Explore the world's most famous amphitheater with an official guide and journey back to the days of the Roman Empire at the monumental Colosseum.
Get access to areas not available to regular ticket holders, including the underground level where the wild animals were kept before they released onto the arena and where gladiators waited for their turn to fight.
Learn about the innovative techniques the engineers used to build the monument and hear how it has survived for hundreds of years. Be amazed as history is brought to life as you discuss the political and social reasons for the games and events.
You will also see some reconstructions of the machinery the Romans used to lift the wild animals or to create the "special effects" for the games.
The ticket includes admission to the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. Please note this won't be a guided tour but simple admission.
Schedule changes are always possible so please check your email regularly for eventual timetable updates.
