Isabelle_L

Amazing value for money. Our guide Fabio was excellent! Very knowledgeable and kind. I definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting the Colosseum for the first time.

Mandy_W

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

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

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.

Laura Antonucci was our tour guide and he brought humour and a lot of insight to our tour. The tour was well organised and we managed to get round all the sights during the 3 hour slot. This is a must see and having a real tour guide rather than audio was great. The only slight negative would be the exact meeting location on maps takes you slightly further up from the actual meeting point so we spent 10 minutes unsure if we were at the right place however we eventually got through to the office phone and were pointed in the right direction.

Amazing tour with a really knowledgable host Laura Antonucci. We both enjoyed it a lot, thank you. Would recommend highly.

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.
