Overview

Guidekin summary

A self guided entry rather than a tour: timed Colosseum tickets with an audio guide app, Forum and Palatine access for a full day, and the option to add a short professional photoshoot with edited photos afterwards. It costs €93 per person, no live guide is included. Arena, underground and upper levels are not part of it.

From the guide

Step onto the Colosseum Arena Floor — where gladiators once fought — and explore Rome's
greatest monument at your own pace with an audio guide in 8 languages. Includes Roman
Forum and Palatine Hill with 24-hour access. Optional upgrade: add a 30-minute
professional photoshoot and receive 20 edited photos within 48 hours.
