      Mandy_W, Mar 2024
      You need to say wear to meet the guide and what to look out for a name or a flag and what colour it will be not very good information

      Vytautas_M, Mar 2024
      The whole tour was, tour guide was very good even when it came to her being questioned non tour relating questions Naomi had all the answers which showed that she knows a lot more than just stated in the tour guide
      Excellent! Definitely worth the money
      BRANDIE_T, Mar 2024
      Tour guide was great. Informative and friendly, he gave us plenty of time to take pictures, and described every aspect of the tour in detail.
      Breathtaking!
      Jenifer_P, Jan 2024
      What an amazing tour! Our guide, Noemi, was fabulous. She was a walking encyclopedia and Rome enthusiast. Her passion for the city was conveyed in everything she explained to the group. We had about 20 people in our group and Noemi stopped frequently to make sure we were all still there. The headsets worked great, we could hear everything loud and clear. The price of the tour was well worth it and we’d highly recommend it to anyone! Helpful Tips: 1. Make sure to have your passport with you! There were several people scrambling at the check-in spot because they didn’t have their passport (which was clearly in the directions). 2. Use the bathroom right before the tour and at the spot on top of Palintine Hill (the guide stopped for like 15 minutes here). It’s the only bathroom until the end of the tour. 3. Don’t panic at the check-in spot, it’s a large area and there are a lot of groups that meet here. We arrived pretty early and couldn’t find the guide (were told there would be a white flag…well, there was a lot of white flags). We asked numerous other guides at the check-in spot if we were at the right spot and they all pointed us in the right direction (the guide just wasn’t there yet). My last photo shows where our taxi driver dropped us off, and where we eventually found the guy with the “white flag” for this tour.
      Had a great tour with Ilaria !

      Very well explained and the tour was at a good slow steady pace, and gave enough time to take pictures.
      Colosseum and ancient Rome
      Bridget_H, Oct 2023
      Colosseum tour was amazing. Tour guide was difficult to understand and had poor time management. It got to the end of the tour and we still had not arrived at the Roman forum.
      Perfect experience
      CheeWan_G, Oct 2023
      Awesome experience and beautiful structure. We enjoy the walk and explained from the tour guide. After tour you may feel free to stay for more photo
      Must see-fell flat
      George_B, Oct 2023
      The Roman Forum, Palentine Hill, and the colosseum are places everyone needs to see. Unfortunately this tour fell flat, despite the weather being perfect.
      Helpful assistance for my goobered up reservation
      Karl_K, Oct 2023
      I had really goobered up and mistakenly booked the tour in Italian but the tour operators at the Coliseum were so helpful and found spots on another tour in English. The tour guide spoke English and was witty and so helpful in keeping us organized. Her insight as an archeologist was so beneficial.
      Interesting
      Chadley_S, Oct 2023
      Guide was great and a lot of information. Very cool experience. Would recommend as long as able to walk for about 3 hours.
      Maria was great
      Mike_S, Oct 2023
      Maria our guide was fantastic. Our own personal Archeologist and super knowledgeable guide. She beat the crowds from experience and set an enjoyable pace.
      Definitely worth it!
      Jaclyn_T, Oct 2023
      We took the Spanish language tour, our tour guide was excellent! It was good to go into the area floor and definitely worth it to hear all of the knowledge from a guide.
      We had a great experience with our Colosseum and Palentine Hill tour.
      Raquel_B, Oct 2023
      We had a great experience with our Colosseum and Palentine Hill tour. We moved at a great pace, so we were getting all of the fun facts and information, but it wasn’t dragging on. Our group was smaller. She did say that we did not have some people come, but it was an acceptable size to maneuver around the area. Our guide (Maria) was knowledgeable and efficient.
      Good if you are tight on time but want to see and hear about the sites.
      Nicholas_J, Sep 2023
      Enough information to make the walk through the sites good but there were several times where we felt rushed. I understand it's a group tour and can't hang out forever in one place. We didn't get a chance to stop into the bookstore and what I assume was a gift shop at the coleseum as our choices were to stay at the coleseum and miss out on the hill palace and forum ruins since the guide held our entry tickets. Overall was good enough. We did enjoy the information and archeological insight on things throughout the tour. Having the priority access was nice too so we weren't standing in line forever.
      rip-off

      Had a great tour guide that was very knowledgeable and friendly, overall great experience! She tried to keep us in the shade as much as possible since it was well over 100 degrees!
