Step by Step

Visit the Colosseum in Rome with these tickets for a specific date and time. Gain direct access to one of the largest amphitheatres ever built. Once inside, you can explore the site at your own pace and discover the fascinating history surrounding this ancient venue for gladiatorial battles and public spectacles.

You’ll also have access to a downloadable audio guide that will recount the most interesting details about the Colosseum, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in Rome’s past. You’ll learn about the building’s architecture, its historical significance and the various functions it served.

The experience also includes the opportunity to explore the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill on your own, two equally impressive sites steeped in history.

These two sites have separate entry points, so you can choose whether to visit them before or after your visit to the Colosseum, provided it is on the same calendar day.
