Traveler reviews
Amazing Experience
Booking was super easy, great price, and fast confirmation. Our tour guide was FABULOUS! We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this tour!
Well worth the few extra Euros for the best!
Knowledgeable, humorous and friendly. Group treated to much shorter lines and great stories. Keep your QR code and ID handy. It is a real time saver! Mario covered all the centuries with a store like he was there… with his Mother in Law!
Guide was very good, but the scope of services was too limited.
Our German guide Francesca was excellent, but the scope of the offer was sparse for the price ($618 for two). Only a 30-minute stay in the arena of the Colosseum. Total duration 60 minutes. The visit to the upper floors was not included; Francesca gave us some tips for the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. However, without the audio guide, it was less informative.
Amazing
Amazing experience. Our tour guide was fantastic. Best tour ever. You see everything you need to. No wasted time. Not too rushed. Everything was explained clearly.
Tour cancelled without starting
Tour was cancelled when we got to gate of Colosseum. Tour operator purchased wrong tickets. We were forced to wait on the 1.5 hour line to purchase tickets. Entire day ended up being lost.
