Beautiful - Great tour. Was quick and knowledgeable. Our tour guide was well learned in the history of the building. I had no idea how grand the colosseum was in its heyday. It’s a beautiful structure to go into and really see its architecture.

Learning all about the ancient history of the Colosseum - We had an amazing tour guide that walked us through all ancient history through the Colosseum and even down on the main grounds. Having the wired connection for your ear, was one of the best things due to the amount of people in the Colosseum. It makes it much easier to hear About all the history.

Might have been good but… - We booked this tour but ended up on the wrong tour which had a lot more walking than we wanted. We lost our guide in the Forum. I became ill and we had to ask other tour guides for assistance. Not sure why we ended up in the longer tour but even if we had been able to take that tour we would not have been able to keep up. My advice is to double check with the operators that you are on the tour you wanted.

Not with it!! - I wouldn’t book this. They moved the time we were supposed to be there and wouldn’t refund our money. It also says that they can do that in the fine print. Instead just book directly through the Colosseum.
