    Brilliant tour!
    Natalie_N, Apr 2024
    Went on the VIP small group tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum last week with Andrea! Absolutely loved the tour - Andrea’s knowledge was amazing having a PHD in archeology with a special interest in the late Roman Empire and early Christianity. Having just arrived in Italy from Australia with barely any sleep in the preceding 48hrs, he made what might have been a difficult day into one we won’t forget! Thank you!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    We're thrilled to hear you had a brilliant experience on our Colosseum VIP Small Group Tour with Andrea. It's fantastic that his expertise and passion for archaeology made the tour so memorable for you. We appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable experiences in the future!
    Felicity was the best tour guide ever ……..
    Aparna_K, Apr 2024
    Felicity was an amazing tour guide !! Presented so much information in such an interesting and entertaining way ….. even my 12 and 14 yo kids were fascinated ( and that is no easy task) ! Enjoyed our tour so much. Definately the best tour we have done on our almost 2 week Italy trip ! Well worth the splurge to do a small group tour and buy tickets to go to the arena level.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024

    Felicity is one of the best guides in Rome!

    My wife snd I were visiting from NYC and were lucky enough to find an opening short notice. This 3hr tour was just the right anoint of time to be fully immersed in the 3 main sites and hold our attention on a hkt day in June. Our guide (Ivanka) was very knowledgeable and spirited- making the tour very engaging and fun!

    affonsoj415, Oct 2019
    Good information and details from the tour guides, well planned tour, skipped the long lines ushered in quickly, while we were waiting for that short period, the tour guide gave us some more information and details. Tour guides gave us enough of time in between to take pictures etc,
