About this tour
Enter the Colosseum at your allotted time and imagine the roar of a crowd gathered for gladiator contests. With a licensed local guide, explore the arena and hear how emperors Vespasian and Titus shaped this landmark, begun in 72 AD and completed in 80 AD.
The Colosseum once held up to 73,000 spectators across four levels. As you stand within its elliptical structure, picture the dramatic encounters between people and beasts that made the amphitheater famous. Your ticket and reservation fee are included, so you can focus on the stories and scale of the site.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
