    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 %

    We had Tiberius. The tour was poor and disjointed. He didn’t provide a good history of the forum and palatine hill. The colosseum was a better but he was all over the place. The only tour where I haven’t come back with more knowledge than when I started.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our guide Tiberio consistently receives excellent reviews for his deep knowledge and engaging approach. However, we understand that every guide has a unique style, which may not resonate with everyone.
      That said, we take great care in organizing our tours to ensure they are thorough and informative, covering all the key historical and cultural aspects that a visitor would expect to learn. Even when the style may not be to everyone’s taste, we find it hard to believe that nothing at all from the experience leaves a lasting impression.
      We appreciate your thoughts and will certainly take them into consideration to continue improving our services.

    Tuvimos como guía a Sara, todo super bien y muy bien explicado. Es una de las visitas 100% recomendadas en Roma!

    This is an excellent tour. It was exact information needed in a perfectly timed pace. Our tour guide was knowledgeable. She took extra time with our kids, which made them feel included and made it more impactful. I highly recommend this tour.

    Tiberius was wonderful! His knowledge and passion for Roman history far exceeded my expectations and having a guide navigate through the forum and the large crowd was definitely worth the price. I highly recommend this tour.

    Tuvimos como guia a Miriam, la cual estuvo de 10. Nos explicaba todo con mucho detalle y entusiasmo, se nota que domina y disfruta con ello. Muy simpática, divertida y un tour excelente. Si vuelvo repetiría con ella.

    Excelente tour desde todo punto de vista: facilidad para reservar, excelente comunicación previa para entregar detalles del punto de encuentro, los horarios del tour se cumplieron a cabalidad y la guía muy amena y conocedora de detalles relacionados con el coliseo y su historia. Muy buena experiencia, totalmente recomendada.

    The tour is a must for tourists who want to truly understand the rich history and grandeur of ancient Rome. Natalina was an exceptional guide, knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging. She brought the Colosseum and Roman Forum to life with fascinating stories, historical insights, and a genuine love for the subject.

    Our guide was fantastic! So much knowledge he shared. He kept the tour moving at a good pace and kept us engaged. Well done! Thank you!

    Excelente tour de la mano de Sonia para el recorrido del coliseo con la arena, muy buena guía se nota la pasión por la historia, se toma tiempo para explicar sin apuros además da tiempo para recorrer y tomar fotos de forma libre sin apresurar y lo digo por experiencia con otros tours. Más que recomendable. Un saludo desde Argentina y Venezuela.

    Fantastic tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable , i think without her it would have been easy to get overwhelmed with the size of the site. Queues look long for the security but it moves quickly.

    super recomendables todo perfecto

    Very good and interesting tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and patient!

    This tour was a great experience. Our guide Toni was very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the coliseum.
    If there was one thing to improve it would be meeting our guide. There are so many tour groups meeting at the same location there was a lot of confusion. It would have been helpful if our guide had something to identify them as a representative of the tour company. Otherwise 5 star

      Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and found Toni (Giuseppe) knowledgeable. We appreciate your helpful feedback about the meeting point — we understand it can get crowded, and we’re working on improving visibility for our guides. We’re glad the experience was still a 5-star one for you!

    Espectacular y muy simpática

    We greatly enjoyed our tour of the Colosseum with Cecilia. She was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, friendly and patient. A true gem! We highly recommend.

    Un buen tour, sin embargo, quizás debido a la cantidad de personas que rodean el área visitada, no llegué a conectar con la explicación durante todo el recorrido.
    Demasiadas comparativas con Gladiator (para los no fans del cine).
    Gracias por el tour Fabio!
