Colosseum or colosseo is an emblematic monument in the heart of Rome. It's one of those places where you feel the magic that connects you to your past. Even though crowded it's absolutely stunning. It also hosts a very good exhibition on the city of troy that we enjoyed. Our tickets included a walk through the palatine hills and roman forum as well as mammertime prison and I have to say the whole visit was surreal. Absolutely worth the visit! And don't forget to get your tickets early to avoid the long lines😉

Always crowded but still able to get good pictures and find a place to sit down. A good amount of indoor walking at the colosseum which was nice because of the heat. We had a great time.

I wasn't able to go inside the Coliseum and the Prison, but the audio provided me with so much detailed information that it made me feel like I was right in the middle of the scene—it was truly fascinating. Thank you.

It was a fantastic tour yesterday—I visited the Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel, and everything went very smoothly. The guide was very friendly, and the meeting point was easy to get to.

There's no such thing as skip-the-line admission. Besides, you can buy a ticket with a QR code, so I don't see the point in standing in line for 30 minutes to exchange it for paper tickets 😤. Other than that, the experience went well.

Our Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and Roman Forum tour was an unforgettable experience and one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. The tour was incredibly enlightening , bringing ancient Roman history to life with fascinating stories and insights. Walking through the Colosseum and imagining the gladiator battles was truly awe-inspiring. Palatine Hill offered stunning views of Rome, while the Roman Forum provided a remarkable glimpse into the heart of the ancient empire. The tour was well-organized, engaging, and informative. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to fully appreciate the history, culture, and grandeur of Ancient Rome.

    Superb experience i Colosseum! Such a place with so much history behind the ruins 🤩 We also booked the Mamertine Prison Museum which was very nice as well 🤩 Unfortunately we did not have a lot of time to enjoy Mamertine Prison or the ruins around Mamertine Prison and Colloseum due to short time before Colloseum and closing time to look at the ruins afterwards, which is a shame ... but overall a good experience 😇

    Too bad—you have to run a bit. We didn’t visit the prison because the Colosseum’s entry time is strict; we’d booked for 9:30 a.m. and it was too tight, so we had to run almost 2 kilometers round-trip to pick up the Colosseum ticket. And if you miss the time, you don’t get a refund. After that, you can go back to the prison, but you have to make the trip all over again, and after visiting the Colosseum and the Forum, you really have to be pretty young.

    The combination of the Mamertine Prison and the fact that you had to arrive an hour before the start time at the Colosseum is not customer-friendly and isn’t clearly explained in the options. At the Mamertine Prison, we had to stand in line to exchange our tickets. That wasn’t very customer-friendly either. Other than that, it was okay.
