Colosseum & Forum kid friendly Tour - Christina was our guide and she was fantastic! She kept the 5 children engaged on this tour the whole time... playing games and telling stories. Wish we had more time with her. Highly recommend!

Execellent Tour for the money - Brian was a great tour guide. Sean, the owner was helpful and insightful about the area and how to get around, recommended restaurants which were all great. In a city where you not sure who to trust these are guys are very trustworthy.

Excellent Private Tour - We got super lucky, no one else had booked at the same time so we ended up with a private tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum. Our guide Brian was fantastic and truly represented for us the history behind the experience of attending an event during the height of the Roman Empire. We did have a hard time finding the "tourist info" meeting point, however, but the operator called me on my cell and helped guide us to where we needed to be.

Small group of 8, no headset required and all the better for it.<br/> Colosseum itself is stunning, as is the Forum<br/> Definitely a highlight of the holiday</p>

Tour of the Colosseum and Imperial Fora - Our guide for the tour of the Colosseum and Forum on Sunday 17December was absolutely excellent. Many thanks to him, Shaun for making the arrangements and Osman for originally telling us about City Lights Tours. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will use City Lights when we next return to Rome

She was extremely knowledgeable and very interesting. The tour was conducted at the right pace for the Group and everyone appeared to really enjoy the experience. Sean, who assisted in the admin of the tour even sprinted off to get us some water before we went into the Forum.<br/> Would I recommend - yes definitely.</p>

They are all true ambassadors for Rome ( though not all local) and help make you feel you're in good hands. Mario's ability to bring the history alive in front of you helped summarise centuries. Book them today!</p>
