VIP Colosseum Tours

Descend into the Hypogeum, the ancient network of tunnels and chambers beneath the arena floor. These are the original Roman construction tunnels, complete with the mechanical systems used to lift fighters and animals up to arena level. This is where the spectacle was staged before it ever reached the crowd. A mandatory guided tour ensures you have expert context throughout.

Step onto the reconstructed arena floor and see the Colosseum from the gladiator's perspective, surrounded by thousands of spectator seats rising above you. Entry is through the Gladiator's Gate, the same route fighters took before combat. Combined with a VIP guide, this is one of the most memorable experiences the Colosseum offers.

Access the restricted 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors of the Colosseum via a panoramic elevator, with 360-degree views of the arena and Rome beyond. Groups are capped at a maximum of seven people. This is one of the hardest Colosseum experiences to book and sells out well in advance. Contact Us to plan your tailored tour of the Colossuem.
