Traveler reviews
Great Simple Tour!
Marco was wonderful. Engaging, fun, smart, and he really took the time to explain the different perspectives of how the colessiym has been portrayed for years! He's great with kids!
Efficient and memorable!
Email instructions were clear and detailed for meeting location and the Liv Tour guides were easy to spot and communicative upon arrival! Sandro was our guide and covered a lot of information in the short time we had. We got a great “taste” of the Colosseum, had questions answered and got to see everything we wanted! Sandro was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. Highly recommend a guide to introduce you to the history of the colosseum.
Great expression tour
We took our two kids (13 and 10). This was the perfect tour as we went first thing in the morning (to escape the heat) and any more time would have lost our kids. Denis was great and our kids even noted that he spoke directly to him. Great tour. Covered everything we’d want.
Great time and Catherine is a great guide!
Catherine was a great guide with lots of knowledge! Great experience for the price. 2.5-3 hours and she did a great job highlighting key aspects while also keeping us in the much needed shade! Highly recommend this experience!
Entertaining Colosseum Tour
We had a fantastic tour with Ribal! Very detailed information presented in an easy to understand and entertaining way.
