Full description
Take a private guided tour of the Colosseum with skip–the–line tickets, and use a different privileged entrance to get inside.
Step into the reconstructed arena floor through the so–called Death Gate, and feel as though you have stepped back in time to an authentic gladiator experience. Imagine the roar of the crowds as combatants poised themselves to battle on the Colosseum floor, or when politicians and theater groups took center stage. The colosseum could hold more than 50,000 people, rivaling the size of today's modern football stadiums.
Get to know more from the words and the knowledge of your expert private guide, and don't hesitate to ask them questions and clarifications.
