Christina was truly the... - Christina was truly the best tour guide we could have hoped for on our Coliseum tour this morning. Her passion for history and archaeology was clear from the start and made the entire experience come to life. As a family of four, we were especially thrilled to see how engaged our two boys (ages 10 and 13) were they haven’t stopped talking about how much they enjoyed it! Thank you for such a memorable and inspiring tour.

Colosseum visit with a guide is better than going alone. - The coordinator on site was great - we got there early but couldn’t find the meeting spot - thought we were on the ground but we were up the next level. Coordinator called us and explained where we had to go. Our guide Christina was great at explaining the areas of the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Enough time was allowed for photos with Christina assisting by taking some great shots of us.

A Tour Fit For A Gladiator - This tour was superb! Christina was a wonderful guide - passionate and very knowledgeable. She made the tour exciting and fun. It was well worth the money and the time - we learned so much more than we ever would have had we toured it by ourselves.

Great tour but not including higher or lower levels - We went to see the gardens first, and then the best for last, which I liked, you go to the arena floor where the gladiator where. You don't go to the higher levels or the lower levels which is not included. So much knowledge, which really gives a greater understanding of the history. It's very busy which makes some areas very hot, so bring lots of water.

Gladiators Arena Tour with Colosseum First Level & Ancient Rome - This was a bate and switch scam! We were supposed to have a tour guide but when we arrived we were told the guide was not coming. We were charged $388.56 for four people but only received an entry ticket valued at 24€ each and no tour.

Seeing the Colosseum,... - Seeing the Colosseum, Palentine Hill and Roman Forum itself was absolutely wonderful. It’s one of the reasons we came to Rome. Unfortunately our guide could barely speak English and we all had an impossible time hearing what she had to say. She talked way too fast even after several people told her to slow down or repeat. If anyone asked a question she would say she was in a hurry and we could come back after the tour was over and see it again on our own. She said this so many times that my husband and I finally left the tour and turned on Rick Steves walking tour. We wernt rushed and we could understand what he was saying. This tour was a disaster and unfortunately we wernt the only ones who felt this way. I wish she spoke better English as that is what we paid for. Its not worth the money we spent
