The Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill form a magnificent, jaw-dropping archaeological triple-threat that proves ancient Romans knew how to build things meant to last, even if they completely lacked safety regulations. Walking up to the Colosseum is like standing next to a mountain built by people who hated empty space. At nearly 2,000 years old, this massive stone oval still hums with the chaotic energy of 60,000 screaming Romans watching gladiators question their career choices. Sure, the concrete work is brilliant, but the customer service back in 80 AD left a lot to be desired. Today, you don't have to dodge lions, but you do have to dodge selfie sticks. Pro tip: look down into the underground hypogeum and appreciate that the backstage area of antiquity featured caged leopards instead of a bowl of green M&Ms. If you love piles of broken marble that used to be government corruption hubs, the Roman Forum is your paradise. Without a guide, it looks like a very expensive stone-quarry disaster. With a guide, it transforms into the bustling, cutthroat center of the ancient world where Julius Caesar once strutted around and senators argued loudly before backstabbing each other. Walk the ancient Via Sacra and try to imagine the toga-clad chaos, debt panics, and grand processions. Just watch your step—tripping over a 2,000-year-old curb is a poor way to recreate the Fall of Rome. Perched right above the noise, Palatine Hill is the mythical birthplace of Rome and the ultimate ancient real estate flex. Emperors built their sprawling palaces here simply because the view of the Circus Maximus and the Roman Forum beat looking at literally anything else. It is noticeably quieter than the Colosseum mosh pit, making it the ideal spot to wander past ruined imperial living rooms and pretend you are deciding whether to banish a province or just grab an espresso.

We had a great experience! The person waiting for us at the meeting point was really super nice; he gave us very useful tips to save time, and also for restaurants and things to visit in the city. As an added bonus, he spoke French!! The Colosseum is an absolutely magnificent monument steeped in history! Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum are open-air museums! A very good experience, easy access and quick entry (at least at 8:30 AM!).

We got into the Vatican so quickly and completely bypassed all lines which were veryyyyy long. Our guide got us in so fast and we even got to do the garden tour. I love that we got to split up our tickets for the coliseum and palatine hill because we were pretty beat after a long day at the Vatican. Loved the flexibility and ease of use for tickets. Will be using them again in the future!

Initially, I was doubtful about buying the ticket through Headout since it is not an official cultural heritage site, but I had to change my mind because we managed to enter at the scheduled time without any problems. Above all, we were thrilled with the audio guide, which guided us step-by-step through our visit to the Colosseum. Using Headout is highly recommended.

The Colosseum is a must-see if you’re visiting Rome; the audio guides, which are always included with every Headout ticket, are very helpful. Headout is very efficient—it sends messages to remind you where to go on the day of your reservation and what steps to take to enter the site. If you’re visiting the Imperial Forums during the hot summer months, a parasol is highly recommended.

Everything was easy to find - of course, you get excited at such a monument :) The audio guide was too exhausting... there are too many numbers everywhere. You can listen to it beforehand. It's especially good in the Colosseum. That way, you look more closely and aren't distracted by the tour guides with their flags.

See eight Roman landmarks, from the Colosseum to the Pantheon, with a 1-day hop-on hop-off pass, buses every 20 minutes, and a multilingual guide.

Make your second pick count with a Colosseum combo, including Palatine Hill and Forum access, plus a multilingual offline audio guide packed with history.

With Pantheon as your third option, you can skip the lines to see its legendary dome, intricate marble, and timeless architecture from the days of Agrippa.

For your fourth pick, dive into Castel Sant’Angelo, a towering 2nd-century fortress filled with history, art, and relics, with a multilingual audio guide.

It's a user-friendly platform. We booked tickets to the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona and to the Roman Colosseum in Rome, and both experiences were great and the prices were affordable.

I got a ticket through this page at a good price. The visit to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill on our own was incredible, with audio downloaded from the website.

Why settle for one when you can have more? Combine a Big Bus tour with your pick from three must-see attractions – Colosseum, Pantheon & Castel Sant’Angelo – for a Rome adventure tailored just for you.

Rome HOHO

Ride through Rome’s historic heart on the Red Route, stopping at icons like the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, and Circo Massimo. Soak in 360-degree views from the double-decker bus as you cruise past ancient ruins, lively piazzas, and Baroque masterpieces, with an entertaining multilingual audio guide keeping you company.

Please click here for a detailed route map and its boarding points.

You can join the tour at any stop and hop on and off for the duration of your ticket.

Colosseum, Palatine Hill & Roman Forum

Hop off at stop #3 and head to the Colosseum, where gladiators once battled for glory in the grandest arena of ancient Rome. Your ticket also includes Palatine Hill, the legendary birthplace of Rome, and the Roman Forum, where temples, arches, and political ruins tell stories of a bygone empire – all offering a fascinating walk through history.

Pantheon

The Pantheon, once a temple for all gods, now stands as a masterpiece of ancient engineering and Renaissance influence. Just a little off stop #5 on the Red route, you’ll find the Pantheon, standing tall with an enormous dome with an opening at its peak known as the oculus, that covers the marble work of this Roman temple-turned-Catholic church in natural light. Inside, find sunken panels, royal tombs, and Raphael’s resting place, all steeped in centuries of history.

Castel Sant’Angelo

Take the Red route on the bus tour and hop off at stop #6 to visit Castel Sant’Angelo. Built as Emperor Hadrian’s tomb, the landmark later became a fortress, papal hideout, and now a museum. Wander its five floors, from eerie prison cells to opulent papal rooms, and explore its vast collection of ancient weaponry. End your visit on the rooftop terrace with breathtaking panoramic views of Rome.
