By booking and printing our tickets at home this service was great! We arrived at the skip the line to the colosseum and literally just walked right in no messing. When attending the forum and palatine you have to put your bags etc on to the belt for detection like at the airport and you walk through a detector yourself. Again as we had skip the line tickets and it wasn’t busy during this time we entered in no time! It’s very big in this part, so if you have an afternoon appointment for the colosseum, you still have 24h remaining from that time on your ticket to go to the forum and palatine, its so beautiful with lots of gardens that it would be a shame to rush this so the 24h is great to spread this over two days.
