Incredible tour, Incredible guide. - We went on the small group Colosseum and Forum small-group tour and it was amazing. Our guide Viola was so helpful and so very knowledgeable, and the fact it was a small group meant she could answer individual questions and have individual conversations with guests, rather than having to focus on herding an unmanageable group of 20+ around. It also meant we were able to use entry gates for smaller groups rather than queue at the others, and Viola was expert in getting us to the most interesting places quickly but without feeling rushed. Definitely recommended!

Giuseppe's dry wit and knowledge made for a wonderful tour - Giuseppe Was a great guide. I don't know if he gives tours full time, or if he also is a teacher or historian... but he was both super interested in the details of what he was sharing and passionate about the subject. His enthusiasm was contagious. He also had a wonderful dry wit that had me laughing often, a laid back demeanor which was calming to a group on a busy day and made the whole experience come alive. Giuseppe Is really good at his job, my family is thankful for a super fun day with great memories. Well, well worth it.

Great guide! - Eugenio was brilliant. He had so much information that we'd never have known just walking round by ourselves. We had a small group of 12 and it was worth every penny. He was fantastic and would defo pay for another tour. He was such a good guide and made it really fun!

Crown Tours…Not the best - We were disappointed with our experience with Crown Tours. I would recommend another tour operator. Our guide wasn’t the best. We didn’t find his commentary very informative. His strong accent made him difficult to understand as well. He also didn’t ensure the pace for the group as a whole. With one family always dragging behind, and not for physical/understandable reasons, we were always standing around and waiting. Also, our tour start time was 2 pm, but our ticket entrance time to the Colosseum wasn’t until 4 pm so we had to do the sights in reverse, which was not the expected order.

Crown Tours to Avoid - The places are amazing, the sites exceptional. Crown tours are not recommended to book this experience. The audio guide app (download to our phone) did not work smoothly, explanations were null, incomplete, chat gpt was more effective. The layout is lame, without precision, we find ourselves lost in the middle of the coliseum and the forum. There is no consistency with the figures for the Coliseum visit. We have to go to a small office in order to download an app to track the visit. Which monopolizes the entire phone battery... Strategy to review. We are very disappointed. They have a monopoly but the quality is not there. We advise against it.
