Can you buy water at the Colosseum?

Especially in summer, having a bottle that you can easily fill in the many available fountains all over Rome is a great idea. While you will find people selling water all around the Colosseum and Roman Forum, you will likely overpay for it. And there's no reason to do that when Rome is filled with free water!

Wear comfortable clothes - no heels or stiff shirts - as you will be doing a lot of walking around on your visit. Sneakers or walking boots are ideal, or a sturdy pair of sandals that don't hurt your feet.
