The tour was excellent. I don’t remember the tour guides name in Vatican tour but he was the 10+ !!!! He knows every single detail. He showed us lots of things and explained lots of details about history.. just the point l have to say that tour doesn’t arrange transportation between tours . You may use metro ( we used to go to Vatican from Colesium ) and taxi ( cheaper than metro for 3 person, we used Fran Vatican to Trevi fountain) short of all tour guides were excellent.

Rome Private Guides is operated by Vivicos International Travel Srl Via Vespasiano 28 Roma, 00192 [email protected] + 39 0683936432 + 39 0683936406 and I recommend them very highly! We had booked a Coliseum, Forum, Palantine Hill and a Vatican Museums/Sistine Chapel tour with another company, and one week before our departure were notified that they did not have tix for the Coliseum (despite it being booked 6 weeks prior). So we had to scramble to find a new operator. This company was on my original list and here is why I recommend them so highly: 1). I immediately emailed them on March 27 to ask if they had tickets and tour availability. I received a reply within a few hours from Satu, who I corresponded with over the next several days, and he guaranteed that they definitely had 6 tickets. Relief! Several people in our group had never been to Italy, so this was a big deal! 2). Our morning guide, Nariman, was wonderful. She gave us a wonderful tour of the Coliseum, Forum and Palantine Hill, and we were in a small group to boot! 3). Our Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel guide (sorry do not remember his name), was also good and very knowledgeable. When I return to Italy, I will definitely use this company again!!!! Communication is so vital when we are spending so much money for a once-in-a-lifetime family trip and Rome Private Guides delivered!

I didn’t realize this excursion was broken up into 2 parts so it made it for a very long day. The 1st tour guide was rude and stand offish in the beginning and the 2nd tour guide was friendly but went an hour over. If I did it again I would break it up over 2 days

A tour of the Colosseum is worth the money. It's an amazing structure and bigger when you are actually inside.

We did this combo tour. The tour guide Yuri was very knowledgeable. It was a very hot day and I should have planned it a little better. But I recommend it if a.) you are a smaller group and don't have kids younger than 16 years with you. lot of walking but extremely detailed. Definitely try it
