The beauty of choosing a private tour of the Colosseum lies not only in the depth of knowledge you will receive but in the flexibility of the itinerary. The tour can be tailored to your needs and the guide can spend more time in areas that you find particularly interesting. A Colosseum private tour is a great option for families with children that are studying the Ancient Roman Empire as well as for those with limited mobility that might fall behind during a group tour.

For visitors that are keen to visit the Colosseum’s restricted areas, a private tour can also accompany you to the Colosseum Arena Floor or Colosseum Underground (the underground portion may be presented by a Colosseum staff member). With a private guide, the tour of the Colosseum is a relaxing and enjoyable experience. You won’t have to worry about large groups or waiting on other travelers.
