Tour Description
Explore three of Rome’s most fascinating sites on this three-hour Colosseum and St. Clemente tour. Your first stop is the Colosseum, the world’s most iconic amphitheater. Then we’ll wander the Roman Forum, an archaeological theme park of temples, basilicas, and monolithic triumphal arches. To round things of, we’ll be exploring the storied basilica of St. Clemente.
The fascinating medieval basilica of St. Clemente perfectly encapsulates the city of Rome. For hidden beneath its floors just out of side of its visitors is an underworld treasure just waiting to be explored. Explore them with us today as we embark on this adventure, delving into Rome’s glorious past.
Visit Rome’s architectural triumph: the mighty Colosseum
The Colosseum stands supreme as a classic symbol of Rome’s brutality. Your expert guide will bring the Colosseum to life, telling you stories about the gladiators, emperors and spectators who took part in what was the show to see in Rome. Relive the legends and stories of this iconic Roman building.
Explore the immersive Roman Forum
Then, your guide will take you to explore the Roman Forum and will tell you all there is to know about the fascinating history of the true political, religious, and economic heart of ancient Rome. A place where political alliances were formed, conspiracies hatched, religious and civic duties performed, judgements passed, and trade agreements reached.
Venture beneath the Basilica of St. Clemente
For the next part of your Colosseum and St. Clemente tour, we move onto a different yet equally iconic building: the Basilica of San Clemente. This is an archaeologist’s Pandora ’s Box with its three-tiered complex of buildings it will allow you to descend below the depths of earth into 2000 years of history.
The church has many guises: a 2nd century Mithraeum, the house of a Roman nobleman, a pagan temple, an ancient lower basilica dating back to the 4th century and decorated with frescoes and finally an upper layer Basilica dating back to the 12th century filled with mosaics. Delve underground beneath the basilica, and peel away the archaeological layers to transport yourself back in time.
The combination these two attractions on your Colosseum and St. Clemente tour is a great way to engage with ancient aspects of Roman history.
