The ruins of the Coliseum are stunning, but you have to know that it is a crowded site and there are a few queues at the entry, at the toilette, at the gift shop. The steps are extremely high which c… Full review by Susana C

I would disagree...there aren't that many different tours. Perhaps you are commenting on the number of different third party tour operators. Be aware that if you book through a third party (and not through the official ticketing website), your reservation is NOT guaranteed. You could make a reservation right now for next summer with a third party and they may send a cancellation email days before your trip to Rome. If you want to avoid that situation, wait for the ticket / tour release and book through the official website. One downside of booking through the official website is that they currently do not offer a tour which covers all 3 attractions - the Colosseum, RF and PH. If you want your tour to include the RF and PH, you will need to book through a third party.

Q:
We are looking for an in-depth (live, not audio) guided tour of the Colosseum including Belvedere terrace, imperial balcony, arena floor, and underground. I can’t figure out if each area is a separate ticket or not. I found shore excursions from Civitavecchia that visit different parts of the colosseum like seating area and terraces, or the arena floor and gladiators gate, or underground, ranging 85€ - 150€, lasting 7 hours. All include palatine hill and the forum. We’re not interested in the other sites in the area, as we visited them on a prior visit. We just want to spend a few hours exploring the colosseum. I appreciate any guidance or recommendations you can give in figuring this out.

A:
No ticket will allow you to visit all areas of the Colosseum. The general admission ticket allows you to visit Level 1 and Level 2. There are various Full Experience tickets - the Attic (Levels 3, 4 and 5), the Underground (Level 0) and the Arena Floor. Those tickets allow you to visit one of those areas (the area named on the ticket) plus the general admission areas.
