Extremely informative tour. There is so much to see and learn about the area around the Colosseum that we did not know about. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared her experience and insights with us. It is so much better to visit a site like this with an established tour guide than to simply see it on your own. Thanks for a great experience to kick off our Rome and southern Italy trip!
Knowing that the Colosseum's layers became a real story for you is exactly why we do what we aim to do. It’s about turning a famous landmark into a personal discovery. Consider Rome just the 'antipasto', now that your curiosity is wide awake, Southern Italy is going to be a feast. Enjoy the change of light, the wilder landscapes, and the incredible food waiting for you down there. Grazie mille for letting us open the first chapter of your Italian diary!
Elena was amazing! Very courteous and knowledgeable. Very focused on what we wanted. Absolutely beautiful tour.
Thank you so much 🌸 I’m truly happy to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Elena — she is indeed wonderful, and I’ll be sure to pass your feedback along to her. It means a lot to us that you felt taken care of and that the experience was beautiful for you. Looking forward to welcoming you again for your next adventure! ✨
What a beautiful visit and enjoyable tour this was. My partner and I were visiting at the end of a 2 week honeymoon . We booked a later tour after having scheduling issues with a different touring company. We are very happy that led us to Bellissima. Michaela was our guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable and very clearly consumed with interest in the architectural history of the Colosseum and the surrounding sites. She kept us engaged throughout the tour, answered all of our questions, and really went above and beyond in several regards: she acted as our personal photographer taking us to all the best photo sites, she provided visual guides using a tablet as we progressed through the site, and at the end of the trip she even gave us a long list of recommendations for where to grab a bite or apertivo in the area after our long day walking about the Colosseum, I can’t recommend this tour enough. Book and you will be happy you did !
Thank you so much for your beautiful words – what a joy to read them! It’s wonderful to know that your tour with Michaela was such a highlight at the end of your honeymoon. Sometimes, chance leads to the best encounters, and we’re so glad that the change of plans brought you to Bellissima. We’ll be sure to share your kind feedback with Michaela, who will be thrilled to hear it. We wish you both many more memorable travels together, and we hope to welcome you again someday! Warm regards, Valentina & the Bellissima Team
Many thanks to Beliana for this beautiful, informative experience. The private tour was perfect and I recommend it to anyone who does not want to trot behind 20 others with headphones.
Exhaustive and accurate information, all accompanied by a pleasant note of humor Valentina.
