VIP Colosseum At Night Tour With Underground & Arena Floor

3 hours
Max 24 people
Rome, Italy

Full description

After the Colosseum’s doors close to the general public, step inside for a nighttime tour and see the ancient amphitheater and arena lit up in their evening glory. This special-access tour also includes entry to the Colosseum Underground—where gladiators and wild beasts where held before being released to the arena floor.
Stop At: Colosseum
Description: Meet your guide as the sun sets over Rome and arrive at the Colosseum as the crowds begin to shuffle out. Experience the Colosseum in a more intimate setting as you descend into the underground Hypogeum to see the cells where the gladiators and animals were kept. Head back up to the arena floor, where the guards will open the gates just for you. Walk in the footsteps of gladiators who fought for glory on a floor just like this one. Soak up the Colosseum from this amazing vantage point.

Chutes mythiques et impressionnantes mais les explications de la visite sont parfois inutiles et servent à combler le temps.
