Brilliantly organised

As one of the busiest places in Rome, organisation was key.

You were not allowed in before your ticket time, but once you got in the queue for it, it moved swiftly.

We visited on an incredibly hot day, so found the shaded areas whilst walking around.

The history of the place was incredible - a must visit in Rome.

Like everything in Rome you have to pay

It is an amazing site definitely worth going. The only issue is the amount of people who bug you for tickets and won’t leave you alone and the ln there’s the price like everything in Rome you have to pay and it’s not cheap for a good visit to the colosseum your going to pay nearly €100 for a couple.
