Visiting the Roman
Colosseum - Coach Tours
Coach tours are great for
those visitors who prefer not to have to walk too far.
However, visitors on Coach Tours will not be able to see
some of the most famous sights as places like the Pantheon,
Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps are pedestrian only
zones. It is also worth checking whether a coach tour allows
for actually going into the Colosseum.
