After we a previously booked La Vacanza Travel Underground tour was cancelled we were rebooked into this lesser tour. The colosseum was incredibly crowded at this time of year and it appeared that our large group (38) was supposed to be two different groups and that one of the tour guides had not shown up. The size of the group made it impossible to hear our guide Alexandra even with earpieces in. Alexandra was very short so we couldn't see her when she stopped to show us pictures. It was not her fault that the group was so large or the coliseum so crowded but she should have adjusted her style to better fit the large group. We turned in our ear pieces and stayed to explore on our own when the group moved on to the Palatine Hill. On the plus side - the tour meeting location was in the tour office right down the street from the coliseum.

Our tour guide, Dino, brought Ancient Rome to life with his stories of gladiators, Romans from all walks of life and the royalty. His passion and knowledge were genuinely shared. He was articulate and easily understood, even among the crowds. If we had the opportunity we would book another tour with this company with no reservations. Completely worth it.

5 stars because of the guide(dino) would give 4 if it wasnt for him. tour didnt start on time due to a late group. we should have just left without them. because of that we missed most of the roman forum and completely missed the palantine hill even though it was in increased price for it. In all it was great. cant complain about being inside the colosseum.

Dino gave us absolutely the best tour we could ask for! I don’t usually take the time to do this kind of thing, but he was great and time flew by. Not only was he knowledgeable, but it was obvious he has a passion for history and Rome.
