Colosseum Underground Tour

We have booked 3 tickets for "Skip the Line" tour of The Forum, Palentine Hill and the Colosseum. We now want to add the underground tour. Our company wants another $100. Is it possible to buy this Underground tour when we get to Rome mid Sept.?

I don;t know about a tour company, but I ordered our tickets by phone, and the regular entrance is like 12 euro and the underground is an extra 9 euro or something... $100 sounds like way too much. I'm not sure about buying them on arrival, sorry. :(

You are asked to reserve at least one day ahead for the underground tour from www.coopculture.it. If you have booked a half-day tour through Viator, then you're starting somewhere else, both arriving at and departing from the Colosseum with your group, so I'm not sure how the underground addition would fit into their plan.

$100 is ridiculous. The tour costs an additional 9 euros each. Just book through the official website. Personally, I would cancel with any tour company that wants to extort that much money out of you. Book directly with the official colosseum site. You'll need to call to book the underground tour but tour and entry tickets will cost you 22 euros each. You can book a tour of the forum and palatine hill for an additional 5 euros. Check out the official websites:

Can you buy the underground ticket, even if using one of the 2 Roma pass tours to visit the rest of the Colosseum? Thanks in advance.

In the past you could do that. Just call them up and reserve the underground tour seperate. Mention to them you'll be using the Roma Pass for admission that day.

Yes, you can book the underground tour and still use the romapass for entry. You can only book the underground by calling but be sure to mention that you already have tickets and just want to add the tour.
