TOP Colosseum Tours

Francesca was such a friendly, entertaining and knowledgable tour guide! I loved hearing about the history and imagining what the colosseum and forums would have been like thousands of years ago. I was very happy with the pace, there was plenty of time to look around and take pictures. I'd really recommend this tour if you want a deeper experience of these landmarks :)

The tour was great and walked through a lot of historical sites of Rome. Our tour guide was super knowledgeable and explained in depth about various parts of the history of Rome + archeological sites and such. I would recommend this tour, very cool and informative!

This was a very in-depth tour that was informative and gave great photo opportunities around the Colosseum and atop Palatine Hill overlooking the Roman Forum. Tour guide was enjoyable, patient yet moved the group along in a timely fashion and was able to answer all questions.

Rome Coliseum, Wow Wow Wow, definitely make sure you do the guided tour for this one, the guide Stefano was superb, really knowledgeable and the overall experience was well worth the money and time spent listening to the story, history along with bringing it all to life. – Thanks Stefano!

This tour and tour guide was the best tour I’ve ever had! I didn’t know what to expect … but it wasn’t getting one of the funnest, SO interesting and knowledgeable experiences of my life! Aerion (sorry I can’t remember the spelling) was our tour guide and he just made our experience that much better. I could almost say he made the experience, he really did! … seeing the colosseum was so amazing! The information, the facts that we learned and were told, were the best in the world! Palatine Hill and the Forum was absolutely incredible! Please do a tour of these, you will have the time of your life!!!! - J. & S.

Thoroughly enjoyable tour of the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Tour guide was knowledgeable but struggled to answer any questions which were additional to her tour information. Thank God for Google. Roman forum was lovely. Just a shame that once the tour was finished and we were left to explore the Roman Forum by ourselves, the place was closing. So we had to exit with loads still to see. Never the less I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and well worth the ticket price.

We signed up on the day of the tour and did not know what to expect. Marcius was amazing. He was better than the private professional guides we had earlier on our trip. He brought such an engaging energy that drew you in with his vivid descriptions of how life was 2000 years ago. We highly recommend the tour and Marcius. Grazie!

Eni was great today! Such a sweet and informative tour guide. He had so much history to share with us, it was fascinating. I especially loved going up to the Roman Forum and getting beautiful views of the Colloseum from the hill. It‘s a lot of walking and 3 hours so make sure you bring water and good shoes! It wasn’t too much though. Only complaint is that I would of liked more free time at the Colloseum to explore and take photos. Other then that, all round great tour guide and experience. Thank you!

Our guide was absolutely amazing, we will forever remember our tour in rome with our guide from Albania she was an absolute Lady. I highly suggest getting a guide as ours was so knowledgeable on the sites, and we met lovely people from the US and Australia, thank you from Ireland

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.

We had a great time seeing the colosseum. Our guide Lucia was great! We went on a Sunday. Keep in mind the other museums are closed on Sundays so this is the busiest day for the colosseum. If your going on Sunday you will not see much without a guide, it is way too packed.

We had a great tour! Our guide Ginie, was so knowledgeable and shared fabulous stories which made the tour come alive. We were a large group but Ginie managed the size expertly and ensured we all felt included. Of course it was busy and hot at the Coliseum but we stopped often and left feeling well informed. A definite !

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.

The colosseum is something amazing to see. So rich in history and a definite must if you’re in Rome. Overall, our guide was good and very knowledgeable as he used to be an archeologist working on the site, however , he did speak a bit too fast and our ear pieces kept getting interference with other guides. Aside from that, an awesome activity for sure.

Ales was informative and knowledgeable and clearly very passionate about Roman history, and the restoration and preservation of the areas that we visited. It’s a lot of history to cover in 3 hours but he gave us a great overview and also gave everyone in the group plenty of time to stop and take photographs.

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.

We had a fantastic time!! Our guide Lumi was hilarious and we loved her humor. She was very informative and her pacing was awesome. She made sure that everyone got to stand in the shade or sit down when possible. We did the arena tour which was cool to be on the ground floor.

We had a wonderful tour around the Coliseum, Palatine Hill & Roman Forum on Friday 30/9/22 with Dennis. Dennis was so knowledgeable, enthusiastic & passionate about the history of the Romans. It truly was one of the best tours myself & husband have had. We would both definitely recommend! 5 stars

This was our first guided tour experience ever so we were a bit hesitant but it was absolutely worth it. These destinations are so overrun with tourists and so devoid of signage that it felt essential to have someone to help appreciate the ruins. We can't stop talking about all that we saw and will definitely be back!

Overall pretty good experience. Our tour guide was knowledgeable but not very personable. Learned a lot but next time I don’t think I would do a 3 hour tour. Also it was hard to hear in the headset. We were given one headphone and not 2 and there was not volume adjust button. But overall not a bad experience.
