Traveler reviews
Roxy was great!
Roxy is an art historian so knows her stuff on this tour. She was very accommodating to our interests and needs. It was a wonderful tour! If you don’t want to wait in LONG lines, it is totally worth it to do a private tour! Would do it again!
10/10! Highly recommend!
This was a MUST while in Rome. The private tour made it so easy to ask questions and to learn of so many things about the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Our guide made the day so much fun!
Excellent, with a suggestion.
Tour with Federico was excellent. Personable and knowledgeable. We covered three areas: the Coliseum, the Palatine Hill/Augustus residence and the Forum. I felt we could have spent more time on the Forum, less on the Augustus residence. It’s a lot to cover in a single tour. For future reference, the tour guide should ask how the time should be divided.
A Great Afternoon with Ribal
Ribal was our guide and did an exceptional job of giving us an overview of the history of the Colosseum and the surrounding area! We highly recommend this tour and had a great afternoon.
Excellent and informative!
This was a highlight of our trip to Rome! Alessandro was very knowledgeable and informative! He made the tour excellent!
