About this activity
Why Book Colosseum Tour with Us?
Like in the ancient Rome, curious crowds in pursuit of entertainment gather in front of the Colosseum every day. Luckily, the kind of entertainment they are after changed considerably over the course of history. While it started as a place of cruel spectacles and violence, today, the Colosseum is a place of history, knowledge, and storytelling.
However, being popular makes getting inside to the Colosseum a tedious process. Booking Colosseum guided tour with us guarantees you a skip the line entry and, consequently, saves you a great deal of time and nerves.
You also will receive an in-depth account of the history and legends hiding behind the walls of this epic arena. Our expert tour guide will ensure you don’t miss a thing. As if that wasn’t enough, the Colosseum tour tickets include entry to the Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum which are part of the same archeological site but have different entrances.
Don’t worry to book in advance. In case your travel itinerary changes, we offer a full refund if you let us know about your change of plans at least one day before.
Interesting Facts about Colosseum
Sitting east of the Palatine Hill and Roman Forum, the Colosseum forms the heart of Rome. Even in ruin, the amphitheater appears enormous. It was commissioned around 70 AD by a Roman Emperor Vespasian of the Flavian family. Hence, the Colosseum original name was the Flavian Amphitheatre. Vespasian built it to keep the masses happy and entertained as well as terrified.
For centuries, Roman emperors used it to host all kinds of “fun” games such as gladiator battles and exotic animal fights. However, after around 400 years, the fame and popularity of the games faded and a strong earthquake gave the structure a final blow. The rubble of the fallen wall was used as building material for new projects in Rome.
Despite its harsh fate, Colosseum manages to impress us until today… If you are eager to find out more and see the place of gladiator battles yourself, book our Colosseum Tour today!
