COLOSSEUM DOMES CLIMB

 It is said that if one compares Rome with Florence (never do that), the Eternal City is rather thin on the ground, as it were, as regards climbing domes and bell towers. Perhaps it is for this very reason that climbing the Vatican dome has been the top attraction in Rome since 2018 (even if it's in the Vatican City :).

 St. Peter's dome climb is indeed an essential activity when in Rome, but in reality, Rome has no shortage of domes, in fact, our skyline is defined by domes, so what is there to see and do above terra firma?

 We've spent many years clambering and climbing around ancient Rome, observing the entire area from the Colosseum Belvedere, Roman Forum, and ancient Palatine Hill. There are dozens of landmarks in Rome that deliver memorable views, absolutely on a par with what can be seen from St. Peter's dome.

 Colosseum Domes Climb reaches all the highest points in Rome by way of lost trails and long forgotten terraces known only to locals. Your private guide is a working archaeologist and Roman historian of even higher repute.

 On this tour you will catch all the highlights of ancient and historical Rome. We include first entrance to two must-see museums after all the climbing, after all, you will want to see what once stood in the places you've been looking down upon. Your expert guide will then connect everything you have seen outside with what the museums protect inside.

 Colosseum Domes Climb is a revision of our original "Rome with a View" tour that scales the heights of Roman history. Let's see Rome from dome level!

WHAT TO EXPECT

 Rated 4.7 / 5 by Alan S on August 24th, 2023  Enjoyable afternoon with guide Lucia that took in all the heights of ancient Rome around the Colosseum and both of the big museums nearby.

 Rated 5 / 5 by Christian D on June 7th, 2021  Such an amazing tour, especially for our kids! No end of places to climb and explore. We were taken to a purpose-built terrace that towers high over the Roman Forum and Colosseum, and then climbed to many other places with nice views. There were not many (or any) other people or groups doing what we were doing and we felt quite special. Our guide Ale took us around the main ancient Rome museum and then nearby to an amazing museum that was once a Renaissance palace. Now it's full of sculptures that were all as beautiful for us as what we saw inside the Gallery Borghese. This tour covers so much ground and above ground too - great experience!
