It was a wonderful trip. We first visited the Ossuary, then the Catacombs, and the last stop was the ancient Roman ruins under a church. It was a very fulfilling trip and worth recommending.

The tour guide Fabio👍Although he is Italian, he explained the whole process in Chinese (Chinese tour guide) and the explanation was careful and not sloppy. He was very attentive and the experience was very good! This itinerary is highly recommended to everyone, but please remember that if wheelchairs or strollers are not suitable for long walks, do not sign up for this itinerary.

This travel experience was very exciting, the entire itinerary was arranged smoothly and highly recommended! Booking tickets through Klook is very convenient and saves you the trouble of queuing. The tour guide is even more impressive. The Chinese tour guide is not only friendly, but also has rich historical knowledge, allowing us to have a deeper understanding of Rome's glorious past. The Roman Colosseum is one of the highlights of this trip. This great monument looks like a ruin from the outside, but with the help of the tour guide's explanation and pictures, we seem to have traveled through time and space and seen the prosperity of ancient Rome and the interior of the Coliseum. The exciting game scene. The whole city seems to be an open-air museum, with traces of history everywhere. This kind of itinerary is not only full of knowledge, but also allows you to feel the greatness of human civilization. It is really a travel experience not to be missed!

Remarkable Landmarks and Must-Visit Sights
Colosseum
Explore the grandeur of the Colosseum, where ancient gladiators once battled. Don't miss the underground area, the Hypogeum, for a deeper dive into its history.
Colosseum Outer Wall
Your experience begins before you ever set foot inside: the first sight of the Colosseum is always special. The crumbling ruin of the south side gives way to the imperious magnificence of the stunning north side. The ornate structure is 57 metres tall, built using travertine marble sourced from quarries around Italy.
The Second Floor
See the arena from above as you walk around the amphitheater. The second floor of the Colosseum would have been reserved for the wealthiest, most important members of Ancient Roman society. Marvel at the sheer size of the structure, the ornate stonework, and the general sense of greatness.
Culture and History
The Colosseum is a testament to the grandeur of Ancient Rome. Construction began under Vespasian in AD 70-72 and was completed in AD 80 by his son Titus. It hosted gladiatorial games, wild animal hunts, and even naval battles. The rise of Christianity led to the decline of these games, with the last gladiatorial fight taking place in AD 404. Despite damage from earthquakes and looting, the Colosseum remains a symbol of Rome's enduring legacy.
Local Cuisine
While visiting the Colosseum, indulge in Rome's culinary delights. Must-try dishes include pasta carbonara, cacio e pepe, and Roman-style pizza. Nearby trattorias and cafes offer a taste of authentic Roman flavors that will make your visit even more memorable.
