About this tour
Step from Rome’s busy streets into layers of ancient history on a private tour of the Catacombs, Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. With a private tour leader and chauffeur, you can move between landmark sites in comfort while a professional guide brings their stories to life.
Explore the Colosseum, the vast arena commissioned by Vespasian and completed by Titus in 80 AD. Continue through the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, where the remains of ancient Rome reveal the scale of the city’s political and public life. Then visit one of the catacombs open on your tour date. These underground burial passages were carved beyond the old city walls, reflecting early Christian burial traditions. Catacomb visits are organized in groups, while your private transportation connects the stops.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.80 from 5 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1.
