The Colosseum during the evening is an impressive and dramatic sight not to be missed by any visitor to Rome. Now you can experience this scene both inside and out, on our special access evening tour.  

Experience the Colosseum Without the Crowds

You’ll enter the Colosseum when this ancient amphitheater is at its most quiet. With an expert, English-speaking guide on hand, you’ll explore restricted areas usually closed to the public.

See Spectacular View of the Roman Forum

Your tour begins at the Trajan's Column and you'll pass through Via dei Fori Imperiali overlooking the Roman Forum. From your bird’s eye view, you’ll hear about the birth of Rome and the exploits of emperors who took turns building the empire up and tearing it down.

Take a Personal Tour of the Colosseum

After the Forum, your guide will lead you to the crown jewel of Rome: the Colosseum. Here you will hear the tales that bring the amphitheater to life – the rituals carried out by gladiators before battle; the emperors who decided life or death; and the politics that played out in the arena. You will also admire the most recent discovery of graffiti representing people’s names, dates, sacred and profane symbols illustrating stories about people who lived, worked and hung out at Colosseum.

Small Groups & Expert Guides

With groups of only 20 people or less, your tour will be intimate and your guide easy to interact with. This unique tour is perfect for visitors who want to explore the Colosseum at a slower pace than is possible during the chaotic (and hot!) daylight hours.
