    A good tour if you’re visiting Rome for the first time. I reccomend buying a tour like this, cause there’s not a lot of information at the attractions itself. The tour is quite long, but very interesting and informational. The tour guide was experienced and very nice. Everything’s understandable with the earpiece, and her English was very good.

    This was such an amazing guided tour of the Colosseum, Palatine & Forum! our guide, Lorenzo, was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable about Roman history & history in general. He was also quite funny & personable. My daughter & I absolutely LOVED our tour. I highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Rome!

    The different language groups were well organised at the meeting point, despite lots of people milling about. Our guide, Simona, was welcoming , started our tour on time and provided clear instructions about entry, security etc. Her English was excellent, she took care of her group (19 of us), was extremely knowledgeable and welcomed questions and comments. The audio system worked well so that she didn't have to shout and we didn't have to struggle to keep near her. She provided a tremendous amount of historical information about both the Forum and the Colosseum. Just wish I could remember more of it! It was then good to have time at the end to spend on our own in the Colosseum to marvel at it, take photos etc.
