Our guide was excellent he gave a lot of valuable and very interesting information we are a family with 3kids ages14,12,and9 and the kids really enjoyed the tour as well. As added value the tour included extract to Roman forum without a guide which we liked to see at our own pass but with a quick line entrance

I was apprehensive booking a tour, this thinking it would be rushed or we wouldn't understand the tour guide, I was happily wrong our tour guide ilaria was brilliant and the tour wasn't rushed, she told us so much information and gave us time to look and take photos, I totally recommend this to anyone visiting the colosseum.

We were well received at the agreed location. We got a fascinating tour of the colosseum. It was nice that we could avoid the long queue this way. It's a pity that the earphones were not always clear, so that at times the guide's explanation was somewhat lost.
