Traveler reviews
Great colosseum tour
We spent a wonderful few hours with Katarina viewing the collosseum and its arena, along with the roman forum and palatine hill. As an archeologist she gave us a sensible amount of valid information, and made it all relaxing and fun. Would highly recommend Katarina and the early start tour/Liv. Michele and Rebecca, UK

Wonderful Tour
Wonderful tour and fantastic guide.
Francesca - best tour guide!
We took several private tours throughout Rome as a group of eight, but our Colosseum tour with Francesca Kind far exceeded every other tour we experienced - and that was entirely because of Francesca! She was incredibly sweet, genuine, knowledgeable, and wonderful with everyone in our group, especially our teenagers. She kept them engaged by asking questions and making the history come alive. Because of her warm and engaging personality, they truly loved the tour and everything they learned. Francesca made a genuine effort to get to know all of us and even learned everyone’s names! She went above and beyond by helping us make restaurant reservations as well. It was clear that she truly cared about making our entire experience in Rome special. Francesca is someone our family will never forget. We feel incredibly lucky to have met her and sincerely hope we have the chance to see her again someday. If you are booking a tour of the Colosseum, ask for Francesca - you will be so glad you did!
Unforgettable Colosseum Visit with LivTours
I booked multiple LivTours for my family's first time in Rome and am SO glad I did. Giorgio was an incredible guide - a passionate historian, personable, funny, and generous with his time and attention to all of our questions. He pointed out details we would have never thought to look at twice. My family of five walked away from the experience with a deep appreciation for the history of the Colosseum thanks to Giorgio.
