Liv Tours and our tourguide Francesco were absolutely THE BEST to deal with - thank you so much!!! - We had the most amazing tour of the Collessum in Rome along with the ruins of Palentine Hill! Francesco was our personal tour guide and we were lucky enough to have him all to ourselves today so no need for those annoying ear pieces since we heard him just fine. He was sooooooo knowledgeable and personable during the entire experience and really gave us a lot of “color” into the history of Rome and made us feel as though we were reliving life in Rome! So many thanks to Francesco for sharing his day (Easter of all days) with us as we couldnt be more appreciative and thankful for all of the work that he put into making our tour a magical experience. Liv Tours was a good value I feel and they have a absolute GEM of a tourguide in Francesco!!! Give that man a raise!

Buggy tour of Rome - An extremely wonderful, fun and informative tour of Rome. Chiara was the perfect guide, making sure we had a nice historical context of the key landmarks. With three young kids, it’s not easy to move around so this was absolutely the best way to see such a special city! Highly recommend

Great Semi Private Colosseum Tour April ‘25 - Guiliu E. was knowledgeable and humorous. Really enjoyed the semi-private tour because we learned a lot about Roman history and we only had 7 people. Some of the other tours had at least 50 people, so it was nice to have an intimate Q & A session. At the end of the Colleseum tour, I wish Guiliu had given us directions to the Roman Forum & Palitine Hall locations, because the signs are not clear and visible, but we finally meandered in the rain to find these locations.
