Swap the Guidebook for a Stroll and See Rome After Hours Together
As daylight fades, Rome doesn’t go to bed; it steps into the most seductive light. Imagine strolling through the Eternal City under streetlamps and stars, with fewer crowds, cooler air, and monuments bathed in magic. Whether it’s ancient ruins, secret stories, or gelato-fueled ramblings, evening tours give you the city’s heartbeat after hours.

A Night at the Colosseum
Fewer crowds, no blazing sun, and all the ancient drama. This after-hours tour gets you inside the Colosseum’s underground tunnels and up to the arena floor, lit just right for goosebumps and good stories.
When: Tuesdays & Thursdays, 8:00 pm–midnight (last entry 10:30 pm)
Price: see the website
[Note: Can’t get a booking on the popular Colosseum night tour? Don’t worry, there’s a solid Colosseum & Roman Forum alternative via Get Your Guide that hits similar highlights and costs about half the price. Totally worth considering if you're booking last-minute or traveling on a budget in Rome.]
Under the Sky of Rome
Sergio’s evening walk blends legends, cryptic corners, and just enough spook to keep things interesting. Think purgatory vibes, relics, and seven kilometers of storytelling with a touch of theatrical flair.
When: sotto il cielo di roma
Community tip: Come with comfy shoes, a full belly, and an open mind; fear is optional, but curiosity is required!
Trastevere Treats & Street Art
Angela’s Trastevere walk is a local favorite: murals, hidden courtyards, and the kind of stories you’d never get from a guidebook. Plus: real Roman snacks like supplì and biscotti that actually taste homemade.
Evenings That Stick With You
Rome at night hits different: softer light, deeper stories, and space to actually enjoy it. Walk with locals, find your people, and see the city’s after-hours charm up close. These aren’t just tours, they’re moving hangouts in the Eternal City!
