We had a phenomenal experience with Maria, our Colosseum guide from Joy of Rome. She was friendly and engaging from the first moments, taking special interest in our son (10 years) and daughter (8 years). She whisked us right to the front of the line and helped us negotiate the ticket-taking and ID check process. Once inside, she knew the Colosseum comprehensively, stopping to point out interesting facts and details. She was constantly asking questions of the kids and getting them to use their imaginations, explaining Roman history in a way that was appropriate for them. An impromptu bathroom break was no problem, and we resumed our tour. Maria had a bag full of activities to match the several exhibits she showed us, which the kids enjoyed completing. Maria also knew some of the best spots for views and photos, allowing us breaks to take snapshots. Keeping the kids' attention for 2+ hours is not easy, yet Maria was able to do it through her thoughtful questions and friendly nature. Easily the best tour guide we've ever had, anywhere. Her help with the logistics (tickets/lines) alone would have made the cost worth it; we got so much more out of the experience, for which we are very grateful. Also worth noting that Alexandra from Joy of Rome, with whom we corresponded before and after the visit, was extremely helpful and provided all the details we needed before our arrival. Can't say enough good things about Joy of Rome generally, and Maria specifically. We've enthusiastically recommended Joy of Rome to all our friends with kids who are considering taking kids to Rome. Our 2 hours with Maria were the highlight of our vacation!

This is our first time ever traveling to Rome which was quite intimidating and overwhelming. Our colosseum tour with Serena was a breath of fresh air! We have four young kids aged 9, 7, 5, and 3 and I was so nervous they would be bored out of their mind. Serena showed up with enthusiasm and I automatically knew we were going to enjoy that tour! She kept the kids engaged and excited to learn more! They ended up saying it was their favorite part of Rome! Serena and this company is a blessing especially when you have kids who need that extra patience and excitement! To make it even better, her English was so easy to understand which is always a worry when you’re out of the country! Also to top it all off, she happily took pictures of us as a family! We will definitely book with them again if/when we visit Rome in the future!

This was a wonderful experience with Maria Libera. We had a tour of Colloseum and cant be a better experience. Our kids aged 8 and 10 have enjoyed the journey and listen to Maria with full interest and while leaving with great experience. Tickets/ skip the line was arranged by Maria and we haven’t felt any burden even it was one if the crowded times. The visit is memorable for all of us. Maria is more than a guide, passionate about what she is doing and this pays off by passing her positive energy to the kids. We strongly suggest this experience to the families with kids who are interested in having a journey to the past. Special thanks to Maria.

Our tour guide, Adrianna, was a delightful person! She brought all kinds of pictures and maps so we could see how things used to look, and she was very informative and enthused about the subject matter.
