Traveler reviews
Relaxing and fun group tour experience
Good balance of learning the history of Rome at the catacombs and exploring the main attractions in the city. Appreciated they made it easy to get to and explore the catacombs, with a pleasant drive back to the colosseum. The colosseum was sold out that day, and we just wanted right in with the tickets provided.
Kristina was wonderful...
Kristina was wonderful and informative. The ear buds were clear and easy to keep in my ear. After the catacombs and forum, the ticket to the palisade and the rest of the area was good for 24 hrs but only a one time entry that could be split in two days as it is a lot of walking.
We thought we were doing the...
We thought we were doing the Colosseum basements when it was the St. Callixtus catacombs that we did, and no guide for the Colosseum.
I think for the money,...
I think for the money, you can’t pack the vans with so many people and then have no air on a hot day. It was just completely unreasonable. The premium charged over the ticket prices is clearly for the transportation. They also did not work through the colosseum closure very well. Poor communication. Two stars because the catacomb tour guide was great.
