Although the line was long, they were very efficient and moved quickly, they had fans with water misters to cool everybody down. Security was also super efficient. The overall experience of looking around and learning about the history was such a cool experience especially after the long travel from Australia! Would definitely recommend if your into historical sites and awesome Roman history.

The tickets were sent to us by email immediately after booking. We were able to enter the Colosseum on time for our booked time slot, and despite the large number of visitors, it didn't seem overcrowded. However, it was a little disappointing that there were no audio guides - although an additional €5 was charged for this. Too bad, because a ticket cost €26.90 in total

I loved the beautiful view from the castle terrace and the breakfast bar with a maritozzo and cream coffee, although the prices were a bit steep. I did not like having to download the audio guide: not having headphones, it was not at all convenient. In short, it was a good experience to visit the castle -- but once is enough.

    Goosebumps when You realize the piece of history related with Colosseum. I wonder if this walls could talk what we can hear... Unfortunately traffic is so horrible that You loose the appetite for detailed sightseeing. Anyway this is "backet list" If You're going to visit Rome.

    Wow! Incredible! Visiting Castel Sant'Angelo is an incredible experience! The ticket avoided the queue at the ticket office, we went straight to the entrance, read the QRCode on our cell phone and entered. In other words, everything was smooth, safe and perfect! We love it! I thank and recommend Headout!

  • 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.
