Beautiful family visit to the Colosseum and Palatine Hill

I don’t see the value added compared to buying directly on the official site. The person at meeting point was very kind and gave us good tips.

Recommend this Tour

Porto (Peter) was a wonderful guide! He was a driver AND guide as he taught us a lot about what we were seeing and experiencing. Definitely recommend this tour if you only have a short time in Rome. We enjoyed the air conditioned car on a hot summer day too!

Forum Pass Super Review

Our trip to the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum was incredible! Booking through Viator made it easy to get our tickets and our guide, Sak, was incredibly informative and helpful. The amount of time allotted for each sight was perfect and the admission fee was well worth it! Overall, I would highly recommend booking tickets for the self guided tour through Viator.

Fair Price.

It was worth it as the best alternative price once the primary seller sold out. Still, the service was comparable to just buying the tickets directly.

Great host very kind and informative

Our host was waiting for us when we arrived and waited for us for the second part of the tour. He was very kind and informative telling us to make sure we were ok before starting our second part of the tour telling us he would wait while we had something to eat and before commencing the second part and he was good to his word waiting in the same place when we arrived back after refreshments for part two
