I would preface this with the description that myself and my girlfriend are very relaxed when it comes to slow service and chaos, however this experience was quite disappointing to be honest. The organisation was sub-par: it said to meet people in purple t shirts (who were there) however the stress when realising that the company on the booking didn't match the company looking at tickets was quite alarming. Similarly, the tour group was WAY too big (about 40). We thought it would split up and be two groups, but we did not. The whole tour around the colloseum was rushed, and left a rather sour taste in our mouths. I would review the rest of the tour, but we left after about 45 minutes as we felt that we weren't even looking at the colosseum, we were just rushing around it. The guide however, was lovely, and she boosted the rating up a star, but for what you pay (about 60 quid) I was very disappointed. My advice: join the tour to get in quickly (though not much faster) and then leave promptly so you can look around in your own pace and then see the forum and palatine Hill. A real shame.

Very disorganized. Was called the night before and told to be there an hour earlier got there an hour early they didn’t have my reservations. Then had to call someone else. Finally, found it. The hen was told oh you have to check in later. Checked in later went to the ladies room and they left us. We had to catch up. Tour guide spoke English but it wasn’t clear.

Wow, Alessandro truly knew his stuff and shared freely. Would absolutely recommend, felt my limited knowledge was expanded, by someone who gave freely and was truly enthused by his subject. Could not be more pleased and grateful x

This tour was the best ever, started on time and very informative. Our tour guide Velejrio was amazing. Highly recommended, best tour in Rome.

Our tour guide, Sandra, was spectacular! She was so knowledgeable and passionate of the Italian history. She was also very considerate and full of energy! Would definitely come back to one of her tours.

Monique_E

Best experience. We felt it was perhaps the best tour we have ever been on, mainly due to our guide, Vasco (I hope that's how you spell it!) who is an archeologist and was incredibly informative. Amazing. One of the top highlights of a month- long trip.

"observing and seeing so much history in person and culture was over whelming and so real " of something we only see in a movie...Amazing!

Linda_R

Our guide made analogies to Ancient Rome to modern life. Very helpful. His love of the history was infectious.

The tour itself turned out to be fantastic. However, the experience trying to find the tour guide was awful. According to our instructions from our tour operator called “The Tour” (poorly chosen name), we were supposed to meet them wearing purple shirts. The only people who were wearing purple shirts at the very busy site outside the Colloseo were with a tour operator called “Crown Tours”. I approached a guy from this group. He saw that my tour operator’s name was “The Tour”. He immediately said they were not the group I was looking for. So we spent the next 20 minutes looking for “The Tour”. We could not find any such group. And no one else was wearing purple shirts. I called the phone number for “The Tour”. They never answered. We thought we had missed the tour because the meeting time had passed. Then I texted “The Tour” but didn’t receive a response immediately. Then I tried to talk to another guy from “Crown Tours”. He was more helpful than the first one and made some calls. Right then I received a text back from “The Tour” saying I should look for his colleagues with the purple shirts with a company called “Crown Tours”. At that point the Crown Tours guy said that “The Tour” was one of the groups they collaborated with and helped out. I asked them why their first guy had no idea about that. They didn’t have an answer. I said if you know you are collaborating with another tour group you should not be sending people who are looking for that tour group away. Again they had no good answer. We did ultimately get to join the Crown Tours group. The tour guide was good. But both the first Crown Tours guy who sent us away and “The Tour” company should be given a fail for their service. The first Crown Tours guy should have known about their deal with “The Tour”, and “The Tour” operator should have told us right off the bat that we should be looking for a group called “Crown Tours”. There was no reason why they left out that very important information.

Unfortunately, with the large crowds it was difficult to hear our guide. Also, the group of 24 seemed too large, because if we became separated by more than 15 feet, the audio would stop working. I think groups of 12 should be the maximum size.
