We booked our private tour through Viator and operated by Love Holidays. You'll definitely need your walking shoes for this one! While it's a pretty lengthy tour with lots of walking, it was totally worth it! Our guide coordinated picking us up in a private car and getting us to the Colosseum as well as getting us through the LONG line and security extremely quickly to avoid the Easter weekend crowds. She was well versed in the overall Roman history of these sites and provided us with some great photo stops along the walking tour, taking excellent pictures of us for special memories. She was full of very interesting historical knowledge and background information without being overwhelming or boring. We visited the main two floors of the Colosseum, then we ventured out to the Arch of Constantine, climbed the Palatine and ambled through the Ancient Roman and Imperial Forums filled with temples, monuments, the burial site of Cesar, etc. It was a tour PACKED with sites and facts that we would definitely recommend to anyone looking to explore that area and history of Rome.

We really enjoyed the informative tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum. It was a fun experience as we learned a lot about Ancient Rome. Our guide, Pasqualino, was an amazing person and he taught us a lot of the history behind the Forum and Colosseum. 3 hours was the perfect amount of time as we got to see everything that there was to offer. Overall, the 5 of us (3 kids) (2 Adults) really enjoyed this experience and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good tour.

Our guide Lisa was amazing and so informed. So happy we had her to show us the beautiful coliseum and forum. She was so kind to our kids and really enjoyed ourselves. It was beyond hot on the day we toured and Lisa made sure to get us in the shade as much as possible. Highly recommend this tour.

This was day 1 for us in Rome and we learnt so much in a relaxed way from a great guide. It seemed that every time we turned a corner there was a new delight and rarely were we near more than half a dozen other tourists despite the throngs ! Very clever.
So good we booked another tour for the next day. Great value for money

We were picked up at our hotel by the driver and tour guide who were very knowledgeable and gave us the best experience at each sight we saw. They handled getting tickets, and the logistics of getting us to our destinations that we wanted to see. We were safely dropped off at the hotel totally satisfied with the amazing places we viewed. Make sure you see Rome with them!

We had the honour of experiencing Ancient Rome with Valentina who is an amazing guide! Valentina made the ancient stories come alive for us and for 3 hours we were walking the streets with the ancients! Her knowledge is exceptional and her delivery is brilliant! Valentina is also a renowned expert on gelato and more importantly where to buy a good one!!
So, to Valentina we say thank you!! Thank you for making our afternoon so very special!

Our driver picked us up from our hotel and he was on time. He came 5 minutes early so that’s a plus. We did our tour today 7/5/21, it was a small group and our tour guide was Valentina. Valentina was the best, patient, knowledgeable and just an excellent tour guide. She explained and answered a lot of questions because we had a 10yr old and he had question along the tour. She kept up with our group, she kept her mask on, she allowed us to take little breaks along the way and water breaks etc.. Valentina made the tour fun and she interacted with us. This tour is amazing with lots of history. Valentina definitely know her stuff and if I were to do it again I will pick her as my tour guide. I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the best part of Rome and loves history, art and culture.
