Your licensed tour guide will bring to life the exciting and shocking events that took place where you now stand.

    Excellent tour and guide, paid for the gladiator entrance so was on the floor of the arena. The guide was a fountain of information and she brought to life all aspects of the Rome colosseum and Palatine hill. How ever I would remind people to take photo ID with them for this tour as it is required!! (Was not made aware of this before hand,luckily we had screen shots of our passports on our phones). Also the tour could start at 1.00 not 1.30 as at this time of year they start to close early and had to rush the last part of the tour. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

    Best experience I have ever had. Started in the Roman Forum and finished on the arena floor of the colosseum. Maria was so knowledgeable and I wouldnt do a tour without a guide. We learned so much more about the history as we walked around that you would never get doing it yourself. Definite recommendation for this tour
