Colosseum Tour with guide and skip the line. - Exceptional Guide. Giovanni was very knowledgeable, polite and was able to get us around the crowds with no problem. We highly recommend you choose this group and ask for Giovanni.

Great self-guided tour and skip the line - A really great way to see the Coliseum and skip the lines. You do need cellular signal to use the web app.

Not well organized - Entry time to the colosseum was changed a few hours before the time booked, and the new time had no host and minimal instructions about how to get in. We also missed another tour scheduled (and paid for) afterwards because of the delay. Recommend going to the Colisseum with a guided tour instead.

Tour guide issues - We ouldnot find our tour guide at the meeting location on the directions we were give. We arrived at 1030 for our 1100 tour. We asked several tour guides in the same place and no one could help us.

Viator Major Disappointment!! - Person we were supposed to meet was not in the meeting place. Walked around for an hour looking for someone. Finally called via Tore and found out they could resubmit us. The passes to get in. Got those, but never got audio so didn’t know what anything was about. Via Tore does not want to refund any of our money. Was a dream to go visit the Colosseum and couldn’t hear anything about it.

No Show and TAKES your Money and Runs - We had a scheduled tour and were told to meet 15 minutes early...which we complied. What we did not know is that the tour operator had sent an EMAIL hours before the tour was to start indicating they were CHANGING the start time and delaying it an hour. We were traveling internationally and NOT in a position to check out email. The operator should have sent a person to stand in the designated location to inform arriving paid tourist of this time change. Keep in mind, tour operators do not buy tickets until they get a head count when people arrive. We asked for a refund and we denied. I will be hard pressed to use Tripadvisor again. I will never use this tour operator and will let all my friends know. I am also circulating this on any and all social media platforms.

Would Rate No Stars if Possible - We booked this months in advance and the company one hour after our scheduled tour to notify us of the cancellation. Extremely inconsiderate. Would not mess around with this company. Find better

AVOID!!! Overcharged for nothing!!!! - I’d give this zero dollars if possible. WAYYY OVERPRICED. It’s 20 euros more than the same ticket everyone else gets and all you get is some random guy texts you a link to a free app anyone can download. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS CRAP.
