I had Yonut as a tour guide and he was very passionate and knowledgeable! I really enjoyed getting to hear about the architecture itself and the many civilizations it has endured. Yonut also answered my questions and allowed time to stop for pictures wherever I wanted and let the tourist guide the pace to an extent. Highly recommend!

Hilaria conducted an excellent and informative tour in crowded conditions and found the perfect spots for viewing and photography. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were wonderful, and made the history of the Colosseum and Forum come alive. She had obvious passion for her subject. Highly recommended!

Jennifer_B

What a great experience we had. Our tour guide, Elaria, was so informative, energetic and passionate as we toured. We learned so much about Italy’s history. Highly recommend!

Jennifer_D

Loved hearing about the history and seeing up close. It was extremely crowded though and I ran out of energy with so many people around.

They decided to abruptly move our original scheduled time to the afternoon. When we arrived at the meeting point, 30 minutes before our original time as per their instructions, a not too friendly woman told us that our tour had been moved for a later time and we had to come back later. We had no other choice but adjust to their change. Obviously, by this change, our plans, that were carefully planned one month in advance, disrupted everything else for the day. Fortunately, we had not scheduled any other tours for that afternoon, otherwise we would have had to choose. The tour was done by someone a little bit in a rush, but overall it was informative.

Organization is locking. Send us message day before that tour is not available anymore. Offered next day (saturday) 2pm tour. Saturday is a weekend so many people. 2pm mid day very hot but we had no choise so we did a tour. tour is 2 hrs, we had a flight in the evening. at 4 pm only half of tour was done because it started 40 min late. In the middle of the tour person from tour agency (very stressed and anoyed) came and colected head phones from all of us and microphone from the gide so we can not hair him anymore.The website says small group. Is 24 people small group?They should refund half of tour price to us!

I did this tour with my two girls aged 13 and 11. The colosseum was packed which made it difficult. The guide walked ahead and didn’t wait to check that everyone was following him. I had read that in other reviews so I was prepared and made sure to keep up with the pace. I think if the guide held an object of some kind in the air it would have helped. The tour of the colosseum itself was good in terms of the information shared by the guide and he was knowledgeable. There was nearly no information about the Forum or Palatine Hill. The guide was not animated or friendly.

Tour scheduled for 10:30 am. Received email afternoon day before to rescheduled to 11am for our group of 6. Said OK. Tour started at 11:30 am. In hind sight it gets way to busy in the area by 11:30 to go. Our tour guide spoke hard to understand English which made it much less exciting. Very scripted chant and understood half of it. Go to the Colusium, take a better tour, and go early. After 10 or 11am it's a zoo.

Mark_W

Well, it was hot, there were close to 50 people in our group which was supposed to be a “small group tour” our guide didn’t speak the best English and honestly, didn’t seem to be extremely knowledgeable. Because the group was so big, she spent most of the time asking if we could hear her, and I want to show you this or that. It just dragged. Half the group Left before the end of the tour.
