The Colosseum Arena Floor tour with Alessandro - Alessandro was friendly and extremely knowledgeable! He was great! He was efficient, but gave us plenty of time to see what we needed to see. Highly recommend him for these tours!

Colosseum a must see - Our guide, Dennis gave us the perfect blend of explaining the history and pointing out the sights. We are very happy to leave the Colosseum through the East entrance, with many wonderful pictures.

A memory of Rome - It was more than a 5! Luciana was an absolute wonderful tour guide. Her knowledge of the Colosseum was truly a gift to us. She gave us time to really soak in the beauty of it and the surroundings. She answered all questions that were asked and more. Loved how she interacted with all of us on the tour making it very special. Thank you Luciana for a beautiful memory of Rome!

Perfect for Families! - This was an amazing experience! Elizabetta was very knowledgeable and had answers to all our questions. She was also very family friendly and worked at our pace. We visited with our toddler and she took time to show her all the photos and engage her. When our daughter got a bit fussy waiting she let her play with her watch and kept sharing information with us. We would highly recommend.

Alessia gave us Easter chocolate! - Alessia was terrific! Fun, entertaining, knowledgeable and passionate! Colosseum so impressive. Issues with organization on Liv’s part—conflicting locations for meetup. Yesterday they gave us the wrong time for Vatican tour. Otherwise very good!
