First time visit to Rome,... - First time visit to Rome, definitely a must to tour the Collisseum. Our guide Andreea was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable of the subject. We only had our group of 4 on the tour, (because of no shows) but that gave us a much more personalized tour. Excellent tour to start off our journey of Italy.

Sensational - The Tour guide Tania went above and beyond and was so informative, engaging and simply the best. The company gave us a refund of 20 Euro as we were unable to Tour the Arena floor but we saw other parts which we will treasure.

Colosseum Amazing! - The Colosseum was amazing, as expected! Did not get to tour the arena floor as tickets were unavailable according to you although that was supposed to be part of the tour we paid for. Still waiting on partial refund that you promised!

Enlightening, precise, on time - Most knowledgeable tour guide. I learned a lot!!!! The tour guide was awesome, I can’t remember her name because I am reviewing late but she’s a California native! She interacted with my kids and took breaks if needed. She was on time and gave additional recommendations for after the tours end. Very nice!

The Manchesters in Rome - Sarah was an excellent guide. Even the short walk to start contained great local knowledge. All aspects and areas of the tour had us gripped. Sarah was friendly and funny, she looked after all members of the tour with their different needs and took and excellent picture for us. Everything was well spaced out so we Could really take in what we were experiencing. We would definitely recommend this tour

Decent tour but really depends on the guide… - I booked an 11am tour as we had only one day in Rome, but the tour was rescheduled to 3:30pm a few days before, and this already was a bad start. By 3:30pm we had been walking all over Rome at 35 degrees, and we were so done! However, the Colosseum was the one thing my kids wanted to see in Rome, so we stayed the course. Also, the tour was non refundable and there is disclaimer for that reason, should the tour time be rescheduled, there is nothing that can be done. The meeting point is a 10 minute walk from the site. The Colosseum was and is spectacular. But so much was lost using the radio headphones. I only caught half of what our guide was saying because of technical difficulties and background noise. Our group was only 10, which was good because any bigger would have been a gong show. Our guide walked really fast, and we were constantly lagging behind, loosing her voice in the process and therefore only catching half of what she said. Overall, the price of this tour was worth the line skipping and human guide you could ask questions to. Everything in between was meh. My husband and teen enjoyed the tour much more than my 9 year old and I. The arena floor was the highlight, and this tour is the cheapest I could find that included it. The quality of the tour was ok. The guide left much to be desired.
