It was not worth the money

2.00The check in was very confusing. The guy barely spoke English and caused confusion at ticket registration. He kept telling everyone he could not find them. Finally, I called the trip organizer, and he talked to the registration person. The tour was in English, but the person had a thick accent that was too difficult to understand.

4.00I would recommend this tour. It is well organized. The guide was very knowledgeable. It was a very hot day and the tour guide was very attentive to our needs. She focused on finding places in the shade to explain the sites. It was obvious she was very passionate about her job And loves the city. I would recommend this tour.

5.00We had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Amir. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the Colosseo and Italian history, clearly passionate about the subject matter. It was obvious he loved sharing his expertise with us. Amir was very attentive, allowing plenty of time for questions and photos, which made the tour both informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

5.00I had an amazing time on this tour! Everything was well-organized from start to finish. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience fun and engaging. We got to see all the highlights, but what made it truly special were the personal touches—local insights, hidden gems, and plenty of opportunities for great photos. The pace was perfect—not rushed, but we also covered a lot. Transportation was comfortable, and everything ran on time. I appreciated how the guide took care of the group and made sure everyone was enjoying themselves. This tour exceeded my expectations and gave me a deeper appreciation for the area. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting. Worth every penny!
Book a tour for the Roman ruins

4.00Highly recommend taking a guided tour of the ruins in Rome instead of going it alone. We got so much more out of the experience hearing about the history of the coliseum, how it was used, the decline of Rome. Touring the forum and getting perspective on how it looked during its heyday was fantastic. Our tour was supposed to include Palatine Hill, but our guide did not include it. It was worth the extra walk up to view the ruins below from that vantage point. Our guide was very knowledgeable and added great historical perspective.
