Not a huge amount of value from a guide on this occasion, but helpful to have some guidance

Melanie_D, Jun 2023

I can only rate this tour as average, because if I’d known we would be rushed through, I probably would’ve bought the tickets in advance and not bothered with a guide. This is not to criticise the guide, she was knowledgeable, and did her best to inform the group of what was happening. Particularly for Palatine, Hill and the forum, I felt that we rushed through, and I only got to see a fraction of what was on the ground. The colosseum is amazing but again, not my thing being one of 20,000 people a day who visit there. Next time, I will try to get a more exclusive experience and spend more time.

Sunny day at the colosseum

Alessandro was an excellent guide. He was attentive and showed us all the key parts of the colosseum and the roman forum.

Pretty good and informative

Jaqueline_D, May 2023

It was very nice and pleasant. We spent about 2 hours at the Colosseum and 45 minutes at the Forum. There are no bathroom stops inside the Colosseum so make sure to plan accordingly.

Mal, mal

Reservamos a las 10:00 de la mañana. Llegamos a las 09:45 y nos dicen que el grupo a salido. Que pasemos por oficina , allí nos dicen que nos pueden dar para otra hora pero serían 100€ mas por el cambio. Adelantaron la visita del grupo y pretenden hacernos pagar más. Al día siguiente, entramos en otro grupo, saliendo 25 minutos de retraso, esto provocó que todo el grupo casi no entra al coliseo por llegar tarde.
