Security and Entry
Remember, everyone must go through security even with pre-booked tickets. However, pre-booked visitors typically experience shorter wait times, making it a wise choice, especially during the scorching Roman summer.
Skip the Lines with Pre-Booked Tickets
The Colosseum has two entrances: one for those who have pre-booked their tickets and another for those purchasing tickets on the spot. The pre-booked line is significantly shorter, allowing you to enter the Colosseum quickly and start exploring.
