The Colosseum or Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of concrete and stone, it is the largest amphitheatre ever built. The Colosseum is situated just east of the Roman Forum. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian in 72 AD, and was completed in 80 AD under his successor and heir Titus. Dedicated for use by the Roman people and free of charge, it was the largest structure of its kind in the Roman world; its seating capacity of 50,000 spectators was exceeded only by the capacity of the Theatre of Marcellus.

We had a Colosseum tour with Yanira and we couldn’t wish for a better guide. Yanira is very friendly, extremly knowledgeable, she explains the history facts in the best possible and un a such interesting way.
Do not hesitate to book her for your memorable Rome tours. We wished we had booked more tours with her.

Great morning in rome
We had a great morning exploring Roma with Simone today. He is great company and a thoroughly knowledgeable guide to the city, particularly good with children. The many hidden open doors of Rome were revealed to us upon this tour.
Thank you Simone for sharing your city with us.

The perfect start to our stay in Rome
Simone tailored the tour to our interests. We found and learned about some wonderful hidden gems all in a relaxed and easy tour. We also came away with some great restaurants off the beaten tourist track. We’d definitely recommend Simone - thanks for a great tour!

Excellent Tour! Highly Recommend
My family of four really enjoyed our Hidden Gem tour with Simone. It was the perfect tour to kick start our Rome visit. Simone had so many stories to share - we especially enjoyed hearing about Italian politics, life in Italy and the fun little stories about Rome.
