About this tour
Pair the Colosseum with one of Rome’s most powerful sculptures: Michelangelo’s Moses, a short walk away in the Basilica of San Pietro in Vincoli.
Michelangelo’s Moses
Carved for the tomb of Pope Julius II, the seated Moses is one of Michelangelo’s masterpieces, and the church also keeps the chains said to have bound St. Peter. It’s a quiet, often overlooked stop just minutes from the Colosseum.
The Colosseum and its arena
Walk down to the Colosseum for a guided visit and the arena floor, with the lives of the gladiators told where they fought. Afterwards, your ticket covers the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill to explore at your own pace.
