The tour then takes you to Piazza Venezia and the road of the Fori Imperiali, leading to the majestic Colosseum. Known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, the Colosseum once held over 50,000 spectators and remains one of the world’s most impressive monuments. Skip the lines and step back into the world of gladiators and emperors.
