Do not book this tour. We were never able to find the tour guide and get audio sets. You can buy timed tickets at the counter close to the entrance for much cheaper.

We didn’t receive the QR code. We had to call twice and nobody was there. We couldn’t read anything about the history of the place

The guide was on time handed over our guide book and made sure we knew where we going. Booking was easy and we received emails and message reminders. Thank you

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Ancient Rome Unveiled: Colosseum with audioguide.
The Colosseum has so many stories to tell, and we’re glad the audioguide helped bring that history to life for you. It was a pleasure helping you navigate such an iconic piece of Roman history.
We hope the rest of your time in Italy is just as magical. Safe travels!

This was the most disorganised tour we have ever been on. The tour guides did not arrive and it took 2 hours for them to find one. By this time more groups had arrived and our group of no more than 20 turned into 60. We had organised an early start to beat the heat of the day but instead followed the guide in our group of 60 from ticket box to ticket box to get our tickets. We ended up leaving the tour early as it was very poor and when we did there were only 10 people left out of the 60. We paid for 7 people and was the biggest waste of money and time unfortunately.

We had taken this thinking we would be offered a guided tour of everything and instead we were offered a book about the Colosseum as a guide. We got ripped off.

Muchas gracias por hacernos llegar sus comentarios. Lamentamos de todo corazón su decepción; nuestra meta es que cada cliente disfrute al máximo y nos entristece saber que no fue así en su caso. Parece que hubo un malentendido con el formato del tour, ya que este paquete específico está diseñado como una experiencia autoguiada que incluye un libro informativo y una audioguía. Es evidente que no logramos comunicar esto con claridad y le pedimos una sincera disculpa por la confusión. Valoramos mucho que nos haya elegido y nos encantaría hablar personalmente con usted para buscar una solución. Por favor, escríbanos a customer-care@italypasstours.com

La guida era preparatissima e ci ha trasportato nel mondo dei Romani. Nessuno ha perso l'interesse durante le tre ore di visita. Neanche il nostro bambino di 10 anni! La miglior maniera di visitare il Colosseo e il foro romano. Grazie a Italy pass tour ma soprattutto a Vinceza.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Grazie mille per le tue bellissime parole! Siamo felici che il tour vi sia piaciuto e che anche il vostro bambino si sia divertito; sappiamo che mantenere l'interesse dei più piccoli per tre ore non è sempre facile, ma Vincenza è davvero fantastica in questo. Saremo felici di trasmettere i vostri complimenti a lei. Speriamo di rivedervi presto a Roma!
