Great tour, Highly recommend! - Loved this tour! Ivana was our guide and she took us to many monuments and piazzas such as the Spanish steps, Trevi fountain, the Pantheon, an aqua duct, and several other places. She even took us to her favorite gelato shop when we told her it was on our todo list. She taught us a lot and we found she does a dark side of Rome tour which we will book when we come back.

Disability access at Victor Emmanuel monument in Rome is excellent June 2025 - I cannot walk but wanted to see the views from the top of the Victor Emmanuel monument in Rome at the Piazza de Venezia where Mussolini’s balcony be seen. The disabled access is excellent and free if you enter by the door on the right hand side. I arrived on a mobility scooter but had to transfer into one of their wheelchairs to fit onto the stairlift. I left my scooter securely looked after in the foyer. The lift took me to the first level which can be seen in the photos. It was all marble and fully accessible with ramps. Threis a lovely cafe on that level where we had a fresh tuna panini. My partner (as my career pushing the wheelchair) and I then went into the glass elevator behind the cafe for free to the top level. WOW the views are indescribable. I would recommend this to anyone ina wheelchair, it’s amazing. We parked 10 minutes walk away to the left of the Bocca della Verita in a disabled space. The latter had a step down but my partner helped me and we got a photo putting our hands in the mouth!

The Beauty of Rome, and some secrets too... - Do you know the secret of the church of St. Ignatious? Neither did we. But Sarah, our tour guide on the "Dolce Vita" tour, not only told us, but was able to show us the awesome scene, right at the start of the tour!
We went on to learn a few more amazing secrets that I won't give away (including who just might have the best hot chocolate and gelato in the city), in addition to seeing some of the most iconic landmarks in the city and having our photo taken at them.
Definitely a great tour that I would recommend to anyone interested in seeing The Eternal City at night.

Amazing - If you are planning your trip to Rome you must book your private tour with Maximus tours, they are great, we booked the Colosseum and the Vatican. We asked to have our tour in Portuguese and they did a awesome job. Isabella was our guide at the Vatican the line was huge but we were able to skip the line she knows a lot didn't even feel like we were walking for 3 hours . At the Colosseum we had Ana also in Portuguese she was so nice amazing guide. We had 2 kids 9 and 3 years old the guide were so nice with our kids we recommend Maximus with our eyes close.

So good we booked 2 - Vatican & Colosseum - Vatican tour 1st with Christiana, she was wonderful and made it a really interesting few hours. Started at the Vatican Museum, walking through the ex popes rooms and apartments with paintings by Raffaello etc - just amazing and the amount of artwork and statues collected make it well worth seeing, you have to love Michaelangelo for what he has left us. The gardens were beautiful and the summer/winter palaces grand too. Made our way past all the tapestries, my favourite were the maps though, so accurate and colourful, finally led to the Sistine Chapel - the guards are a bit uptight to say the least shouting at everyone to be quiet, but the were so loud, ironic really! Memories that will stay with me for a long time, we were then guided towards the Basilica where we were free to visit on our own, another amazing space in a beautiful city. Next - Colosseum tour with Jamie (not one of the usual Maximus guides) but very informative also. Prepare to walk some distance from the Monument at Piazza Venezia up to the Colosseum, dodging groups of the young teenage girls (pickpockets), great time of year to go as the queues weren't too bad, be warned that people can stand in line in the sun for hours July/Aug & have been known to pass out and never make the tour! We started by taking the stairs up inside the Colosseum (lifts are available), what a sight to see once inside, very impressive even though its mainly recreated after several earthquakes and destruction over the centuries, who knew that people lived there until the 1930's - I didn't. Then wlked around to the Forum and walked up the hill to a viewing point with a great view of the surrounding temples, columns and architecture. Another wonderful day that we won't forget, well done Maximus Tours, money well spent.

Excellent Colosseum & Vatican Tours! - We had booked the Colosseum Tour and Vatican Tour for our vacation in Rome and were very happy we did! Both of these tours were excellent and well worth the money. We had Patrizia as our Vatican tour guide and she was very nice and knowledgeable about the history of the Vatican and the city of Rome. Our guide for the Colosseum tour was Dani and she as well was very friendly and informative about the history of Rome. Both guides were able to answer any questions we had about the history of the city and monuments we were visiting. Even though you can't cover everything in just 3 hours on these tours, it prepared us with relevant and useful information so we could go back by ourselves and walk at our own pace. We highly recommend these tours to anyone visiting Rome!

La Dolce Vita Tour - I could not think of a better way to start our vacation to Rome than with this 2.5 hour tour. It was our first time in the city and Daniela provided an outstanding walking tour of central Rome which included many fountains, piazzas, and squares. The tour started at 6:00 in the evening which made it magical. It was also so helpful for us as she gave us great tips on getting around Rome and pointed out some of her favorite restaurants and shops as we were walking from site to site. We also stopped for gelato along the way. Daniela was a wonderful guide as well! Well worth it and would recommend to anyone going to Rome!
