Great tour - Great and informative tour! Our guide Deborah was very kind, thorough, helpful, and knowledgeable. She held a good pace and led us through a very crowded area. What could have felt overwhelming was not because of our guid. Her English was hugely appreciated! Thank you, Deborah!

Bumpy start that Francesca turned into positive experience! - What started out as a slightly negative experience as the tour operator cookie not find our reservations originally was turned around by our tour guide Francesca. Francesca took her time explaining historic details and fun facts about the colosseum, palatine hill and the Roman forum. She was not only very knowledgeable but easy to understand and funny. Would definitely recommend tour to others!

Interesting history - Interesting. Would have enjoyed more time in Colosseum instead of Palantine Hill and Forum. Gladiator gate and floor was interesting. Did not have Underground Colosseum and would select that over Gladiator gate next time. Tour guide shared interesting history and legends.
