    The tour itself was very enjoyable; however, the joining instructions provided in the information section were misleading. The details stated that the tour operator would be waiting outside the Basilica di San Clemente holding a white flag. On arrival, there was nobody with a white flag, and this caused unnecessary confusion and distress. We had to approach multiple tour operators before eventually locating the correct guide. This misinformation could easily have resulted in us missing the tour altogether. I recommend your listing be updated to prevent similar problems for future customers.

    Load up on carbs and water and expect to put in some effort if you want to get everything out of this experience. Excellent guide, very knowledgeable and we were ready for a beer and dinner after the show. Recommend this crew for anybody wanting to have an in-depth look at the Colosseum.
