Overview

Get ready to have a private, full-day guided tour and submerge yourself in an ancient Rome ambiance!

You'll be picked up from your hotel in an accessible vehicle to the spot of your first visit: the "Colosseum", which is the largest theater in the world. You'll tour the inside of the arena and look at the original arches. Your knowledgeable guide will explain its importance for ancient Rome and other facts.

The Colosseum is wheelchair accessible. It has a ramp entrance, accessible restrooms on-site, and an elevator to reach the second floor, where you can look down at the Colosseum and view the city.

Afterward, you'll travel in a wheelchair-accessible van to the Roman Forum. This ancient marketplace later housed many important buildings of the old Roman government and was influential in Roman social and political life.

At the entrance of the Roman Forum, an elevator is available to take you down to explore the ancient ruins. However, it's important to note that only approximately 20% of the grounds are wheelchair accessible once you reach the lower level, and there are no accessible restrooms on-site. We can arrange an all-terrain Joëlette wheelchair rental for you for an extra charge.

Next, you'll stop by the Arch of Titus, the Arch of Constantine, and the Imperial Palaces, located on the top of Palatine Hill. You'll get up the hill by accessible van, and the floors are paved.

At the end of the tour, you'll be driven back to your hotel in an accessible vehicle.

The Colosseum was used for more than 4 centuries to celebrate the great organized fights of gladiators that came from all corners of the Roman Empire. The tour begins with the entry through one of the principal gates, The Gate of Death (porta Libitina) dedicated to the goddess of funerals. Afterwards, guests will see the original arches and the remains of the Imperial, Senators, and Triumphalist gates. The last part of the tour around the Colosseum will take place in the second floor, which wheelchair users can access using an elevator.

  4. Roman Forum

    The political and civil heart of ancient Rome beats beneath a complex stratification of streets, squares and buildings whose history, excavations and restorations have repeatedly changed its face: an archaeological panorama unique worldwide that includes masterpieces of medieval art. The Forum was originally covered by a swamp. It was only in the late 7th century BCE that the valley was reclaimed and the Roman Forum began to take shape. It was destined to remain the centre of public life for over a millennium. The various monuments were built through the centuries: first the buildings for political, religious and commercial activities, then during the 2nd century BCE the civil basilicas, used for judicial activities. Already at the end of the republican age, the ancient Roman Forum had become insufficient to serve as the administrative and representative centre of the city. The various dynasties of emperors added only prestigious monuments: the Temple of Vespasian and Titus and that of Antoninus Pius and Faustina, dedicated to the memory of the deified emperors, and the monumental Arch of Septimius Severus, built at the western end of the Forum in 203 CE to celebrate the emperor’s victories over the Parthians.

    It's important to note that only approximately 20% of the grounds are wheelchair accessible once you reach the lower level, and there are no accessible restrooms on-site. We can arrange an all-terrain Joëlette wheelchair rental for you for an extra charge.
