Loved it!

My wife and I had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Lars, made this "our" tour from the very beginning, and he was very informative during all of our stops at the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and the Colosseum. The "skip the line" feature of this private tour made us feel like VIP's, and we were able to see some amazing sites. We highly recommend this tour.

Colosseum Arena Express Guided Tour

Francesca our Tour Guide was fantastic, so much knowledge about the Colosseum. She was bright and bubbly and made it fun. Appreciated her folder with photos and illustrations to enhance her explanation of various things we saw etc. She also accompanied us into the Roman Forum & Palatine Hill and explained briefly about that. We had no wait time and went straight through despite the long lines. All very organised by this Company - meeting place was clear. Also found the ear pieces very good and we were all able to hear Francesca clearly. A small group of 14 was definitely the best way to go.

Amazing tour with the best guide I can think of!

We had a wonderful experience with Touriks and our guide Susi from A to Z. We came to the Touriks office in Rome because we were looking for a short-termed private tour in German. They were extremely helpful and managed to organize the tour we wanted for the next morning. Susi, our Austrian tour guide, met us in front of the colosseum and took us around for a 75 minutes tour. She was simply amazing! She was competent, kind, funny and so much fun to be with. Plus she has a wonderful way to engage the kids, who in our case really loved her and clung to her lips (they are 8 and 6 yes old). We all had a great time and highly recommend this private experience over a larger group, esp. when traveling with smaller kids.
