Who We Are
Who's behind Colosseum Underground Tour, how we choose what to recommend, and why we're upfront about not being the official ticketing site.
About Colosseum Underground Tour
Colosseum Underground Tour is an independent website dedicated to helping travelers plan a better visit to the Colosseum's underground hypogeum in Rome. We provide practical information about tickets, guided tours, entrances, opening times, and visit planning, with the goal of making your Colosseum experience easier from start to finish.
Our Approach
We focus on clear, useful, and up-to-date information. Important visitor details — prices, time slots, what each tour includes — are reviewed against official and reliable sources, while our guides give practical recommendations to help you choose the option that best suits your visit. We believe travelers should understand what they're booking, what to expect, and how to prepare before arriving at the Colosseum.
Independent & Transparent
Colosseum Underground Tour is an independent visitor-information and booking guide. We are not the official Colosseum website and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by Parco Archeologico del Colosseo, CoopCulture, or any official ticketing authority. Where booking options are available, tours or tickets may be provided through third-party travel partners, and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. We aim to clearly explain what's included so you can make an informed choice.
What We Cover
This site focuses specifically on the Colosseum's underground hypogeum and arena floor: what each tour type includes, how underground tickets compare to standard entry and combo options with the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, current prices and time slots, and practical planning details like opening hours, entrances, and what to expect on the day. If a detail on this site looks outdated, we'd rather you know than find out at the gate — see "Questions or Corrections" below.
Questions or Corrections?
Prices, time slots, and booking availability for the Colosseum change more often than most sites let on. If something here looks out of date, incorrect, or you just have a question before booking, reach out through our contact page and we'll get back to you. Keeping this information accurate is the whole point of the site.
