Daniele V was truly an amazing tour guide. Super friendly and passionate about the history of Rome. Daniele V was very cinematic and really helped bring the colosseum to life. If there’s a tour you want to do this MUST be it.

The tour is very disorganized. When booking it mentions downloading ticket to Apple Wallet but that is not the case. You get an email indicating to meet somewhere with a yellow sign. We booked the Rome night tour because of the heat and then it was switched to 2 tours, one during the day in the heat and then one at night. When asking for the ticket during the day they didn't provide anything and said come back at 9:15 at night. When we arrived (early) they said the tour started at 8:50.

Truly amazing experience during our nighttime underground tour of the colosseum. We had a terrific guide and would highly recommend spending the extra money for that tour.
