With a smartphone in hand and the freedom to wander at your own pace, this experience gives you the best of both worlds: total flexibility and rich storytelling.
Let’s break down what your Roman adventure looks like 👇
🎧 Start with Your Digital Companion
Upon booking, you’ll receive easy instructions to download a multilingual audio guide app . Plug in your earphones, hit play, and you're ready to time travel. Whether you're a history buff or a curious explorer, the guide offers just the right amount of information — no long lectures, just captivating stories about emperors, battles, gods, and architecture.
🏟️ First Stop: The Colosseum – Rome’s Grand Arena
No trip to Rome is complete without stepping inside the mighty Colosseum . Skip the long lines and head straight in (yes, that’s included!).
Once inside, let the app bring the amphitheater to life. Hear about gladiator fights , animal hunts , and the incredible stage technology that made Roman entertainment so jaw-dropping. If you choose the option with Arena Floor access , you’ll get to stand where the action actually happened — truly an unforgettable moment. You’ll feel the atmosphere still echoing in the stones around you.
📸 Pro tip: The best photo spot? From the upper levels, where you can see the entire arena and even some views of Rome beyond.
🏛️ Step into the Roman Forum – The Heart of the Empire
Next up: the Roman Forum , once the beating heart of political and social life in Ancient Rome.
Walk through the remains of basilicas, temples, and arches while hearing tales of betrayals, trials, and victories . This is where Julius Caesar gave speeches, where Senate meetings were held, and where everyday Romans went about their lives.
The app will point out details you might miss otherwise — like carvings that once told stories or the ruins of important government buildings.
🗺️ It’s a good idea to bring water and comfy shoes. The stones are ancient and uneven, but every step tells a story.
🌄 Climb Palatine Hill – Where Rome Was Born
Last but not least, make your way up to Palatine Hill , the legendary birthplace of Rome, said to be founded by Romulus himself.
Wander through the ruins of opulent imperial palaces , where emperors once lived surrounded by gardens, fountains, and panoramic views of the city. From the top, you’ll spot the Circus Maximus in the distance — once the site of chariot races that could hold over 150,000 spectators.
🌿 This part of the tour offers a quieter, more reflective atmosphere. Fewer crowds and plenty of shade make it the perfect place to pause, take photos, or just soak in the moment.
