Colosseum Tours & Tickets

This tour and tour guide was the best tour I’ve ever had! I didn’t know what to expect … but it wasn’t getting one of the funnest, SO interesting and knowledgeable experiences of my life! Aerion (sorry I can’t remember the spelling) was our tour guide and he just made our experience that much better. I could almost say he made the experience, he really did! … seeing the colosseum was so amazing! The information, the facts that we learned and were told, were the best in the world! Palatine Hill and the Forum was absolutely incredible! Please do a tour of these, you will have the time of your life!!!! - J. & S.

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.

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!

Augustino was a fantastic tour guide! He was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor, keeping us all entertained and at ease. The tour process was smooth and the headsets worked great. Loved the ease of getting around these 3 areas with guidance and minimal waiting. Would highly recommend this tour and guide!!

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.

Eni was literally a fountain of information about the history of the Colosseum and its environs. He is a an exemplary tour guide who has been continurally learning for the past 10 years. I can't imagine having a better guide. I am certain he told us things that nobody else would notice or know. We had enough time to stop and take photos; he was sensitive to the needs of everyone and answered all our questions.

This was a good tour overall, we started off with roman forum and palatine Hill and got access to the arena and collosseum with skip the line entry. Our guide was a lovely lady and explained everything well and went into details about some of the history. The only hiccup was that we got lost in the crowd before entering the colloseum and while we had the radios active it was very difficult to find the group and guide given hundreds of people are pushing you and trying to enter. We eventually found them but had a bit of panic as we were trying to call the tour agency but they were not picking up my calls at that time. Eventually our guide realised and came back to find us at one of the entry gates of the colloseum. My suggestion would be if the company can provide an active number to call in case of emergencies or if the guides mention a meeting spot to wait in case people get separated. There were many scarfs that looked like the one our guide used so we couldn't rely on that.

While we didn’t get to see the lower portion of the Colosseum, they did issue a partial refund. Sometimes it gets overbooked and that was why we were bumped. The reminder of the tour was fantastic. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Would absolutely recommend the tour.

My wife & i visited underground sep 2022 thought it was a great experience feel it could of been better with a differant guid (for us she just spoke to much most being long) we like facts imagination feel the history, so in a nut shell great tour with the right guid .

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.

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.

Our guide Magna very, knowledgeable, helpful & Spoke clear English. We had great access and support from guide Nick. To everyone booking trip take ID, including kids. Fantastic History & legendary sights With Memory making photo opportunities. Highly recommend. Thank you Maria

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.

We chose a tour that included the underground area of the Colosseum. Also chose the tour that meant very little queuing and was advertised as a small group. We ended up being a tour of 4 people plus our guide Maya. It was an excellent tour made more interesting by our well informed local guide Maya.

This was our first guided tour experience ever so we were a bit hesitant but it was absolutely worth it. These destinations are so overrun with tourists and so devoid of signage that it felt essential to have someone to help appreciate the ruins. We can't stop talking about all that we saw and will definitely be back!

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 :)

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 !

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.

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!

The tour was great and walked through a lot of historical sites of Rome. Our tour guide was super knowledgeable and explained in depth about various parts of the history of Rome + archeological sites and such. I would recommend this tour, very cool and informative!
