The Colosseum is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy, just east of the Roman Forum. It is the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the largest standing amphitheatre in the world, despite its age.

Admission included60 min

The Forum was the centre of day-to-day life in Rome: the site of triumphal processions and elections; the venue for public speeches, criminal trials and gladiatorial matches and the nucleus of commercial affairs.

Admission included60 min

The Palatine Hill, which relative to the seven hills of Rome is the centremost, is one of the most ancient parts of the city; it has been called "the first nucleus of the Roman Empire".

Wow feeling

The Colosseum doesn’t just stand — it _breathes_. Sunlight slipping through ancient arches, the hush of thousands of years under your feet, it feels like the stones still remember the roar of the crowd. And the ticket seller deserves a cheer too . I didn’t just see Rome. I felt it.

A wonderful trip to the Colosseum.

An absolute must. A wonderful trip with our family of four (7 year old and 11 year old kids). Well informed with tickets and information, the audio guide was a short half hour informative guide. Would absolutely recommend.

It’s great to know that the tickets and information made everything smooth, and that the audio guide added value without taking too much time—perfect for both kids and adults. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you all again on another adventure soon.

Good experience

Tickets arrived via email as described. Good experience. The Colleseum was very busy, but enjoyable. Audio tour is via the iPhone application you need to download.

The price is a rip-off

We paid 82 euros for the visit, and the surprise was that the tickets ONLY cost 36e since children do not pay for admission. At no time were we told that children entered for free. A robbery.

Operator response

Estimado visitante: Hemos indicado claramente el precio del Coliseo en la descripción de nuestro producto. Usted realizó la reserva a través de una plataforma, por lo que también se incluye una comisión. Nuestro equipo se encarga de gestionar sus entradas, ofrecer atención al cliente e incluir la audioguía. Los demás costes cubren los servicios y gastos adicionales de la experiencia. Gracias por su comprensión.

Poor guidance

Never got the audio guide for this tour. Basically just paid for the ticket (which without the audio tour was way too much). Colloseum is definitely worth visiting though. Spectacular place.
