Colosseum & Arena Floor: Guided Tour. Guide was knowledgeable but clearly in a rush and complained about the number of tourists visiting his city. £200 for a tour which lasted about an hour though billed as 90 mins with nothing you can't learn from a Lonely Planet guide book. Also, we had to go back to the tour office to get the tickets for the Forum and Palatine as they hadn't given them to the tour guide! Unfortunately because of all the tour companies feeding off the tourist trade there are very few tickets available to just wander the sites yourself which is a much better way to go. The tickets for a family of four if you can get them are 42 euros. Not a bad mark up!
