This tour was amazing. Our guide was so funny and engaging. We left every minute of it. Hundred percent recommend.
The tour lady was fantastic and clearly loves Roman history and the Colosseum. The problem was that it was supposed to include the dungeons but it didn't so we only saw one level and then could only go up to 2nd level ourselves. Not happy as I only booked this tour to go down in the dungeons. Very dissapointed and expensive without going downstairs to dungeons.
The tour was amazing our tour guide Fe was AWESOME. She is so funny and kept us completely entertained. She knew her stuff. The tour was amazing . This is my second time touring the Coliseum but by far the best. Thank Fe for a wonderful tour. Thanks Ken
Felicity is indeed a brilliant guide, thank you for praising her enthusiasm and dedication and for choosing our tours!
Our guide was fantastic and had time to answer every poses questions. Well paced to accommodate all of us. Recommended.
Thank you, Eduard, for enjoying your Small Group Tour of Colosseum With Dungeons!
Good value tour considering the excellent guide and time at over 3 hours. I would say that you only as actually see a tiny part of the Colosseum underground however as most of it is covered for renovation work. Being on the main floor of the Colosseum was amazing though. And the forum is a very interesting place to visit. Take lots of water and avoid August if you can as it's just unbearably hot!
Thank you very much for this lovely review!
The attraction itself is really magnificent and to see it from the bottom to the top is really great experience ! Surroundings and the scenery and stories told by the guide were super. Diego (our guide) knows a lot and was really good in giving his knowledge even to the teens. Recommended :)
Thank you for kindly taking the time to review our services.
We took this tour in late June, and it was meltingly hot (100+ degrees). Our guide, Dennis, never missed a beat and talked almost non-stop for three + hours about the history of the Colosseum and various parts of the Forum and Palatine Hill. He was incredibly knowledgeable (readily knew the answer to every single question) and patiently answered the questions of my 8 year old. Was a bit disappointed with the tour part of the dungeons, but I understand that wasn’t the company’s fault. Would absolutely book with the, again if we ever came back. Worth every penny.
Thank you, Michelle! We are sorry you were not entertained by the Dungeons, perhaps their dark history makes them less enjoyable. Thank you for kindly sharing your impression about the tour guide as well. It is all very rewarding to read!
This tour was very worth the money it was very interesting and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. Just make sure u arrive at the meeting point a bit early because we thought the time on the ticket was the meeting time luckily we got ther 10 mins early so we didn’t miss anything.
Thank you very much for this beautiful review!
We did this great tour with Flavia! We are very glad we did not try to do the colosseum or Palatine hill on our own. The skip the line really was a skip the line as we entered through a special entrance for our group. We saw all of the colosseum and palatine hill. Flavia was excellent and very very informative and fun. If you want to say you "did" Rome... this tour is it! We got radios to listen to Flavia throughout our tour. The day is hot and lots of walking including stairs and hills, so come prepared with water and and having eaten. There are a couple stops for water fountains and 1 for bathroom but i recommend you do all of this before the tour. There are lots of people trying to sell you tours/tix/eyc...so its very relaxing to have all the tickets taken care of ahead of time rather than hot crowd.
Thank you Sarah for taking the time to review our Small Group Tour of Colosseum With Dungeons! it is indeed very relaxing to have everything ready without wasting hours and hours in the heat waiting in line. I am very happy you loved your tour and I hope you took many wonderful pictures!
Great tour of Coliseum and Roman Forum and our guide Renata did an amazing job of keeping it interesting. A doctorate level of knowledge presented in a way that was informative and fun. Highly recommend but make sure you use Google maps to find the place, it's tucked into a small side road near the Coliseum and easy to miss.
Thank you for kindly sharing your opinion about our services and about your tour guide Renata. We are very happy you had a wonderful time!
