Traveler reviews
Remarkable Experience
Truly incredible experience. Our tour guide was full of knowledge about all aspects of the Colosseum and Rome. My wife and I will never forget our trip to the Colosseum.
Brilliant guide and experience
Janina was the most knowledgeable and engaging guide we could have wished for. She effortlessly shared details, weaved in with excellent story telling. We loved it having done some pre-reading and feeling like we got excellent insights, details and history lessons alongside archaeological facts and context - while our kids appreciated her story telling and being able to get involved. It felt so real and a wonderful 3 hours. Thanks Janina, we had a brilliant time and could not recommend You more!
A lot of walking on...
A lot of walking on unstable surfaces but the guide provided plenty of opportunities to be in the shade, extremely hot. Guide super knowledgeable and kept it interesting.
Laura (not Croft) was AWESOME!
Laura (not Croft as she would say) was AWESOME! She is very knowledgeable and took time to explain everything and answer any questions anyone had. She was also very pleasant, funny, and courteous. I highly recommend her!
Wonderful tour!
