Explore Rome’s most popular attraction, one of the world’s seven wonders, with the Colosseum Skip the Line ticket. Get a fast-track priority entrance to the Colosseum and enjoy a self-guided tour with the included Audio Guide app.
With these Skip the Line Colosseum tickets, you can enjoy exclusive access to Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum and upgrade your ticket to access the Arena Floor. Meet your host or greeter who is fluent in English and receive assistance at the meeting point to ensure hassle-free access to the Colosseum.
The ticket includes an audio guide in English and German, which takes around three hours to complete. The guide provides all the information while you conveniently explore the attraction.
The Colosseum attracts over six million visitors annually and remains heavily crowded most days, so you must stand in line for at least 90 minutes to secure them at the gate. The Skip the Line ticket is the best way to secure your entry to the Colosseum on your desired date and time slot, which gets sold out pretty quickly, especially during peak season.
