Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill - Skip-the-Line

Rome 3 hours Up to 204.8(45,000 reviews)

The Colosseum is the most recognisable building in the world - and seeing it in person is a genuinely spine-tingling experience. Built in 70 AD, it held 80,000 spectators for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles. This guided tour skips the multi-hour queues and takes you inside, then across to the Roman Forum - the heart of the ancient empire - and up Palatine Hill for views over it all.

Standing inside the Colosseum was one of the most powerful moments of my life. The guide's knowledge of the gladiators and the history was extraordinary.

Absolutely the best way to see the Colosseum. The queues without a guide were 3 hours. We walked straight in.
