    Difficulty collecting ticket - look under “contact operator” NOT “get tickets”.
    Ken_S, Jan 2023
    Everything worked out ok in the end but as we booked through this site we had an issue with the tickets. The operator “sent” the tickets a couple of days ahead of the visit but because of the system they were hidden under “contact operator” rather than collect tickets, which just kept sending us a voucher saying we needed to collect tickets. Very frustrating and we nearly missed our visit because of it.

    David_B, Oct 2022
    A really interesting place to visit. Why do they put a word limit on reviews? Everyone knows what this is.

    Self-guided Colosseum.
    Patti_M, Oct 2022
    The self guided tour was good. Just be sure to get instructions about location to enter and start time. It was a little confusing but we figured it out with little trouble. We were able to purchase audio guide once we entered.

    Scam
    Wendy_S, Jun 2022
    I was promised that my “ticket/voucher” would be emailed to me 5-6 days before my visit. The company only emailed me a voucher, which was NOT the entrance ticket. I did not know the difference at the time, since the voucher had a scan bar. On the day of the visit, the company tried to call me, from an unknown number in India. I didn’t pick up since I did not recognize the number. When I got to the front of the Colesseum line, I was told that the voucher was not a ticket, and was denied entrance. I texted, emailed, and called the company; at that time, I was told that I should have picked up the call from India, and only then would they email me my actual ticket. How is one supposed to know this?!! After they took my money, they should have emailed me my ticket 5-6 days before hand as they promised. And then, when I got back to the front of the line, then the ticket agent pointed out that the timed entry was for specifically 3:30, an hour away! I did not select that time and nowhere on email confirmation did it state that 3:30 was my time. So I had to wait outside in 95 degree heat for an hour. Worst “skip the line” convenience ticket experience ever.

We provide the best available slot to our travelers after consulting with them. We will do our best to avoid this situation in the future. Thank you again for your review. Ciao!
    Rome at its best
    Gerrit_L, Jun 2022
    We could skip the long waiting line to get in. The app could be much better in communication. When ‘get tickets’ you get the voucher, not the real entry tickets.
    Response from Host, Jun 2022
    Dear Gerrit, Thank you very much for your feedback. We regret the inconvenience caused due to the miscommunication. We will do our best to avoid this situation in the future. We are glad you enjoyed your visit to the Colosseum. Thank you again for your review. We hope to see you again in Rome. Ciao!
    Download ur tickets before leaving your country
    Charles_R, May 2022
    The Coloseum was great once we finally got in. The provider, who was somewhere in India, sent our tickets to my whats app #. Bc we travelled from the USA we were using a Google fi # and our US what’s app didn’t work. So I couldn’t download my tickets. The Coloseum guard wouldn’t let me in bc the invoice didn’t show the necessary QR code. I had to call the provider in India. Thank God he answered the phone and was responsive to my need. Long story short is. Make sure you download your tickets (with ur QR code) to ur phone before you leave the USA.

    Do not book with 3rd parties
    DWIGHT_H, Jun 2020
    I reserved my Colosseum tickets for 1400, received my tickets and confirmation, but when I arrived the tickets were not slated for the time that I booked and ruined our family travel plans due to our timeline. I called Viator to resolve the issue and placed blame on me and requested that I change my travel plans. I suggest that you book elsewhere to avoid the middle man. I’m currently working to get a refund and this process seems disheartening.
    Response from Host, Aug 2020
    Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your feedback. We have forwarded the same to the concerned department for areas of improvement with our supplier. We apologize for your not so pleasant experience caused by any inconvenience or miscommunication from us. Regards Eurolink Worldwide

    Colloseo
    Pedro_p, Oct 2019
    Skiptheline tickets are a must have. The lines are long and could occupy more time than the actual experience of visiting a historical site. Highly recommend it.

    Schlecht ausgeschildert....
    josefinejenner, Jul 2022
    Schlecht ausgeschildert. Man wusste garnicht wo man überall hin kann bzw. Wo man lang darf. Dazu kommt dann noch der Preis der dafür viel zu hoch ist.
    Response from Host, Jul 2022
    Dear Josefine, We apologize for the unpleasant experience you had, we will surely bring this to the notice of the officials at the Colosseum. We thank you very much for taking the time to review the service and bringing this issue to our attention.
    Pesima experiencia en esta actividad
    Emmanuel_V, May 2022
    Nunca me llegaron los boletos para entrar al Coliseo y tuve que recomprar los boletos en otro punto de venta, ya que no me dieron ningun punto de encuentro para recogerlos y no me llegaron por correo.
    Envoi billet non réalisé
    Delphine_K, Apr 2022
    Le billet ne nous a pas été envoyé en amont. Refoulés l’entrée. Obligé d’appeler le voyagiste qui ne parlait pas français.
    Response from Host, Apr 2022
    Dear Sir/Madam, We apologize for the inconvenience. The tickets are usually sent a week before the travel date and this has also been mentioned on the booking page. Most of the time the tickets sent go to the traveler's SPAM mail. Get in touch with us the next time you are in Rome we will do our best to help you have a great experience. Best Regards Team Eurolink Worldwide
