    Samantha was AMAZING. I was initially shocked by the amount of people in the tour and the crowds but she navigated and curated with such amazing wisdom and grace. Definitely need to take this tour to really understand the importance of these historic shrines.

  • A must see but a very busy experience

    The tour took a lot longer than expected mainly due to the numbers of people there either in other tour groups or as individual ticket holders. As a result we did not stay for the second part of the tour. There seemed to be little crowd control governing how many people are entering. Clearly everyone wants to see the sights on offer and get their respective pictures but that is very difficult due to the numbers of people. This is not a Viator only issue. At least I can say I have been to the colosseum!
