      Short guided tour through the Colosseum
      MariaSoledad_A, Nov 2022
      The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable in topics about the Roman Colosseum, but when asked about historic events somewhat related to the Colosseum couldn't answer with certainty. It could be that his English was somewhat limited. Also, the company didn't give us from the beginning the tickets to visit the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill. So when the tour finished at the Colosseum (the guided tour is just for the Colosseum) and asked the guide, he told us we had to get back to the office which was not close. This was not the guide's fault, but we had to walk back to the office under the rain and trying to sort the crowds. I found the experience somewhat disorganized
      Just ok

      Our guide was informative when it came to the Colosseum, but it all seemed a bit unorganized. Once Colosseum tour ended, we were given tickcets to Palatine Hill and The Roman Forum and were left to figure out the rest on our own. It would have been nice to have some sort of explanation to those things as well.
      Don’t be taken advantage of like we were.
      James_S, Sep 2022
      Felt taken advantage of. Paid for a guided tour and was only guided through the colosseum and then given tickets to enter and explore on my own. Waste of money. Better to just buy all your tickets yourself and save yourself a lot of money.
      Great tour but needs better office staff
      JaTaun_B, Aug 2022
      The tour guide was absolutely amazing. However, the woman who was working the front desk at the office where you check in was not not very pleasant. I wouldn’t refer my friends based on that alone. The tour is long and can be hot. Otherwise, our tour was very informative with lots of great picture spots.
