Guidekin's take

A private guide for a night walk that reads as an introduction to the whole city: the Colosseum, the Imperial road, Trajan's Column and Michelangelo's square on the Capitoline, told from the legendary foundation onwards, rated 4.99 across 203 reviews.

The guide is included at €150 per person, transport and pickup are not. Moderate fitness for the climb.

In our comparison: #5 of 56 in Night Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
