Overview

Enjoy special access to the restricted, usually off-limits Arena Floor as part of this experience. Afterwards, continue your journey through ancient Rome at the nearby Roman Forum and Palatine Hill.

Lisa_R, Jun 2026

It is important to know first what you will be seeing. There are so many different inclusion options. It would have also helped to learn some of the history before we were walking through them. Radios were not included so it was very difficult to gather around to hear the guide because of the crowds and the heat.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

We are truly sorry that the tour did not meet your expectations. Regarding the headsets, the Colosseum only requires them for groups of more than 8 participants. We also provided an upgraded experience by purchasing Full Experience tickets, which allowed you to access and visit the Arena Floor. This is an area that is not normally included in the standard tour and comes at a higher cost.
