Julia was a very informative, organized, and knowledgeable guide. We learned so much from her. The Colosseum area is very crowded and you must have your passport, so having a guide navigate to entire experience was invaluable,

Our guide and tour made our day. A small group is the only way to see the Coliseum. His knowledge, and attention to detail. The ability to skip the lines, and enjoy our time there is a wonderful memory.
