I just wanted to say that based on this video we purchased the SUPER site tickets for our trip to Rome. It lived up to all said by Rome Wise...and more! The sites we got to see were fantastic, and had my family commented how great it was to have these tickets. As were wandering through the House of Augustus virtually alone, spending as much time as we wanted with no one in front of us, the Forum was teeming with thousands and thousands of people. Our favorites were the House of Augustus and the Church of Maria Antigua. The tickets were well worth it! Thank you Rome Wise!

Elyssa, you really are the goto guide for Rome. I just subscribed. You provide a wealth of information but my head is still spinning. I'd like to explain what I want to do and then you or perhaps a viewer can give me some advice. I will be visiting Rome in mid-May 2023 for 8 days. It's a bucket list trip so I'm not concerned about ticket prices. I'll gladly pay the premium prices for "skip the line" and total experience access. I'm budgeting two consecutive days for the Colosseum, Forum and Palatine Hill. I definitely want the Super Sites and I've made a grid of the days/times open/closed for each site (thanks for that helpful info). Confession: I really want to walk through the Neronian Cryptoportucus. But the other Super Sites are also a must. So, for two days, (ideally two day visits for the Forum and Palatine Hill with the Colosseum on ONE of those days), where money is not a concern how should I structure that? If it means buying two separate Super Site day passes, then that's fine. Thanks for any advice.

Hello Bill and thanks so much for your kind comments. Here is what I suggest - you will need to purchase a Colosseum Full Experience ticket so you can visit the Colosseum + Roman Forum/Palatine + SUPER sites. However, please note that the Full Experience tickets are notoriously hard to come by. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKfVZoh6eLCsqas So worst- case scenario, you may need to purchase this ticket on a reseller website: Colosseum Underground tours on Get Your Guide: tinyurl.com/GYG-Colosseum-Underground Colosseum and related tickets on Tiqets: tinyurl.com/Tiqets-Colosseum Once you have this ticket and plan your first visit to the Roman Forum/Palatine Hill SUPER sites, then you can buy your second ticket to the Roman Forum/Palatine Hill, which is JUST the Roman Forum SUPER ticket. This is easy to buy and it doesn't have the same problems as the Colosseum Underground tickets (lack of availability due to huge demand and limited supply/access.) I hope that helps! We also offer custom trip planning services if you like. Just fill out this form and we can go from there: www.romewise.com/italy-trip-planning-services.html

Thank you so much! No one except you is providing this information on KZbin. Thanks to you I acquired 2 early entry tickets to the Vatican Museum for May. Now I monitor the Coopculture website on a daily basis in order to hopefully secure two "Full Experience" Tickets. One last question: full entry SUPER tickets to the Colosseum/Forum/Palatine also include the Imperial Forums. Is there an entrance to view these sites such as Trajan's Column at ground level rather than simply viewing them from the walkway along Via dei Fori Imperiali?

Thank you so much! I am happy to give you guys helpful info for visiting Rome. It's easy to take a lot of this stuff for granted when you live here, but I know first-hand how confusing some of these things can be. So glad you find my videos and content helpful and that it helped you secure the tickets you want. Basically, whenever you are in the Roman Forum, you should have direct access to the Imperial Forums as well. You just walk past the Curia Lulia and follow the pathway through Julius Ceasar's forum. It will take you underground beneath the via dei Fori Imperiali and you will pop out on the ground level of Trajan's Forum. You can see the column really well from there! Have a great visit!

I know it is supposed to be in the area close to Circus Maximus and Port Capena but is there a tradition to where exactly the place could have been? Are there still springs in that area? I know about the Nymphaeum of Egeria further south but that doesn't seem to build on the myth. It's on my "places to visit" next time I go to Rome. Thanks for all your great videos!
@Romewise11 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for your kind words. Well, I don't have an easy answer for you. There is a piazza Numa Pompilio which is between the Baths of Caracalla and the beginning of the Ancient Appian Way (the via di porta San Sebastiano). And Porta Capena is right nearby but there is no spring anywhere in the area that I know of. As you mention, there is the nympheum in the Parco della Caffarella, well worth a visit, but it's not exactly near Porta Capena. There is also the Parco Egeria where you can go fill up your bottle with Egerian spring water, a popular spot for Romans and full of life and activity in warm weather. www.egeria.it/en/egeria-park/ But I am not sure if any of these are exactly the spot you are looking for. We may never know exactly where the spot is, but you can visit these other related areas and you might find it enjoyable!

