TOP Colosseum Tours

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.

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 :)

I’ll never forget my first time seeing the Colosseum. Even though it was pouring rain, we enjoyed our tour with our guide Lou. Lou gave so much detail on Roman history and was very interactive and funny. I felt very welcomed by her and she did a great job. Would definitely choose this company again.

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

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 .

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.

Patrick was a superior guide who was able to keep our large group all together, even when 2 guests had mobility issues. He was funny, informative, patient, and it was the best tour I’ve ever had. I was skeptical about the headsets at first, but they turned out to be wildly useful.

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.

Lorenzo was extremely knowledgeable and personable as he walked us through history. We could really visualize the events of the past. Lorenzo did not rush through the tour, but gave us just the right amount of information to keep it interesting. Well worth the time!

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!

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!

Took us around colosseum explained everything. The lower part was not accessible. Enough times for photos. Next stop was palatine hill and roman forum but once it ended we had only access to palantine hill and roman forum. If we wanted to go explore more of colossesum that was not possible as guided tour ends.

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.

Eni was literally a fountain of information about the history of the Colosseum and its environs. He is a an exemplary tour guide who has been continurally learning for the past 10 years. I can't imagine having a better guide. I am certain he told us things that nobody else would notice or know. We had enough time to stop and take photos; he was sensitive to the needs of everyone and answered all our questions.

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!

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 !

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Augustino was a fantastic tour guide! He was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor, keeping us all entertained and at ease. The tour process was smooth and the headsets worked great. Loved the ease of getting around these 3 areas with guidance and minimal waiting. Would highly recommend this tour and guide!!

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!
