Colosseum and the Roman Forum: See the Greatness of Rome
The Colosseum itself was mind boggling, and incalculable wealth must have been required, the forum also. Only 4 stars as we couldn't get the audio for first time, and having gone quickly round.

Colosseum and the Roman Forum: See the Greatness of Rome
Lovely tour! Downloading the app was straightforward... Adding the relevant audio guide requires the purchase code ... The app works great , you have to scan waypoints to make the audio guide continue, if you can't find one you get the option to skip the scan process and the audio guide continues. Kids loved the interaction of the app , don't forget you need headphones.

Colosseum and the Roman Forum: See the Greatness of Rome
Visited with the family and these tours tickets were excellent as we had not planned ahead! The Colloseum is well worth it and everyone learned something.

Colosseum and the Roman Forum: See the Greatness of Rome
It was completely worth it to be able to skip the line and take the tour. I imagine it would have been a two hour wait to get in and have to join huge groups with one guide speaking, otherwise

FAQ

The pinnacle of Rome's Culture & History is encapsulated by tours of the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, Vatican Museums, including the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica, as well as paths through the ancient city center where the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain lie. Each of these experiences offers a deep dive into the rich tapestry of Rome's historical grandeur.
Beyond the historical excursions, Rome offers picturesque parks like Villa Borghese for relaxation, vibrant local markets, authentic Italian cooking classes, enchanting evening walks along the Tiber River, and the vibrant nightlife of Trastevere. To augment cultural visits, the city presents contemporary art galleries, fashion shopping experiences, and delectable food and wine tours.
Cultural and historical tours in Rome can vary widely in duration. Shorter, focused tours like those of specific landmarks typically last 1-2 hours.

Customized self-guided tours offer flexibility to explore at one's own pace, potentially stretching over several days to cover extensive ground.
