Colloseum Thru the Eyes of Matteo - This tour experience was history overload on steroids. I love history and it was incredible to be standing in a location where my imagination just ran wild. It was overwhelming. We also had the best tour guide in Matteo F with Crown Tours, who was very knowledgeable about the past and present of the colosseum. It helps that he grew up as a child playing among the ruins while his dad was a street vendor. Loved every minute of the tour, not the heat but Matteo made sure we found a lot of shaded areas while he continued to talk about the romans who came to see the spectacle within the colloseum.

Unforgettable Roman Adventure with Damiano Libiachi - We had an unforgettable experience on our guided tour of the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and the Colosseum, thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Damiano Libiachi. His enthusiasm was contagious, making the rich history of ancient Rome come alive with every story he told. Damiano's friendly and engaging style made us feel welcome and involved, ensuring that everyone in the group had a fantastic time. His deep knowledge and passion for Roman history were evident, and he effortlessly answered all our questions. We highly recommend this tour and especially commend Damiano for making it such a memorable adventure. His great tips and recommendations about Rome, from the best photo spots to local dining and hidden gems, added an extra layer of enjoyment to the tour

There is significant room... - There is significant room for improvement on the storytelling element of this tour. The plastic sleeves with artistic impressions are lack lustre.

Aweful experience and still no refund - This was the only bad experience during our recent trip to Italy. I booked this tour in advance and its non-refundable tour. They changed the time of the tour from my original time to an earlier time, I was traveling when they send a text of notification and didn't have a chance to thoroughly review it. We arrived at our committed time and missed the tour, they didn't even try to solve the issue while I heard them talking among each other in Italian to squeeze someone else in the last minute. Luckily we had a couple more days in Rome and was able to book another tour, imagine some family who booked this tour on their last day in Rome, they would have missed the experience. A full refund was promised within 3-5 business day, now we are back home and a good 10 days have elapsed, still no refund.
