Very well organised and presented. No complaints whatsoever. The Tour Leader was excellent, informative and friendly.

It was a great visit and more than enough to do with kids. They enjoy it very much and it is the perfect time for them. The guide, Angelica, was amazing, we arrived 5 minutes late and she called us and shared her location to meet her. We really recommend it!
Ryan_M, Sep 2025

It was a very good tour and the tour guide was very knowledgable and fun. The build up to the tour wasn’t great. I booked a 4.45pm tour and when I landed in Rome around midday I had missed calls and texts stating I had not been at the tour and asking where I was. I Contacted the tour and stated I had a 4.45 ticket and sent them a copy. They said they had a Spanish tour at 4.45 and not English and to join the tour the next morning. I explained this was not possible as I had another tour booked.
We attended the original tour I booked and it was not easy to find but the tour operator was helpful in guiding us there by text. On arrival the tour was explained in English and Spanish so we were very pleased on the whole.
Just a shame it brought unnecessary stress to the beginning of our holiday.
We would however recommend the tour as the guide was fantastic! Thank you

Do not buy this excursion through here. tickets can be purchased at the stadium itself for 18EURO /11EURO for child, paying this amount advertised here make me feel sick, how it could be even allowed. I paid £130 comparing to 58EURO on door( you still have guide if you buy ticked on door) - but i seen nothing what advertised on VIATOR, as stadium is very busy and access to changing rooms, stadium, entry door - denied, full oof boxes for concerts, look awfull. What you see on profile photo of this excursion - you wont see in reality...there...and taking into account extraordinary price - its just awful feeling The worst experience i ever had and by far i feel ripped off. I asked for refund -and Viator is looking into it, trust this be passed on to tour guide back in Rome to ensure there are no travelers like me, paying soo much for literally nothing, just seeing seats frm very top row - that is all i seen, not even grass, not even 1m of grass i seen - my kids were extremely disappointing -they class Rome stadium the worst they seen in their life, and they visited few. Awful experience, hope to get some refund, if not will be reporting this to Ombudsman.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.
We would like to clarify a few important points. While it may be possible to purchase tickets at the stadium desk on certain days, availability is not guaranteed. Our offer includes not just entrance, but a guided tour service with a dedicated guide, support, and coordination, which are all included in the price. Additionally, when you book through an aggregator like Viator, a significant portion of the payment goes to the platform—not directly to us as the service provider.
Regarding access to specific areas of the stadium, please understand that during the summer concert season, certain parts of the stadium may be closed with little or no notice. Unfortunately, we are not informed in advance about such restrictions. Nonetheless, we still pay the full cost of entry tickets and the guide’s services.
We truly regret the inconvenience caused and understand your disappointment. As previously discussed via messages, we even offered you a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill, which you chose not to accept. At this point, we are uncertain how else to assist, but we remain open to resolving the issue in a fair way.
We appreciate your understanding and hope your future travel experiences are more enjoyable.
Best regards

