A guided tour through the most iconic Roman monument in the fascinating night atmosphere after the regular opening hours when the crowds are gone.

You will meet your tour Coordinator outside the Colosseum metro station just across the street from the monument. After a brief introduction, our friendly guide will accompany you to the skip-the-line entrance, for fast lane access.

Once inside, begin your tour below ground and explore the Colosseum’s tunnels, chambers and pits. This section of the Colosseum is restricted to the public and only allows a limited number of visitors each day, so enjoy this exclusive chance to see more than most people do.

Admire the lifts that brought to life Rome’s hunting games. Next you will have access to the reconstructed portion of the arena floor to hear the stories of the bloody gladiatorial battles.
You'll stand in the very same spot where the games took place. This is a unique experience reserved to a restricted number of visitors. Don't miss it !

Seeing the Coliseum at night was a great choice, our guide was great, knowledgeable & very comprehensive. Unfortunately we had lots of young children on our time slot, which meant a lot of the information couldn’t be heard. (not a complaint as the organisers cannot police parenting) My only suggestion is that there is a strong mention of the VR set experience before entering the colosseum. I along with most of the post 20 year olds felt very disoriented & nauseous for a good portion of the tour!
Still well worth the night visit!

Our guide was very friendly, spoke English very well and the entire tour was absolutely incredible!! Seeing it at night was magical and eerie at the same time. Definately one of the highlights of our trip to Italy.

Easy to find meeting point. Tour started with a VR experience near the Colosseum. I recommend you sit down. It was really cool but ended abruptly and we wish it showed more of the actual Colosseum and gladiator involvement. Inside was amazing. I have toured the Col multiple times but never without all the tourist (nor at night and underground). It was GREAT! We had the whole place to ourselves. The guide was interesting and clear and shared really cool information. Apparently we were running late, so some moments felt really rushed. For example, it would have been nice to spend a few more minutes taking pictures on the arena. Would have been nice to get a look from the top too (at night). Worth the high price IMO and I definitely recommend.

I’m not sure I would have paid $10 for this tour, much less the 10x amount that we did. I may ask for our money back. The tour was rushed, hard to hear because multiple earphone units didn’t work and we were told too bad, move along, so we were trying to share and keep up with the high speed pace. There was a video segment that was impossible to see because the tour was too crowded so only 10 or so people fit in the viewing area. We couldn’t hear, couldn’t see, and suddenly were ushered to the exit so the tour guide could move on to her next group. Biggest scam we’ve encountered in Rome. Very unfortunate. Do not use this operator.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable, and was a true leader. During an incident, she was calm and continued to move the tour forward. Great job.

We did the night tour and it was incredible, the way the tour unfolds is surprising and we learned a lot about the history of the Colosseum.

Enjoyed the tour and found it very informative. Did it with a teenager who loved it. Perfect amount of time and very cool to do it at night!

Colosseum is beautiful at night because the lighting is dramatic, underground tour fascinating, virtual reality head set was fun, tour guide was great, and no crowds!
