Admission Included

Colosseum

The Colosseum, originally known as Amphitheatrum Flavium or simply as Amphitheatrum, is the largest amphitheater in the world, located in the city center of Rome.

It was the area where the public and religious life of ancient Rome took place. With the fall of the Empire, the Roman Forum fell into oblivion and was buried little by little.

Excellent guided tour. Our tour guide Alessandra led us through these amazing sites while providing precious explanations. She was ready to answer any questions and always cared about the group's needs for water, toilet, etc. (it was a very hot day). I definitely recommend this tour for a very enjoyable experience.

Maria was an excellent guide she really explained everything with details we were so happy we didn't even feel the 3 hours that we spent together. Thank you very much 🙏

The tour covered all of the historical highlights and was the perfect length of time . The only negative was that our guide, while very pleasant and engaging, had such a heavy accent that some of what was spoken was not understandable and the depth of knowledge of the subject was not very deep.

The trip was not booked by the office. they will not refund us the money. Tried to compensate with tickets we did not want or use. Don't book with Gray line I love Rome tours.

2nd time to the Colosseum and fully enjoyed it.. Highly recomend going with a guide who has the experience and knowledge to make you aware of the history. Our guide Tani was informative and colorful and helped me visualize the history I was walking through. I hope to come back with my children again some day to have them experience it too.

Amazing tour with so much information and history provided to help you understand and visualise the living and social activities from that era.

I can’t say enough good things about the Colosseum itself and surrounding structures. It was mind blowing. I hate to write a negative review but unfortunately our tour guide made it a painful experience for my family. She would made us stand in the first spot away from crowds and structures and gave us a 30-35minute lecture in the structures. Same happened later, we were made to stand for 20minutes in certain spots kind of forced to listen to her then she would hurry through all the places. I thought it was a tour not classroom lecture. Tour to me means getting knowledge, some free time for pictures, and walking at a comfortable pace. Extremely poor time management.
