    Our tour was wonderful. Our guide was patient as we move through the stairs and ramps. He was friendly and provided great history. We had plenty of time and opportunities to take great pictures. Thanks for the awesome memories!

    Loved the tour our guide was fabulous and very informative

    Thanks so much

    El tour genial,sitio precioso.Nerea es una guia encantadora que relata todo de manera completisima y amena.

    Our lady (Vrenezuelan, don’t remember her name) was fantastic. Give her a raise

    Fantástica visita relatada por nuestra guia Patricia! Conocía absolutamente cada detalle de lo que veíamos durante nuestro recorrido. Tuvimos suerte y solamente fuimos 4 personas, por lo que todo fue más cernano y personalizado, lo que permitió sacarnos todas las dudas y preguntas, a lo que Patri con gusto respondió de forma sobresaliente. Lo recomiendo totalmente. Y además, por una confusión mía tuve que cambiar el día del tour, y la agencia muy gentilmente se encargó de reprogramar la visita, sin costo extra. Gracias por la experiencia!

    Fue una experiencia increïble! Nunca olvidaremos este dia. Cristo es un guia impresionante, tiene una manera de explicar que connecta en seguida con la gente, nos hace trasladar a la época, como si pudieramos ver lo que pasaba en directo. el tour es super entretenido, aprendes muchisimo y es muy emocionante… teniamos las espectativas altas y se ha superado. Gracias, muchas gracias por hacernos sentir como auténticos romanos. Nos emocionamos al entrar al Colisseo directamente a la Arena… con todo lo aprendido… impresionante! Gracias Cristo!

    Fue expectacular el paseo tanto por el paisaje, contrucciones y ruinas como el complemento de una guia capacitada que nos pudo hacer integrar el tour de manera de ir construyendo un inicio y un fin .

    Muy buena experiencia, muy puntuales. Nuestro guía Fabio excelente.

    Hemos realizado el.tour del coliseo , foro y monte Palatino con Fabio.Fue un excelente guía, muy dinámico y predispuesto a responder todas las dudas. Muchas gracias

    Realice la excursión y una genia Miriam ..nos explico todo super bien y muy dinámico. Además nos dio datos históricos que realmente no los sabía.
    Super recomendable. Miriam gracias por todo hasta la próxima..

    I was disappointed with this tour. We booked via The Tour Guy. The title and the majority of the description state, it is a tour of the Colosseum, but we spent the first 2 hours walking around the Forum. More time should have ben spent at the Colosseum. On the positive side, the guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback — we truly appreciate your comments and are glad to hear that you found the guide knowledgeable and friendly.

      We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. We’d like to clarify that the Colosseum Archaeological Park is an extensive site that includes not only the Colosseum but also the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. While the Colosseum is certainly the most iconic monument, the Forum and Palatine offer a vast and historically rich area that requires more time to explore and fully understand.
      We hope this helps explain the structure of the tour, and we truly value your thoughts as they help us improve. Thank you again for joining us!

    We are very disappointed as we didn’t get to go on the tour. We arrived on time and met a tour guide who said we weren’t on her list but another guide would be along shortly. No guide arrived. I emailed the company, phoned the company and we were told we had missed the tour. It was a special tour to celebrate my daughter’s 18th birthday- very disappointing. We paid extra then to go into the colosseum ourselves with no guide… overall a terrible experience.

      Thank you for your feedback, and we’re very sorry for the inconvenience you experienced.

      It appears there was a miscommunication with the guide at the meeting point, especially as several tours were departing at the same time, which may have caused some confusion. We are currently investigating the situation to understand exactly what went wrong.

      Please rest assured that we are looking into this matter thoroughly, and we will get back to you as soon as we have more clarity.

      We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this.

      Warm regards,

    Hola nuestra guia Miriam fue super simpatica, muy expresiva y nada aburrida. Hizo una visita didáctica, muy amena y nos pasó el tiempo volando. Muy bien

    Our Colosseum (with arena) + Roman Forum + Palatine Hill tour was fantastic! Our guide, Alessio, was knowledgeable and knew how to get us through the crowded places without much waiting. I would definitely recommend a guided tour for this one – it’s a lot to figure out by oneself (in limited time).

    Fantastico el trabajo y la explicación de Pedro, y gracias por sumergirnos con pasión en el mundo antiguo.

    El tour fue maravilloso, muy interesante, sobretodo gracias al trabajo de Vanesa que nos explicó toda la visita de una forma tan espectacular que parecía que estuviésemos viviendo la época dorada del foro y el Coliseo. Tanto los monumentos como las vistas son majestuosas. Muchas gracias a Vanesa por transmitirnos su pasión por la historia de Roma.

    Vanesa nos hizo l ruta muy amenda, y nos contó todas las curiosidades del foro, palatino y el coliseo. Recomendable 100%

    Todo lo que rodea a Roma, coliseum, emperadores, etc…me apasiona así que mi opinión quizás no sea del todo objetiva, o quizás si. Visitar el foro, el palatino sin conocimientos previos o sin un/a guía no tiene sentido. El tour me ha encantado, ciñéndome a nuestra guía Bianca sólo decir que me quedaría escuchándola horas y horas, es una maravilla ver como transmite. Gracias!

    Our tour was exceptional. Our tour guide provided facinating stories and she posessed vast knowledge of the Colosseum as well as Ancient Rome sites. Her love for what she wa doing was on full display. Recommend her highly

    Hicimos el tour con Nerea ; vino un poquito antes de tiempo cosa que todos agradecimos ya que estábamos todos. En la entrada al Foro y Palatino una pareja tuvo un pequeño problema con la entrada ya que un nombre no coincidía y no le dejaban pasar ( ya avisan en la web de que el documento de identificación tiene que coincidir con el nombre de la entrada ) , Nerea no podía hacer nada pero intentó darle las mejores soluciones posibles , muy bien por su parte. La visita fue muy productiva y amena; ya que no es fácil contar tantos hechos históricos y en tan poco tiempo ,que estemos todos muy atentos y nos quedemos con un hilo histórico suficiente para disfrutar de la visita y del gran Coliseo… Mereció la pena mucho . RECOMENDADO 100 %
