San Clemente Basilica and Colosseum fascinating tour

Pamela_K, Sep 2026

San Clemente Basilica was quite a unique experience going several levels underground and learning about the history of these Roman structures. Marina was very interesting and knowledgeable in answering all of our many questions. We were impressed with her knowledge of Roman history and we learned a lot! The Colosseum was fabulous and captivating as was expected. We recommend the Basilica and Colosseum tour and request Marina as your guide.
