Our tour guide was excellent, he was extremely knowledgeable, funny, personable and intelligent. He was a delight and we throughly enjoyed our time on this tour. He had pictures for comparison of before and after which helped to really understand the layout of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum. We highly recommend him and this tour.

Our tour was really great and our guide had a lot of fun particulates to offer about the colosseum - i especially liked his props - he used a book that showed before and now pics of the colosseum in relation to what we spoke about. I really enjoyed the guides knowledge and had a great time as an American on this tour. It always beats waiting on line for tickets and going unguided - definitely the best value out of all the tour sites i compared & i am pretty thoroughly always so I would def recommend.

Rosa our tour guide was professional and went above and beyond to go back in time to create an atmosphere that could best be described only by gladiators. We went into historical details which are little treasures and not there in history books. We walked, laughed and time travelled. This was an absolutely beautiful experience and if we had the time we would do it again and again. Thank you Rosa.
