural grandeur and historical significance make it a symbol of ancient Roman engineering and culture. This testament to Rome’s rich history is yours to visit at your own pace with your reserved entrance and audioguide. Take your time discovering this symbol of Roman culture from top to bottom at your own pace.

The Via Sacra, or “Sacred Road,” was the main street of ancient Rome, running through the Roman Forum. It was a significant thoroughfare for religious and triumphal processions, connecting key temples and public spaces. Starting at the Capitoline Hill, it passed by important landmarks such as the Arch of Titus and the Temple of Vesta. The Via Sacra was central to public life in ancient Rome, serving as a path for ceremonies and a bustling hub of activity. Today, it remains a notable archaeological site, reflecting the grandeur of Rome’s past. Walk on it as you leave the Colosseum to reach the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill

The Roman Forum is a must-visit in Rome because it offers a captivating glimpse into the heart of ancient Roman civilization. Once the center of political, religious, and social life, it is home to iconic ruins such as the Temple of Saturn, the Arch of Septimius Severus, and the House of the Vestals. Walking through the Forum will allow you to experience the grandeur and complexity of Roman architecture, culture, and history. It will provide you a tangible connection to the events and figures that shaped the ancient world, making it an essential stop for any history enthusiast.

Palatine Hill is a crucial destination in Rome due to its historical and archaeological significance. As one of the city’s seven hills, it is traditionally considered the birthplace of Rome, where Romulus is said to have founded the city. The hill is home to extensive ruins of ancient palaces, including the Domus Augustana and the House of Livia, which reflect the opulence of Roman imperial life. Offering panoramic views of the Roman Forum and the Circus Maximus, the Palatine Hill provides a serene and evocative glimpse into Rome’s ancient past, making it a must-see to finish your exploration of the Ancient Rome!
