Additional Information
When one mentions Italy, Rome often immediately springs to mind with its iconic ancient history, significant global impact in the arts, and the magnificence of the Colosseum. We desire for you to take full advantage of all Rome has to offer, and we’re here to facilitate that for you. Be awed by the commanding presence of the Colosseum, so grand it seems almost etched into the skyline itself! Get set to step into the majestic narrative! The ‘Flavian Amphitheater’ - more popularly known as the Colosseum - stands as a powerful symbol of Roman history and its remarkable past. Dodge the hassle of lengthy queues with our priority entrance ticket as our expert leads you on a journey through the space where gladiators and wild creatures once battled, revealing the intricate workings of this fantastic arena. As your guide narrates, you might almost sense the Colosseum pulsating with vital energy and imagine locking eyes with a strutting Gladiator in the heart of the Arena or hearing the faint echoes of lion roars causing a flurry among nearby pigeons.

Great tour of Colosseum and Roman Forum - Nicoletta was a great guide, sharing her passion of the Colosseum and Roman forum with us. She was full of amazing and interesting insights into the time period and was able to convey how life was lived during this era!
Nicoletta also did a fantastic job handling an unfortunate and unforeseen medical situation during our tour.

Knowledgeable experience - Very informative. Tour guide, Lina, was knowledgeable. We saw photos of how the structures originally looked in order to get an idea of what we were viewing. Being in a small group made it more personal.

Rita was the best! - We thought this tour was very thorough and appreciated the depth of information our guide, Rita, went into. She was a ball of fire with tons of enthusiasm and kept everyone entertained with all her descriptions of life during the heyday of the colossuem.

Guided tour Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum - We did the guided tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum with Rosalia (189).
When preparing our trip, I had initially booked two simple skip-the-line tickets in another agency and these were cancelled. A week before our departure for Rome, I had to find a plan B and so I booked this visit and frankly we have no regrets, quite the contrary.
It was easy for us to find the meeting place and we were taken care of by the team then by our guide Rosalia.
The 3 hours of visits were rich in explanations and anecdotes that we would never have been able to have by visiting alone. Rosalia shared with us her innumerable knowledge on the subject, also allowing us to make links with things seen on other sites in Rome.
Furthermore, thanks to Rosalia's explanations but also thanks to the exquisite photographs that she showed us during the visit I was able to really project myself into this past of ancient Rome.
If I had to make recommendations to a friend for their trip to Rome, I would recommend taking the guided tour of these three magnificent sites with Rosalia.
Thank you so much.

Best guide to Forum I’ve ever had - Best way to see these special places is with a guide who has the passion and knowledge needed to give you a great insight to the history and also the best places to go to. Lena made the area come back to life and fuelled your imagination .

Disappointed - I booked our tour online several weeks before we travelled. The tour was booked for 10:30 am. One day before our arrival in Rome I received an email telling me our tour was moved to 2:30 pm. This turned out to be an issue for us. We had to meet a bus at 4:15pm to get back to our ship. We were forced to cut our tour in half in order to get back to the meeting point. We would not have had this problem if the tour wasn’t rescheduled. I would not have known about the change if I hadn’t accessed my email on the ship using their Wi-Fi. This is not fair or reasonable treatment of customers using your service. I would consider changing my poor star review if I was offered a refund.
