Like spending the day with a friend! - We booked a private tour of the Colosseum and we LOVED our guide Maria Linda! She was so sweet and so knowledgeable and we could've spent all day with her. I was so excited to see the arena again after 25 years since the first time I was there and she really took the time to tell us all stories! It was like spending the day with a close friend who lives in Rome. Also Eyes of Rome arranged to have Maria Linda and a driver pick us up at our hotel and take us to the tour site, which was such a pleasure and so convenient! Highly recommend!

Best way to see the coliseum - Giulia was the best tour guide and made our visit outstanding. She was full of energy and so knowledgeable- can’t image a better way to learn the history than with an archeologist! We stood on the coliseum floor, moved up to see from a decent perspective, and toured the Roman forum. We highly recommend this tour. Thank you Giulia!

Breath taking views and experiences with my family - It was my families first time visiting Europe/Rome. Visiting the Coliseum has been a lifelong bucklist location and Pamela brought it to life for us.. she provided amazing details and facts while keeping us on track and entertained. I will be recommending her to my friends who will be visiting Rome soon!

Unforgettable Experience for our Family! - We did two tours with Eyes of Rome and both were absolutely fabulous. We traveled with our two boys, ages 10 and 7, and were blown away by how engaging, fun, and educational each experience was. The Kid-Friendly Scavenger Hunt with Elisa was a perfect blend of learning and adventure. Elisa was so sweet and full of energy—she kept our boys completely engaged and excited the entire time. They were learning without even realizing it, and had a blast solving clues and exploring the city. Our Colosseum tour with Eleonora was just as incredible. She brought history to life in such a vivid and captivating way. Her warmth and enthusiasm made the experience feel personal and meaningful, and again, our boys were hooked from the start. If you're traveling to Rome with kids and want to give them a truly unique and fun way to learn about history and culture, this is the way to do it. These tours were the highlight of our time in Rome and we’ll be recommending them to everyone we know.

Highlight of our trip! - We did two tours with eyes of Rome and both were EXCEPTIONAL! The golf cart tour gave us the incredible scope of Rome as a whole- and the forum/colosseum was an unparalleled experience! Truly highlights of our trip-and thank you to both of our amazing guides (Marco & Elisa) for making Rome come to life for us!

Excellent experience with Simone - Amazing experience from start to finish! Very easy to deal with at booking and answered all my questions. Simone was extremely knowledgeable and an excellent guide. I have been to the coliseum before two times but got so much more out of it with a tour.
