Discover the Colosseum in the serenity of night with a guided tour. Enjoy access to the main areas of the structure, as well as exclusive access to the underground dungeons and arena floor under the moonlight, where fierce gladiator battles once took place. Upon arrival at the Colosseum in the evening, meet your guide who will escort you on your exclusive journey. Away from the usual crowds of the day, enjoy the opportunity to admire the Colosseum in a more intimate and engaging way, as you first discover the grandstands. Then, you will enter one of the restrictive areas of the monument, the underground. Discover a network of tunnels where lions, tigers, and other fearsome animals were kept. See the remnants of cages, wooden elevators, and gladiator rooms where combatants awaited their frightful fate in the arena. Head up to the arena floor through the archway named "The Gate of Death." Hear thrilling stories from your guide under the moonlight.

There is something magical about out being in the Colosseum at night when very few other people are there. You get to see more without being pushed around by all of the crowds of people; you get to enjoy the cooler night air; you get to enjoy the knowledge of your tour guide. It was 100% a worthwhile experience.

Cool tour!!! It was really hot in the basement. Lots of people on the tour as well which made it somewhat hard to see everything . Really cool overall and our guide did an awesome job!
