Colosseum Tours & Tickets

Rome Coliseum, Wow Wow Wow, definitely make sure you do the guided tour for this one, the guide Stefano was superb, really knowledgeable and the overall experience was well worth the money and time spent listening to the story, history along with bringing it all to life. – Thanks Stefano!

5 stars from our group! It was the best idea to get this ticket, I definitely recommend it to everyone. Antonia is a wonderful guide - she made history come alive, she was informative, comprehensive, fun and amazing with the group. I'm sure all guides are great, but if it's possible, ask for Antonia :)

Fantastic, friendly and knowledgable tour guide called Laura Antonucc! She was engaging, entertaining yet highly informative and captivating. We got through security swiftly and missed the queues. They meet you at bottom of the Arc de Constantine. Would highly recommend!

Amazing, Damian is the best tour guide we have ever had, so very knowledge, his amazing story telling of the history of the Colosseum, was fabulous, every so often with humour which made the tour perfect, engaging with the group, just perfect, from the TALL man and short Italian woman with family in Calabria, very well done, big thank you… Ciao

Patrick was a superior guide who was able to keep our large group all together, even when 2 guests had mobility issues. He was funny, informative, patient, and it was the best tour I’ve ever had. I was skeptical about the headsets at first, but they turned out to be wildly useful.

Took us around colosseum explained everything. The lower part was not accessible. Enough times for photos. Next stop was palatine hill and roman forum but once it ended we had only access to palantine hill and roman forum. If we wanted to go explore more of colossesum that was not possible as guided tour ends.

Overall pretty good experience. Our tour guide was knowledgeable but not very personable. Learned a lot but next time I don’t think I would do a 3 hour tour. Also it was hard to hear in the headset. We were given one headphone and not 2 and there was not volume adjust button. But overall not a bad experience.

Well well it is highly recommended to hire a guide as this is one of the magnificent and as we know, it is one of the wonders of the world and thus if you want to the deepest history and hidden facts about the colosseum then you should get this tour. We were fascinated by the structure, history and really enjoyed the tour.

Our tour guide, Jessica from Crown Tours, was awesome and such a great tour guide. We got a good amount of history without being too much and she showed us a lot of great before and afters of the colosseum. She told us lots of fun facts about the colosseum and was very nice and funny.

The tour exceeded expectations. Our tour guide, Lou, was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. She made the tour interesting and fun. It was good paced and covered a lot of ground. It was also reasonably priced. I definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent educational tour. Tour guide appeared very passionate and knowledgeable. Colosseum was awesome. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to do the underground tour but staff were very apologetic and gave good explanation. Palantine Hill also a must do - amazing views.

Unfortunately the week before our visit we received an email saying the Colosseum had oversold tickets to the underground area and so this was being cancelled. We were moved to another group and got a partial refund however we specifically booked this tour for the underground portion. That being said our guide was excellent and using headphones made it so much easier to get round the busy site. You can actually see much of the underground level from the arena floor and the guide did spend time talking about it.

We had a great tour! Our guide Ginie, was so knowledgeable and shared fabulous stories which made the tour come alive. We were a large group but Ginie managed the size expertly and ensured we all felt included. Of course it was busy and hot at the Coliseum but we stopped often and left feeling well informed. A definite !

Eni was great today! Such a sweet and informative tour guide. He had so much history to share with us, it was fascinating. I especially loved going up to the Roman Forum and getting beautiful views of the Colloseum from the hill. It‘s a lot of walking and 3 hours so make sure you bring water and good shoes! It wasn’t too much though. Only complaint is that I would of liked more free time at the Colloseum to explore and take photos. Other then that, all round great tour guide and experience. Thank you!

We had a fantastic time!! Our guide Lumi was hilarious and we loved her humor. She was very informative and her pacing was awesome. She made sure that everyone got to stand in the shade or sit down when possible. We did the arena tour which was cool to be on the ground floor.

I’ll never forget my first time seeing the Colosseum. Even though it was pouring rain, we enjoyed our tour with our guide Lou. Lou gave so much detail on Roman history and was very interactive and funny. I felt very welcomed by her and she did a great job. Would definitely choose this company again.

This was the best tour we have had in Rome. We were unavoidably late to the meeeting point due to the Colusium changing the time. Nick was very good at getting us in to meet up with the rest of the group. He really went above and beyond to make sure we still made it. Lorenzo was a very knowledgeable guide. We had a very indepth experience. I will use them again for future tours.

I really loved this tour. Our guid Fredrico was knowledgable and entertaining, he made such a long trip fun and interesting, answered all the questions and took care of everyone, Allowed time for us to take pictures and enjoy the space. Very Recommended. I would suggesting adding an option of going underground the Colosseum too.

Great experience! Radu was a great guide and very knowledgeable! Only sad part was we paid to tour the bottom part of the Colloseum and it was canceled w/o explanation. There were other groups down below, our family was bummed that we couldn't see that part but others were down there.

We had a very knowledgeable guide - Alessandro - who quickly moved though some technical challenges to give us a very thorough commentary of the Forum, Palatine Hill and Colosseum. It was enjoyable but a lot to take in and left us all a bit overwhelmed and exhausted… better that than the alternative! Highly recommend but suggest making it the only activity that day .
