How to purchase Colosseum tickets?

Hello,

I would like to purchase Colosseum tickets with the Underground tour. Do you know what tickets I need to buy?

Do I just buy the admission ticket (11 euro + 2 euro reservation fee) and 9 euro underground tour fee? I see that there's also a reservation fee of 2 euro with the underground tour fee, do I need to get that too?

Thanks,
Jon

Jon. That is exactly right. You buy the general admission ticket for 11euro plus 2 euro booking fee. This also gives entry to the Forum and can be used on any two consecutive days in 2015. You also buy the 9euro plus 2euro booking fee underground and third ring tour. This must be for a specific time and date. Make sure you select the English speaking tour. The coop website is currently advising people to get there half an hour early as security has been raised and entry may be slowed down. There are also new restrictions on bags that can be taken in. Full details are also on the coop website.

There is no need to take a tour of the underground areas and the tour of the main areas. The information is all the same-about the structure. After the underground tour you can explore the main areas for as long as you wish so you don't need to worry about "overlapping" tours because you don't need to take both.
