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.

It's a pity that due to personal reasons we were unable to come to Rome to visit the Borghese Gallery. Since we paid for the entrance tickets, I am asking if I can get a discount for a new visit in October/November 2026. Looking forward to your reply, thank you. Gianni Zecchini and Domiziana Duchi

If you go to Rome, be sure to book a tour of the Borghese Gallery—it's the most beautiful art museum. Headout is always top-notch—we were greeted by a host who explained everything to us.

This is clearly the piece de resistance of any visit to Rome. The preservation is impressive and the atmosphere is second-to-none. The issue was with the audioguide (yet again). There were two of us, but only one access to the audioguide so we tried to have an 'ear' of the headphones each but eventually gave up as it impeded our enjoyment. Also, I had amessage saying I needed to meet someone to exchange my online ticket for a paper one. We followed the directions and ended up on a street corner with nothing and nobody. We went to a tourist information ( a good 15 minute walk in 30 degrees celcius heat) to be informed our tickets were downloadable from the Headout app. This was very confusing (especially for a 49 year old like me!!). Please make things a little clearer regarding this.

I went on my own as my husband is more interested in climbing hills than in art. A very beautiful gallery, although be prepared to walk through a park and need your Google Maps to get to the right place. The park is actually wonderful (at least on a Sunday when I was there). I had problems with the audioguide (yet again) as I apparently entered through the wrong door (although it was the only one to my knowledge) so it didn't know where I was. Luckily, I could eavesdrop some guides so I did get some information, but that's not ideal. The artworks are absolutely amazing, and I cried when I saw my first Carravaggio painting. You can wander around on your own for as long as your ticket allows. There are stairs, and if, like me, your mobility is limited, prepare yourself.

We met up with a very friendly guide. It wasn't easy to find because they weren't identified as Headout but rather 'ITALIA Something', but after asking around, it was fine and we were in the right place. The tour and the entrances were easy enough to find, by asking again, of course. The audio guide, well, wasn't great at all. We would have liked an audio guide that explained what we were seeing at specific spots, not just a random, jumbled history of the Colosseum! For the price, I don't think the service is really there!

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

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!!

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.

What to bring

Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill

Carry a valid photo ID matching the name on your booking; it may be requested at entry.

Accessibility
