Easy to access and very good, although the audio guide didn't match what we were seeing, but it's definitely worth it.

Colosseum, Forum, and Palatine Hill

You'll begin your visit at number 16 Piazza d'Aracoeli, located next to the central Piazza Venezia. There, you'll show your booking confirmation, and we'll provide you with useful information about the main points of interest in the Italian capital. Welcome to Rome!

Before immersing yourself in Ancient Rome, you'll watch an immersive multimedia video that recreates Ancient Rome through animations and historical reconstructions. Ideal for contextualizing what you'll see next!

Afterwards, an assistant will accompany you to the entrance of the Roman Forum to ensure smooth access. There, your self-guided tour of the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill will begin, where you'll walk among temples, roads, and the remains of imperial palaces, while also enjoying unique panoramic views of the city.

After approximately 2 hours exploring the archaeological site, it'll be time to enter the Colosseum. With this ticket, you can enter the most famous amphitheater in the world and see up close the place where gladiator fights and other spectacles of the imperial era once took place. A true journey back in time!
