Sadness and disappointment

Mary_K, Jun 2026

We did not have an experience. We received confirmation earlier that we had tickets. We were not notified that our tickets were cancelled until we actually got to the Coliseum. Traveling all the way to Rome and this was the one thing we wanted to see. I thought Viator was a reputable company. To cancel and not let us know was inexcusable.

Our guide was excellent...

Ann_R, May 2025

Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable and it was a great insight to the Roman forum and the colosseum highly recommend this tour

It was a bit chaotic. ...

Mark_D, May 2025

It was a bit chaotic. Not easy to find the guide, times changes the night before. Once going, it was good. Guide (Amanda) was easy to understand and did a great job. Problem was the initial meeting and stress/chaos at the start (not just for me - for the whole group)

Response from Host, May 2025

Dear client, I'm so sorry for the chaotic situation. Actually sometimes this happen in a city like Rome. The most important thing is that Amanda, our guide, did a great job. She is so good.

This was an amazing tour...

Shainna_F, Mar 2025

This was an amazing tour and our guide, Virginia, was fabulous! We had three littles with us and she not only was patient and kind but even carried our youngest for parts of the walk and included them by name in her tour. We thoroughly enjoyed every part of this tour. Thank you so much!!

Ottima esperienza, guida...

Ottima esperienza, guida gentile che ha risposto in maniera chiara e precisa alle nostre domande e ha coinvolto nostro figlio di 7 anni, come in documentario girato dal vivo. Bravissima Federica
