I am trying to book the entrance tickets to the Colosseum to prevent the lines. Can someone tell me how I can also book the tour (the normal tour, not the underground tour)? I saw information regarding the time but didn't see anywhere that allowed me to book.

For your information, I am using http://www.coopculture.it/en/colosseo-e-shop.cfm.

Thanks in advance.

You really need to post this on the Eruope forum to get a response from Italy experts.

Had clicked on the US and somehow got here.

It seems to have been transferred to the right forum now.

You can buy tickets online, but to book a tour (any tour) you need to call them. The number is at the bottom of the page, where it says, "Buy all services listed above through the call center".

Make sure to write down your reservation, asking them to repeat it, and spell out your email address carefully. The operators speak English, but "A" in English sounds like "E" in European languages, and it's easy for a non-native speaker to get them backwards, so say, for example, "A as in apple", "E as in Edward". Then ask them to repeat it back.

Call during Italian business hours.
