Overview

Enjoy a private 1-hour guided tour of the Colosseum with an expert guide. When booking, choose between two different Colosseum access options:

REGULAR LEVELS
Choose this option to explore the Colosseum’s Regular Levels with your private guide. Walk through the main visitor levels, take in views over the Arena Floor, and look down into the Underground from above. Arena Floor and Underground access are NOT included.

ARENA FLOOR
Choose this option to step directly onto the Arena Floor through the Gladiator’s Gate using dedicated backdoor access. Get a gladiator’s-eye view of the Colosseum and stand where the spectacles once took place. Access to the Regular Levels and Underground is NOT included.

With both options, your ticket also includes unguided entry to the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, which you can visit independently after your guided Colosseum tour.
