My mother and I took a private tour of the Colosseum and Ancient Rome with Serena of Blue Cat Tours. She walked us through the entire structure of the Colosseum, sharing her extensive knowledge of the history of Rome and the Colosseum over the past two thousand years. She was extremely patient with my elderly mother and helped make this experience very special. The Colosseum is an impressive place and it’s very existence is hard to imagine. We also visited the Roman Forum area and Palatine Hill. Serena walked us through these areas, telling us about life in Ancient Rome and the significance of many of its buildings and other structures. I was especially fascinated when Serena pointed out to me the location where Rome was actually founded nearly eight centuries before Christ. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience for us both and Serena was an essential part of that.

Our private tour of the Colosseum and forum was fantastic. Our tour guide, Serena with Blue Cat Tours, was able to show us so much more than what the small group tours appeared to focus on. Also, if you're like us and like to move and not be stuck in the crowd, the private tour accomplishes just that. We were able to move through the Colosseum at ease with Serena's guidance and have all of our questions answered.

THE MOST INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!!! This literally made our whole trip, your guide teaches you SO much about the colloseum and Roman forum in such an engaging way!! This is 1000% worth it and 1000% necessary for your trip to rome, if you don’t go with Serena you will seriously miss out on so much history and knowledge. It was so amazing to have the tour to ourselves and ask a million questions, and she was kind enough to take a thousand pictures for us :) the guide goes at your pace and had an answer for every single question I asked. So so so amazing cannot rave about this tour and tour guide enough!! Shout out to Serena who made it incredible!!
