Arena ticket, guide and headsets are included at €189 per person. The regular levels and the upper tiers are not part of the arena ticket, and the meeting point is half an hour before the start. ## Overview Enjoy a 3-hour guided tour of the Colosseum's Arena Floor and Roman Forum and Palatine Hill with your expert guide. Enter through the Gladiator's Gate, step onto the Arena Floor itself, and see the amphitheatre from the gladiator's perspective. Choose between the following two group options: SMALL-GROUP TOUR | MAX. 7 GUESTS Choose this option for a more personal, semi-private experience in a small group of maximum 7 guests. With fewer people, it's easier to stay close to your guide, hear the explanations clearly, and ask questions along the way. PRIVATE TOUR Choose this option for the same 3-hour guided experience exclusively with your own private guide, with more flexibility and more opportunities to interact with your guide throughout the tour. With both options, Colosseum access includes the Arena Floor only. Access to the Regular Levels, Underground, and Upper Levels of the Colosseum is NOT included. ## Key facts - Price: from €189 per person - Duration: 3h - Rating: 4.78/5 from 148 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Operator: TOURIKS ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | English / Small Group of Max 7 | €189 / person | English | Arena Floor + Forum : This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | Portuguese / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | Portuguese | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | Spanish / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | Spanish | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | German / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | German | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | French / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | French | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | English / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | English | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | | Italian / Private Guide | €369 / person (for 2+ people) | Italian | Arena Floor + Forum: This includes a 1h guided visit of the Arena Floor (No Regular Levels & No Underground) + 1.5h guided tour to the Roman Forum Duration: 3 hours | ## What's included - Guided tour of the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill - Live expert guide & headsets to hear your guide clearly - Colosseum entry to the Arena Floor (€24) ## Not included - Access to the Regular Levels, Underground, or Upper Levels (3rd and 4th tiers) is NOT included. ## Itinerary 1. **Colosseum** (1h; admission included) - Enter the Colosseum through the Gladiator's Gate and step directly onto the Arena Floor, where gladiators once fought and ancient spectacles unfolded before thousands of spectators.