And for the Colosseum, there is no way to visit it, whether with a normal ticket or the full experience ticket, without booking a date and time. The Roman Forum/Palatine Hill do not require a time/date booking but the tickets must still be purchased online or over the phone.

Ciao! Thank you for all the super helpful tips for Rome, Italy!! I have a question. I purchased a super site pass on Coop Culture for Roman Forum and Palentine Hill and it was an open ticket. I'm hoping I can use it in November when we come. I am concerned I ordered the wrong thing since it was in Itallian. Would you be so kind to advise if you think we ordered the open ticket where would we present such a thing to gain admission?
@Romewise Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching and for your comments. The Roman Forum SUPER pass is valid for up to 30 days from the date of purchase. Then, once you activate it, it can only be used one time and there is no re-entry. So basically you have one day to visit all the sites, but that day needs to be 30 days from your purchase date. I'm afraid you may not be allowed to use this ticket in November as it's more than 30 days from now. You can try to use your ticket when you come but if they don't let you (as it's expired) you'll have to purchase a new ticket. This type of ticket doesn't sell out so it's ok to purchase it even on the same day you plan to visit the site.

@Romewise Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your comments. When you purchase this pass, you have 30 days from the purchase date to use it. Then, once you activate it, it's good for one day only. There is no-re-entry. So as I mentioned, you need to pick what you really want to see, because some sites on the pass are not open daily. If seeing the Curia Julia is important to you, then you'll need to visit on one of the days it's open. If you really want to visit more sites, you can either buy a second ticket, or you can spend 50€ and purchase a year-long pass that offers unlimited access to the Colosseum and Roman Forum/Palatine Hill and includes all the SUPER sites.

Like we schedule the colosseum for Tuesday at 3:00 p.m. then we can start visiting the forum etc. Monday at 3:00p.m. But we wouldn't be able to enter again on Tuesday morning.

@Romewise Жыл бұрын
You are correct - with the Full Experience ticket, you can visit the Roman Forum /Palatine Hill the day prior or the day after your Colosseum visit. And of course, you can also visit them on the same day as your Colosseum visit. The 2 days must be consecutive. There is NO re-entry, and the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill is considered ONE park. So, if you really want to get the most out of this ticket, I suggest splitting the visits over two days. On the day you visit the Forum /Palatine, I recommend taking the entire day and bringing something to eat. There is indeed SO much to see. I live here, I go often, and I am always seeing new things.
@Romewise Жыл бұрын
If you have a very strong interest in Ancient Rome, you will absolutely love the Roman Forum / Palatine Hill. But yes there is way too much to see in just one day. You could: 1) Purchase the Full Experience ticket and visit the Forum / Palatine on its own day. Or you could get just a regular Colosseum ticket that doesn't give you access to the SUPER sites but does give you access to the Roman Forum /Palatine regular sites. You could scratch the surface with this type of visit and then go back a second day (with an additional ticket, see below) to explore in more depth: 2) Purchase a SECOND Forum / Palatine SUPER pass and take a SECOND day to go back and see all the sites you missed the first day. The Forum SUPER pass is available all the time and you can purchase it last-minute so you could always decide after your first day in the park. If you want more time, then just get the SUPER pass for an additional day.

You can easily visit all of this in one day. As I mentioned in this video, you should plan out what you want to see in the Roman Forum / Palatine Hill park. Your ticket includes ONE entrance to that park and there is no re-entry. So make a plan, check closing dates (not all the SUPER sites are open every day), and go as early in the day as you can. I'd get there at 9AM when they open. See as much as you can/ want, and then break for a late lunch and get to the Colosseum for your late afternoon visit.@@pmc89

We spread our visits out over our week. It lets you enjoy the sites without rushing, especially if it's very busy.. Overall, we saved about €100 over the week between 3.

Hello Wayne, sorry I didn't see your messages yet on Instagram. I will look for them. Please feel free to write me directly at elyssa@romewise.com. It's easier for me to answer e-mail. Thanks!
