It is a must see experience for Rome. Benjamin was our tour guide and he was great. This was a small group tour.

Susana was an amazing guide, she was very engaging and funny, and shared many memorable and interesting facts about the Colosseum. I would highly recommend her tours.

The tour was a dream, and Harry was great to work with! Very welcoming, helpful, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend the tour for anyone visiting Rome. While we did not have much time in Rome and our tour was unfortunately cut short, Harry offered exemplary customer service in ensuring my group received a refund for being unable to attend the Roman Forum part of the tour that got pushed to the next day. He even went above and beyond by offering much valuable information about other sights to see, places to eat and drink, and other activities around Rome. If you’re going to spend some time in Rome, this tour is a must!!

The tour with Julio and Russell was fantastic. I don't think going there alone without a tour would have done justice. The storytelling was really good and kept us involved all the time. It was structured in a manner that was friendly to laymen (like us) without much prior knowledge. I'd highly recommend this. Julio, Russell and Collin were very friendly and gave us cool recommendations of places in Rome too.

Thank you CarpeDiem for accommodating me and my friends. Russ went above and beyond to make it possible for me a my friends to see the coliseums during our last night. As for our tour guide, Julio, words can’t express how welcoming and knowledgeable he is. We could clearly see how passionate he was about all the details and historical info he was giving us. He even walked us down to a nice authentic italian restaurant were we met friends and had an amazing night. Thank you guys for a memorable evening!
