Activity itinerary

Colosseum
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Step inside one of the world’s most legendary monuments and walk in the footsteps of gladiators, emperors, and Roman citizens. With your self-guided audio tour, you’ll explore the arena where epic battles once took place, wander through the tiers where tens of thousands of spectators gathered, and uncover the secrets of its ingenious engineering. The audio guide highlights stories of gladiatorial combat, political power, and daily Roman life, bringing the Colosseum’s history to life as you move at your own pace. We recommend allowing around 60 minutes here to fully experience the site — though with a self-guided tour, you’re free to linger longer or move quickly if you wish.
Roman Forum

Walk through the heart of ancient Roman life, where politics, commerce, and religion all came together. With your self-guided audio tour, you’ll uncover the ruins of temples, basilicas, and arches that once shaped the Roman Empire. Stand where senators debated in the Curia, stroll along the Via Sacra, and imagine bustling markets and public speeches echoing through the square. Your audio guide reveals the fascinating stories behind landmarks such as the Temple of Saturn, Arch of Titus, and the Rostra, offering a vivid picture of how Rome functioned at its peak. We recommend spending around 60 minutes exploring the Forum to fully absorb its history and atmosphere.
Palatine Hill
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Climb to the legendary birthplace of Rome and enjoy sweeping views over the Colosseum and Roman Forum. With your self-guided audio tour, you’ll explore the remains of imperial palaces where emperors once lived in luxury, including gardens, courtyards, and grand halls that showcase the power of ancient Rome. The audio guide brings to life myths of Romulus and Remus, the city’s founding brothers, and shares stories of how Palatine Hill became the most prestigious address in the Empire. Allow around 60 minutes here to take in the ruins, enjoy the viewpoints, and wander at your own pace through one of Rome’s most scenic archaeological sites.
