The Roman Forum was the center of political, social, and commercial life in ancient Rome. Visitors can walk through the ruins of this once bustling hub and imagine the grandeur and activity that took place there. The Palatine Hill is famous for its association with Roman emperors. Explore the ruins of opulent palaces, including the Domus Augustana and the House of Livia, which provide insights into the luxurious lifestyles of the Roman elite. The Roman Forum and Palatine Hill are part of the same archaeological complex, and a combined ticket allows access to both sites. Exploring these sites together provides a comprehensive experience of ancient Rome, immersing you in the grandeur of the Roman Empire and its rich history.

The Palatine is one of the seven hills included in the original city’s plan. Next to the Roman Forum, the Capitoline Hill, the Circus Maximus and the Colosseum, it is located in the very middle of ancient Rome’s city, political and business life. It stands at approximately 50 meters above the ground, and, today, with its peaceful atmosphere, rich in history, but surrounded by nature, it feels like a rare oasis in the midst of one of the busiest capitals of Europe.

Don’t! Just Don’t

Terrible service. Would not recommend unless you can 100% guarantee you can make the tour time. Even then, you are chancing having a good experience. Tour operator would not work with us as we had unforeseen circumstances with our international flight being canceled. We asked that they move or booking to another day well in advance of the date and time. When I finally got ahold of the tour guide on a phone call, it was in the middle of the time of our booking. They were giving our tour to someone else. Sounds like they got our money and then still sold the time to someone else. This would have been our first experience booking thru Viator. Will probably never book another tour thru this app or definitely thru this tour operator.

Operator response

Good afternoon , You booked and did not Come.(No Show) It is a time and name ticket , You can not Change it, even we can't. Even the last moment. So, If you do not come to attend the tour what should we do. You told this is your fist time booking , So, first of all you have to know how it works .Our educated, gentle and knowledgeable customers are doing the same tour and giving the maximum rating. However, This kind of booking disrupt us a lot to continue our work . Thank you.

If you're on the fence - do it!

This was an excellent tour! Scott did a great job answering our questions & explaining the history of everything. We had done a larger group tour before but there was so much we missed. This was well worth the purchase and we highly recommend it!
