Our visit to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and the Palatine Hill went very smoothly, and we had no trouble getting in. What I liked most was that everything was well organized and we were able to explore at our own pace. It was a really fun day and a great opportunity to see these places in person.

We booked our tickets for the Borghese Gallery through Headout and the whole process was an absolute breeze. We were a couple of travelers from Greece visiting Rome for a few days, and we really didn't want to deal with long queues or scrambling for last-minute tickets (which are usually sold out anyway). The app was a lifesaver—we just showed the barcode on our phones at the entrance and walked right in. As for the gallery itself, words can't even describe it. It's honestly the most beautiful and well-curated museum we saw during our entire trip to Italy. What completely blew our minds were the sculptures by Bernini. Masterpieces like 'Apollo and Daphne' and 'The Rape of Proserpina' are so incredibly detailed that the marble literally looks like real, soft skin. Of course, being from Greece, we couldn't help but notice and be totally amazed by all the ancient Greek elements and mythology that dominate so many of the pieces, both in the sculptures and the stunning ceiling frescoes. It gave us a really nice sense of familiarity walking through those rooms. The organization inside the gallery was spot on, too. It wasn't overly crowded at all because of the strict two-hour time slots, which meant we could actually take our time and enjoy the art in peace. I highly recommend it—both visiting this amazing place and using the Headout platform, which worked like a charm!

I absolutely love Rome! It was our first time visiting Italy and seeing the Colosseum was definitely on our list. It has been on my bucket list for 50 yrs. The Colosseum was spectacular which tonnes of history! I unfortunately didn't realize until we got back to our hotel that I pre-purchased the audio guide, which would have been helpful during the visit, so that we had a better understanding. Oh well, my bad. Seeing the Roman Forum was also amazing! So rich in culture and history! I was so privleged to have been a guest in the country, the city and the Colosseum! Thank you!!

It's perfect, but the only downside is that you have to find the guide before going in so he can give you your paper ticket. With just the digital QR code, you won't be allowed in, and you'll get kicked out like a piece of trash.

Getting into the gallery was very easy, and the young woman from the agency who greeted us was very kind and helped us download the audio guide. The artworks at the gallery are beautiful, and the tour was fascinating. We were very satisfied.

We happened to visit on a very hot day, but even so, thanks to the app—which tells you where to enter—and the offline tickets, getting in was super fast. I highly recommend this app!!!

Cover two of Rome's most sought-after experiences, ancient ruins and a private Renaissance art collection, both secured on timed entry.

Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill: Timed entry across all three sites lets you explore the arena, forum, and hilltop grounds independently, with no guide or fixed route.

Borghese Gallery: Timed-slot entry gives you independent access to the permanent collection, without a group schedule to follow.

Both tickets sell out fast in peak season, so booking together locks in your slot at each site well in advance.

Plan these across separate days given the distance between the two, one for ancient Rome, one for Renaissance art.

Entry to the Colosseum

Access to the Roman Forum & Palatine Hill

Access to the 1st and 2nd Floor of the Colosseum

Escorted entry to the Borghese Gallery

Booking and handling fees

Guide accompanying you on the tour

Access to Colosseum's 4th and 5th Floor or the Underground

Audioguide (purchasable on-site at the Borghese Gallery for 5 Euros)

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

It was a sweltering day when I visited this museum, but the interior was cool and comfortable, allowing me to fully enjoy the many masterpieces on display.

This is an amazing experience. That being said it is much different than 20 years ago with the amount of security and how you have to pay to see everything. We were provided with the app to listen to the guided tour. We didn't use it. It was a bit chaotic trying to find the meeting point and we rushed and there was no need too. Again if you don't care for the commentary I'd just wait and book directly through colosseum. The security lines were short.

Move between two very different eras of Rome, imperial ruins and private art collecting, each visited independently at your own pace.

Getting started

Arrive at each venue with your mobile ticket and a valid photo ID ready. Both tickets are tied to a reserved time slot, so have your ticket validated at the entrance. Standard security checks apply at both sites.

Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill

What to expect

Enter the arena at your reserved time, then move through the Roman Forum's ruins and up to Palatine Hill, all at your own pace.

Features

Timed entry keeps your visit anchored to a fixed window, without a guide to follow.

Explore the Colosseum's tiers and museum independently.

Walk through the Forum's temples and public spaces, then climb Palatine Hill for city views.

Borghese Gallery

What to expect

Step into Villa Borghese for your timed slot at the gallery, where centuries of sculpture and painting await inside a former cardinal's private residence.

Features

Timed-slot entry keeps your visit anchored to a fixed window, without a group pace to follow.

Explore the permanent collection independently, spending as long as you like in each room.

Move between ground-floor sculpture and first-floor paintings at your own rhythm.
