Rome Tours & Excursions

This was a good tour overall, we started off with roman forum and palatine Hill and got access to the arena and collosseum with skip the line entry. Our guide was a lovely lady and explained everything well and went into details about some of the history. The only hiccup was that we got lost in the crowd before entering the colloseum and while we had the radios active it was very difficult to find the group and guide given hundreds of people are pushing you and trying to enter. We eventually found them but had a bit of panic as we were trying to call the tour agency but they were not picking up my calls at that time. Eventually our guide realised and came back to find us at one of the entry gates of the colloseum. My suggestion would be if the company can provide an active number to call in case of emergencies or if the guides mention a meeting spot to wait in case people get separated. There were many scarfs that looked like the one our guide used so we couldn't rely on that.

Our guide on the bus was amazing, checking on everyone, lots of communication, our guide around Pompeii was funny and full of information he really made the day that but more memorable, the hike up Vesuvius was something we will never forget even though walking up in the heat can be a big deterrent keep going it’s worth it when you’re up there and it is possible in the time given! I do not recommend the pizza place for lunch, the staff were rude and the food was not of good quality in my opinion! It’s was burnt and hard! Also if you can’t stop for souvenirs in Pompeii they do have them in shops up Vesuvius

Very good guided tour with all the historical information needed. You go to colosseum, then palatin and you finish with the view on roman forum while the history is being expalined by your guide. Next, you are free to roam around roman forum by yourself.

"We so enjoyed this tour. We could sit back and enjoy the ride. Our tour guide was friendly and so helpful. The side trip to Naples was a nice surprise to the trip. Our lunch was very good. "

The tour and guide were great and entertaining. The guide had a good knowledge of the three areas and helped us to avoid the crowds. The tour included the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and ended in the Forum, quite a bit of walking but it was interesting and well presented. The guide stopped us regularly to suggest photograph locations and for water stops... which was helpful.

I booked a guided tour in Vatican, with my two children. The experience was really amazing! Our guide Antonio was such an informative, professional, kind and with a great sense of humour man. His knowledge about art was very impressed. We were really lucky to have him as our guide to our first visit in Vatican. Thank you!

Our tour guide Giuliano and driver Gianluca were superb. They were very attentive and professional. They made the day long excursion a fun and informative one. We had a tour of Pompeii with 6 people with Sasa (sp?) who’s knowledge was second to none. He made sure to keep us in the shade while talking. Naples was great. We had lunch at Antonio & Antonio with a beautiful view of the Gulf of Naples. We did a beautiful walk of Naples and got a good feel for the city and it’s history.

A really informative and interesting tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum. The guide was very knowledgeable but set a fast pace as there was so much to see and so much to tell us about. We learned far more than we would have done just wandering around on our own. We definitely recommend this tour.

Excellent package! Sums up everything which needs to be covered in a day. Full Description given about the tour is just a gist. The amount of knowledge we got today from Rob was way beyond to what is said. He is was so good, a very good sense of humor. He was careful and attentive for each traveller. However, the only concern was the time given to spent in Positano was a bit less. Our guide in Pompeii, Elanor, was great as well. Very well spoken and had exact time management skills. Overall it was an experience I would recommend 100%. Worth missing your sleep in the morning for an early tour.

Our guide Laura, was amazing! She was very patient and kind with the group, specially seniors and kids, we loved her! She was very knowledgeable, passionate about what she was explaining and answered all our questions, skip the line and the guidance is totally worth it! Would book these guys again :)

We were able to get right into the Vatican. We used the Rick Steeve's app (which is free to download) and took the self guided tour of the Vatican. We were late because of Uber issues and they were able to help us get into a later group. Very accommodating.

We had a very good guide with Maite. She gave us understandable and interesting information to this amazing site.

"This tour was the best one we did. Pompeii was so amazing to see in person. Our guide Carlo was very knowledgeable and very nice. Deanna was also great, but we thought she needed a microphone when we were in the van it was hard for the people in the back to hear her. Our driver got us there fast and they were very accommodating. We would do this tour again. Just amazing things to see! "

Great experience! Radu was a great guide and very knowledgeable! Only sad part was we paid to tour the bottom part of the Colloseum and it was canceled w/o explanation. There were other groups down below, our family was bummed that we couldn't see that part but others were down there.

Thank you to our great guide and service. We were late and missed our group, but when we found the meeting spot they helped secure our tix and even escorted us to the entrance so we could enter and tour on our own. Felt like we got VIP service even though we were late!

I did not have an option to buy tickets directly for the day and time that I wanted to visit. The process was simple. Met at their office which it is located a few steps from the Vatican. We walked to the entrance, we were handed our tickets, and off we went on our own at our own pace. We loved it. Some people may want the guided tours.

Sonya was a great tour guide. We were surprised by the amount of knowledge she shared about the colosseum, forum and Palentine hill. The tour started at the lower subway station and ended on top of the palentine hill. The colosseum is a busy place and with the small group we were able to circle around and see photos and other documents that showed the area in its height.

Arrived early and went to st peters square and saw the Pope. What Luck. Walked around the east side wall to get to the Museum entrance and was able to walk past a huge entry line with the skip the line privs. Get the audio guide it worth the $10 to know what you are looking at.

We had a very knowledgeable guide - Alessandro - who quickly moved though some technical challenges to give us a very thorough commentary of the Forum, Palatine Hill and Colosseum. It was enjoyable but a lot to take in and left us all a bit overwhelmed and exhausted… better that than the alternative! Highly recommend but suggest making it the only activity that day .

It was confusing to me that we were supposed to find a ""meeting point"" for this self-guided tour. We exchanged our vouchers for tickets at the ticket window and the went into the museum. We couldn't read the map because it wasn't in English, so weren't really sure how to navigate without going through everything. We really were most interested in seeing the Sistine Chapel, so honestly we ended up skipping most of the museum. When we arrived in the chapel, we each had the same reaction...""Is this it?"" It was underwhelming and not at all what we'd expected. Afterwards, we went to see St. Peter's Basilica, but the line was too long. All in all, we were disappointed with this activity, but we're not Catholic, so that may be a big factor.
