Top Levels Colosseum Small-Group Tour - Unrivaled Views of Rome

As of June 1st all participants are required to bring a valid form of ID to enter the restricted areas of the Colosseum (passport, drivers license or government ID). Photo copies are acceptable.

With your expert guide and in your small group of maximum 6 people, you will enter with skip-the-line privileges into the Colosseum. From here your guide will take you on an extensive tour through all upper levels of the Colosseum and back in time as you walk past the seats of emperors, noblemen and peasants alike. Each level will give you an idea of what it was like for the people of many social classes to experience battle and bloodshed below. As you climb each tier, your guide will explain the genius planning it took to create this infamous landmark, and the methods used for theatrical special effects.

Captivating audiences of up to 80,000 per game, the games were not just battles but also dramatic performances, and not just reserved for the privileged. Your expert guide will explain why all social classes were able to witness such spectacles, and how the rulers of this great empire were able to keep the masses well behaved with the concept of 'bread and circuses'.

With your professional guide, walk through the various seating areas of all social classes, from the emperors and high priests, to the nobleman and the working class - this tour will give you a comprehensive understanding on this infamous landmark and what it was like to live in these ancient times. You will also receive the added value of spectacular views of the Eternal City!

ABOUT OUR 6 PEOPLE SMALL GROUP POLICY

When you book a small group tour, you are guaranteed one tour guide per group of 6 people. Please bear in mind though that in order to accommodate traveling families and friends, we do on rare occasion make the exception of adding an additional one to two guests in order not to split groups who are traveling together. On that same note, you may find yourself on tour with less than six people. As we accept bookings in multiples of six, math doesn’t always work in our favor to help accommodate individual travelers and their families when on the same tour, so we hope you understand and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
