Good experience - Colosseum Tour
Mitchell_M, May 2024
We had a good experience with a knowledgeable tour guide. Only comment would be that we were told it would be a private tour and it ended up being about 25 people.
Response from Host, May 2024
Thank you so much for your feedback! The private tours are marked as "private", the one you booked was a shared tour.
Colleseum is something to see!
peggy_W, May 2024
Our guide "John" was very nice and went slow enough for all.of us to keep up. His knowledge of the history of the Romans and Colleseum was great. Our tickets extended to Palatine Hill and the Forum but we opted not to continue on.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We appreciate it!
Wow! Absolutely wonderful!
Lynnette_C, Apr 2024
This is easily the best tour I have ever been on. My husband and I visited the Colosseum 15 years ago and only purchased an audio tour. This time we did it right and wow were we amazed. Our guide was so wonderful, so knowledgeable - I learned so many interesting and memorable facts. He got us access to every single part of the colosseum and quickly. It was honestly hard to say goodbye! We would have wished him to lead us on every tour we have booked. My son and daughter who were not enthused for a tour left telling us how much they enjoyed it, how surprised they were to enjoy it, that the tour guide was so wonderful and they learned so much. Grateful. Thank you!
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you so much for your feedback, Lynnette! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the tour with us! Looking forward to hosting you again in the future!
Overall good
Heather_J, Sep 2023
Overall the tour was good, however it seemed that our guide was fairly new. Had to leave early as we didn’t have any restroom breaks and the tour took longer than expected. Some people complained about there being a line for the colosseum but it moved quickly.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Thank you for the feedback, Heather! The duration of the tour is specified under the "details" section. Also, yes, there is a security line we can't skip.
Great tour + Great tour guide = an amazing experience

The tour and guide was extraordinary. The history and artifacts is one thing. But to have such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide who was engaging and energetic made this tour forever memorable!

Excellent tour!
Stefanie_Z, Aug 2022
What a tremendous experience! Marco was our guide and brought our tour to life. He was so informative and kept everyone interested. He was helpful with stories and history but kept it concise to maintain attention. He always made sure to tell us when we were going to have the best views and important facts. He even continued our tour with information and where to have the best views at Palestine hill and the Roman forum. He made our experience absolutely fantastic!!! Highly recommend.
