5.00The guide was a little difficult to find but didn’t end up being necessary. He just told us which way to go in. You have to download the audio guide ahead of time, but it appears that the audio guys just the official Colosseum audio guide anyway. I recommend the Rick Steves audio tours.
Wonderful experience

5.00We had no issues gaining entry with this service and found it a perfect way to enjoy the Colosseum. Guides are great to give you lots of information, but if you want to explore at your own speed and just take in the surroundings, then this is perfect. The Colosseum is well organised and clear in the direction to make your way around in 2.5 hours I would suggest you plan your day around spending a good amount of time at Rome Forum and Palantine hill. Firstly I understand you don't need to enter across from the Colosseum, there are other entries where the line is not as long. Secondly these sites are huge and in the heat of the day, can be a challenge for the family. I would suggest expecting 2 more hours here, and either eat between entering the forum or bring food. It was an amazing experience walking through the old cellars and along the temples.
If you want to lose the will to live and put your blood pressure to stratospheric heights this is the app for you!

1.00Audio guide didn't work. One of our party only had the relevant download if she switched to Ukrainian. App was glitchy, couldn't see the download points. Screen froze. Rep tried to help, but was useless. Kept saying that it worked outside the Colloseum (which it did) Email on website didn't work. Really very poor.
