Rome: Colosseum Undergrounds & Arena Tour with Roman Forum & Palatine Hill

La visita a los subterráneos del Coliseo es algo que dejamos pendiente la última vez que estuvimos en Roma y que teníamos muchas ganas de ver. Ha sido magnífico poder hacerlo y meternos de lleno en cómo funcionaba en su día, cuando los gladiadores se preparaban allí. La guía Elida nos contó muchos datos curiosos y muy interesantes de la época, de la vida de los gladiadores, del Coliseo y su historia y de la antigua Roma en general. 100% recomendable.

Extremely disappointing. The tour did not deliver on 2 of the 4 elements booked and paid for. We did not get to see the views and palaces on Palatine Hill , we did not get to collosseum underground. It is advertised with a very in depth description of what to expect to see at Palatine Hill and the amazing views and at the Collosseum underground . The company representative on the day said they do not ever do the underground tour. The headsets and guide were inaudible, there was no photo stop opportunities and no information given on Collosseum. Very overpriced -Not worth the money charged. The company did not respond to email, were very uninterested on the phone when I eventually got through. Only received a small token gesture refund after complaining. Would not recommend.

If you do one thing in Rome, make it the underground tour of the colosseum. Our guide Mircea was incredible at making it all come to life and helping us to see what it was like to be everyone from a captive to a gladiator, spectator to the Emperor. Our group of adults and 13 year olds all came away feeling as if we had learned lots and with plenty to talk about.

This was one of the worst trips we’ve booked. The meeting location was wrong, our guide was late, he stopped to “check the bathrooms” but left his mic on and ordered a coffee not even 5 mins into the tour. Then to top it off, we booked the underground tour and he dropped us at the front door and told us to follow the crowd to find our way. There were thousands of people and the colosseum workers had to tell us where to go. The only reason I’m giving this a 2 instead of 1 is because he seemed to be very knowledgeable on the Roman Forum in the first part of our tour.

Mega gut! Klare Empfehlung!! Der Besuch des Untergrunds war mega faszinierend. Keine Massen. Man lernt viel über das tatsächlich Colosseums-geschehen mit Tieren, Gladiatoren, … . Tour-Guide im Untergrund sehr gut! Tour-guide Giulio (?) der durchs restliche Colosseum, Palatin und Forum romanum gemacht hat, hat uns mit viel Motivation und Leidenschaft das damalige Leben näher gebracht, die Geschichte zum Leben erweckt und sich wirklich Zeit genommen!!! Top!
