Skip the line! - We booked an audio guided tour. We were met by a person from the company who handled the booking. He was kind and very helpful explaining where to enter. The coliseum is always crowded and a bit daunting to navigate. I was glad that we chose to visit this way.

Perfect for families with kids - This self guided tour is perfect for a family with kids. We loved being able to set our own pace. We met our tour “guide” prior to entering the colosseum. This guide gave instructions on the recommended route for the colosseum and forum as well as a downloadable audio insights into what we were visiting.

Great day - Tour guide met us at the meeting point. He gave us clear instructions and said if we have any questions we can come back to him. The tour is at your own pace with your guide waiting for you outside. The free app is very informative and improves the experience. After we finished at the Colosseum we were advised to meet the guide to move on to the next stage of the tour. He was very helpful and showed us which way we needed to go to see the Roman Forum. This purchase allow for you not having to queue for tickets and get some guidance. We had a fantastic day and Sak made sure that we did
