My visit to the Colosseum was one of the highlights of my time in Rome. I visited the Colosseum, Mamertine Prison, the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, and each place gave me a different perspective on the history of ancient Rome. Walking through the Forum and Palatine Hill was especially fascinating, as I could see the remains of a city that once stood at the center of the Roman world. Mamertine Prison was another particularly memorable stop, with its atmosphere and centuries of history. The crowds around the Colosseum were expected, but they didn’t take away from the experience. Exploring these iconic places at my own pace made the day feel personal, immersive and unforgettable.

The Colosseum was beautiful, its the start of October so it was very crowded, however this did not take away from the experience. The staff at the Colosseum was wonderful and helpful, the process for getting tickets was quick and easy, but make sure you get there a bit earlier. You should add this to your bucket list if it isn't on there already!

Thanks to our special tickets, we were able to enter the Colosseum quickly, but it was unbearably crowded and annoying. Too many people and too many groups. People constantly stopped right in front of you to take a photo. Still, the historical impression was wonderful. Highly recommended.

The explanations were clear, and the tickets worked as indicated. The only downside would be that the pick-up point is a museum that is difficult to access, and there are usually a lot of people waiting to redeem their experiences.

The visit to Castel Sant'Angelo was a journey back in time. With the exhibitions inside, it was a journey through different cultures, from a cannonball to a frescoed ceiling, from a towering Angel to a prison to atone for real or alleged guilt... A magical experience to visit among the thousand stories of an infinite Rome.

What I liked most about the Colosseum in Rome was the excellent organization and the opportunity to experience such an important part of history. I was impressed by its incredible architecture and the stories of ancient Rome and the gladiators. It was a truly fascinating and memorable experience.
