Overview
option 1 - Colosseum Underground Tour The Colosseum underground, or Hypogeum, was the stadium's hidden engine room. Beneath the arena floor lay a two-story network of tunnels and cages. Here, workers, gladiators, and wild animals waited in darkness. Using manual pulleys and wooden elevators, crews hoisted beasts and fighters through trapdoors. This created sudden, dramatic entrances that thrilled 50,000 spectators above. It is the ultimate backstage to Roman history. option 2 - Exclusive Arena Floor Full Experience Step onto the Colosseum Arena Floor through the Gladiator’s Gate for an exclusive, guided journey into Roman history.. Stand where historic battles took place and look out over the ancient stands. Your tour continues with a panoramic view of Palatine Hill to uncover Rome's founding legends, followed by an expert exploration of the temples and markets within the iconic Roman Forum.
