Colosseum and Archeological Site Guided Tour

5.00Extensive walking tour of nearby temples and archeological site next to collosuem was interesting. Its a little hard to find the start of the tour. About 15 different tour companies meet around Cafe Roma. A bigger sign with the tour group name on it high up on a post or something would keep folks from wandering around searching for the sign-in. Other predatory tour company "marketers" hound tourists looking for the starting point trying to mislead you into signing up for their tour, instead. This is prime location for pick pocketers, too, so mind your wallets and backpacks. Its a huge complex and you walk for 2 hours before the colloseum portion. Wear good shoes! The guide was nice, if not a little hard to understand her English, but it helped to have the ear buds so you could follow along and hear her, even if you wandered a bit off from the group. There is a second, 2 hour portion inside the colloseum. Going to the underground rooms and staging area was very cool. This tour takes you to some portions that are restricted from general admission so you can enjoy the tour with less crowds and chaos. The place is otherwise mobbed with people. Very long bathroom lines in colloseum, so go in the temples area before heading in. It would be uncomfortable in blazing sun and heat of summer. We went in October and it was perfect.
A faster way to see all of Rome’s attractions without going through long lines…

4.00Tour was ok. I could have given it 5 stars but there are some areas they could have done better: 1. It has limited stops, only 6 as compared to others . 2. The tour ends early in the day.
Great way to see the city