Very nice guide lots of history not enough soccer information and unfortunately we were there the day before a concert so lots of comultion
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the guide and the historical insights. We're sorry there wasn't more football-related content and that your visit coincided with concert preparations, which caused some disruption. We appreciate your understanding and hope to welcome you again under better conditions!
Suzy_H, Jul 2025
We were very disappointed. Messaged a few days before to say the time had moved from 4.45 to 4.30.. on the day we were called an hour before to say it had moved to 4pm. Luckily we were in the area.
Struggled to find the meeting point.
The tour itself was very rushed, a singer was performing the next day so we could not see the pitch and one of the changing rooms was affected.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
We sincerely apologize for your experience. Due to the concert scheduled for the 17th, the stadium unexpectedly applied access restrictions on the 16th — the day of your visit — without informing us in advance. Unfortunately, this led to delays, including the guide’s late arrival. Please note that this is not something that happens regularly, and we deeply regret the inconvenience it caused. We are always working to improve our service and communication, especially in situations beyond our control.
Richard_W, Jul 2025
Completely over priced. Said skip the cue but there was no cue anyway. The tour was walk around the grounds for 30 mins before the stadium then basically into the briefing room watch a 20 second video then go in the dressing rooms, about 2 mins in each , into the corporate seats and finished . They slid open the doors to the walk out tunnel only 30cm so you had to peak through and you couldn’t go in there. We couldn't see really. We were stood around for ages in common areas but then we were rushed through the bits we wanted to see. it was really disorganised. We should have just go to general admission and walked around ourselves . Really disappointed.
Rasha_A, Jul 2025
The tour was very boring and its not worth it the wait!! Not recommended at all. Its overpriced and not fun at all..
Olle_N, Jul 2025
We booked the "Olympic Stadium Tour Express - Skip the Line" for July 8, 2025, through Viator, hoping for a smooth and enjoyable experience. What we got instead was significant stress and a highly unprofessional start to our tour.
Despite our booking confirmation stating one meeting point, we received a last-minute change via WhatsApp to a different location. On the day of the tour, conflicting instructions from the ticket office and the guide led to us being sent in circles, wasting precious time.
When we finally arrived at the correct (and revised) meeting point, well before the scheduled start time, the guide greeted us with a sarcastic and publicly humiliating comment ("we can now start, finally"), making us feel entirely at fault in front of the entire group. This was completely unacceptable and ruined the beginning of what should have been a pleasant experience.
While the tour itself was okay, the unprofessional behavior of the guide and the company's inadequate communication beforehand made for a very uncomfortable and embarrassing situation.
To make matters worse, when I complained to Viator about this distressing experience and requested a refund for the poor service and unprofessional conduct, I received a generic reply stating they were "unable to offer a refund" and vaguely apologizing for me not being able to "fulfill my travel plans" – completely misrepresenting what happened.
This shows a complete disregard for customer satisfaction and a failure to address legitimate complaints about their service delivery. I highly recommend avoiding this tour operator and Viator for any future bookings if you expect clear communication, professional service, and respectful customer support.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Sorry for not meeting your expectations. Let us clarify the situation: due to preparation work at the stadium, we had to change the meeting point and informed you clearly about the new location and time one day before the tour. The new meeting point is only a 4-minute walk away from the original.
Regarding our guide’s conduct, we apologize if it came across as rude—it was not intended that way. We will work on improving this.
Best regards,
Vipinitaly

Very polite. They new everything about the stadium and the Era around. We recommended it. We have an amazing day!
TheaNrgaard_E, Jul 2025
The guide was very nice. We loved that it was a quick tour, with all the most interesting places included.
Kathryn_N, Jul 2025
During the summer months, concerts are on at the stadium. This means you limited access to pitch and no access to changing rooms and inside of stadium.
Tour operators know this but do not make clear and still charge full amount. Tour guide we had, had no knowledge of stadium or football. We spent longer outside the stadium than inside.
I contacted the operator to express how disappointed we were, after many conversations via what's app they said that they state this in terms and conditions but it isn't clear.
The operators clearly know they are running a tour with limited access and are still charging full price.
DO NOT BOOK!
Steve_W, Jul 2025
We booked the express tour of the stadium as we were limited for time. The day before I was messaged by the tour operator to say that we had been “Upgraded” to another tour to include the marble stadium and other parts. Our guide was disorganised. We started late standing in the baking sun waiting for radios. We wandered aimlessly around gardens listening to stories about how he son plays PlayStation and runs over old ladies in cars. The tour was simply awful.. we stood for 25 minutes outside of the stadium after the gardens waiting for our entry time. We had been on the tour for an hour already. They did bring us a bottle of water because of how hot it was. Nobody knew what was going on! The stadium itself was being setup for a concert so we actually didn’t see a lot. Avoid this tour!
Rachael_P, Jul 2025
We had a couple of hiccups - the day of experience was changed and then the day before the tour the time of the experience was brought forward by 15 mins. However all the communication regarding this was efficient and everything worked out well. The tour was great. My son had wanted to visit because of the football being played here but the rest of the Olympic site is fascinating. We didn’t get to walk on the pitch as we were in concert season but sat in the stands and got a good feel for it. Also the explanations of the history and mosaics on the way in were fascinating. Would recommend!

I booked this tour because of my sports fanatic son and wasn’t expecting much from it myself. I was wrong. The tour from the obelisk to the inside of the stadium was very interesting, our guide was very knowledgeable. Equally, inside the stadium the tour was interesting and well organised, even for those who are not football fans. The only shame was that there was a concert planned for the evening of our tour date, this limited photo opportunities inside the football stadium as we had to avoid taking photos of construction equipment. These things happen and it didn’t have too much of an impact. Would recommend the experience.

As it was June there was less to see as parts of the stadium were closed off. Enjoyed the first part of the tour the history of the stadium. Tour around the stadium was basic but enough to entertain teenagers.

Our guide Daniele made the experience very enjoyable and entertaining. The tour not only serves to visit the stadium, but also delves into its history. There were no crowds, so it was very comfortable to tour the stadium. Highly recommended.

Everyone should do it. You don't need to be passionate about football. The stadium has history of the world.
