Marvelous Must Do Tour - Paola was outstanding! He was so passionate about the history and making sure we learned everything we could. He made the tour the best experience and he personalized it by getting to know each one of us. This is a must do tour in Italy and hands down the most organized tour.

Wonderful tour! Highly recommend. - Great tour guide. She was delightful and had lots of stories about the Colosseum to share. Even though it was very crowded, she made sure we had time for photos and stopped for great views.

Unethical Company - Changes tickets at last minute in bait and hook approach BEWARE - I booked this tour multiple months in advance. 3 weeks prior, the company reached out and said they could no longer give me the tour I paid for. Nor could they give Arena access as promised. They also could no longer accommodate the paid ticket time either. Very unprofessional, and lots of unethical business practices. 10/10 do not recommend using this tour company as they will scam you if they are able to make more money off your ticket later.
