Travelers should have a moderate physical fitness level
A dress code is required to enter places of worship and selected museums. No shorts or sleeveless tops allowed. Knees and shoulders MUST be covered for both men and women. You may risk refused entry if you fail to comply with these dress requirements
Please provide the full names of all travelers when booking. Failure to present a voucher with all travelers' full names at the ticket office prior to entry may result in denied entry to the Colosseum and Roman Forum.

Please note: you'll be advised about the tour start time only after booking, you can leave a preference about morning or afternoon and we will try ( according to availability) to set the preferred time.
READ CAREFULLY: Because of the growing popularity of the current pope Francis and his intense activity in organising mass events in the Vatican some areas might get closed last minute without previous notice. This has already happened this year and can happen again during you Vatican tour: the Sistine chapel and/or the Basilica of Saint Peter might not be accessible. In case of such events our tour guide will provide you with a valuable alternative focusing the tour inside the Vatican museums.
Each traveler must present a valid passport or ID document that matches the name provided at the time of booking for successful entry to the Colosseum and Roman Forum.
Please note due to the Jubilee, the Basilica might not be accessible as part of the tour. Unfortunately, we know that very last minute. In any case, you can go there after the tour, queueing.

Best tours we’ve had in Rome

Joyce_H, Oct 2025

Wonderful experience both days! Paola was our guide the first day - so knowledgeable, articulate, and engaged our 3 kids. Claudia was our guide through vatican city and gave the perfect balance of history, religion and anecdotes. She also was warm and engaging with our kids and gave them ‘tasks’ to look for things inside the Basilica and sistine chapel. A must-do!!

Fantastic experience! I...

Fantastic experience! I believe this is the only way to do tours in rome. Better than compacting it all into one day

Best tour of Rome with family

Kyle_M, Jul 2024

Tomasso was AWESOME! Family of 7 ranging in age from 6 to 60 took this 2 day tour and it was PERFECT for us. Our guide, Tomasso, was engaging and gave a great tour that was perfect for everyone in our group. Being able to hit some of the big highlights in Rome with a guide was amazing. First day meet up at the Colloseum metro stop was easy as was the second day outside the Vatican museums. We never waited in any line for more than maybe 2-3 minutes at any of the places we visited. Tomasso was terrific explaining all the things and also giving us some options of different things to do during the tour. Overall the half day nature of the tours was perfect for our group because it allowed us time to go and do some things on our own as well as go back to the hotel to recharge and rest for a bit before going out in the evening for dinner and other activities. I would recommend bringing a refillable water bottle with you, especially during the warmer months.

Wonderful tour and tour guide

Elaine_N, Oct 2023

Our guide was very informative and knowledgeable. Couldn't have asked for a more personable individual. She even offered suggestions of places to visit after our scheduled tour was over

WOW!! A memory to last forever.

Lori_B, May 2023

Claudia was fantastic!! Two of our people have mobility issues, and Claudia was so patient with them. Slowed it up a bit, but still showed us all we could ever dream of. And the 'skip the line' was a blessing, to say the least. I would definitely take advantage of the tours if I ever visit your beautiful city again!

Saw a lot in a short time. Recommend.

Joellen_L, Apr 2023

Claudia was excellent! She gave us time at each spot and took pictures for us. She was extremely knowledgeable about every single piece of history behind the main attractions and even those outside of the tour that we inquired about. She adapted quickly to our pace, but kept us moving at a good rate. She made the tour so enjoyable and informational. Also very good at knowing where to go and how to navigate the monuments, lines, and crowds which was so helpful. We saw so much in the 2 days. But fair warning - it is a LOT of walking and stairs. Good for those who have a short amount of time in Rome and want to see a lot. Recomend!

The Best of the Best

Brett_W, May 2022

Wow, what a great time! So much to see with excellent tour guides. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of Rome. I wouldn’t do it any other way, highly recommended. At your pace, keep up and you can see it all!

Response from Host, May 2022

Ciao Brett, thank you very much for your review. Just glad you had a great time :)

Optimal way to see Rome

Daryl_B, Jun 2019

Our guide did an excellent job navigating us through the sites of Rome. There is so much to see and learn in Rome and our guide did an outstanding job of showing us the highlights and more interesting aspects of the ancient City.

SEBASTIAN_M, Jul 2022

Visita al Vaticano. El 1er día nuestra guía Romina, aunque sabía mucho, quizás por el excesivo calor, pasó muy rápido por los monumentos y se dejó muchos por ver y explicar. Había 37°C y era muy duro pasear. Pero se le noto mucho que no le apetecía.
