About this activity

If you are planning to visit the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum on your own, but would still like to skip the long lines, why not take advantage of this no wait entrance tickets service to the Vatican Museums and Colosseum with special Arena escorted entrance?

So how does no wait Vatican tickets work?

When you book your tickets, you’ll be provided with a voucher. This voucher doesn’t constitute a ticket and you won’t be able to enter the Vatican Museums with this voucher alone. Instead, your representative, who you’ll meet at a meeting point near the Vatican Museums, will escort you inside, helping you skip the line and exchanging your voucher for an actual ticket. Once past security, your representative will provide you with a City Wonders map to help you find your way around the Museum and navigate the works of the Sistine Chapel. And as simple as that, you are now free to explore the Vatican Museums on your own!

For your access to the Colosseum, your representative will escort you inside, helping you skip the line and exchange your voucher for an actual ticket. You’ll be able to experience the immensity of ancient Rome's most iconic symbol at your own pace, enjoying privileged direct access to the Arena Floor through the recently opened 'Gladiator’s Entrance', without the lines and long security checks.

Feel the glory and majesty of Rome at the height of its power as you walk on the very same stones as those who came to fight here in gladiatorial combat, treading in their footsteps out onto a partial reconstruction of the arena floor, looking up at the tiered ruins that were once filled with some 50,000-80,000 bloodthirsty spectators.

You will be sure to hear their echoes as your eyes are drawn upward, your body turns and your mind is boggled by the elegance and engineering prowess of what was once the largest structure of its kind in the world, all from this unique 360° view, home to the gladiatorial games, exotic staged hunts, theatrical executions and even mock sea-battles.

Enjoy up-close views of the underground area where the spectacle was brought to life, and the panorama from where the Emperor’s box once stood, all special access areas that standard ticket holders don’t get to see. In addition, you’ll gain access to the second floor, tracing the Colosseum’s circumference in an effort to understand what it must have been like when the stands were packed, the crowds were roaring and a gladiator’s destiny hung on their whims.

After the tour you’ll also have the option of staying inside the Colosseum to continue your exploration or follow our representative to take advantage of the skip-the-line access to the Roman Forum. You’ll also be able to hike to the top of the Palatine Hill for an exceptional bird’s-eye perspective over the Forum and Circus Maximus.
