Our guide, Alessandro, was incredible! We visited Rome, Florence, Pisa, Cinque Terre, Parma, Verona, Venice and Siena… and his tour was everyone’s absolute favorite experience hands down. We learned so many fascinating things; it was very clear that he truly loves history and teaching/sharing that passion.

Guide cancelled an hour before our tour but we weren’t told anything until we showed up after a $20 taxi. Other guides were unhelpful and offered a tour 4 days later. At least they didn’t argue about a refund.

Look, you know you are going to want to visit these locations when in Rome and with the rules and regulations you will want to use a tour group to help you navigate the lines and rules. I cannot stress enough the complicated rules these historical sites have put in place do good reasons but still, it is a lot. From the clear directions about the meeting point to the end, the organization was fantastic.
There were a few groups leaving at one but the main person lined everyone up, checked us in, and sent us to our specific tour guide (Zoya). Then the ticket with our names were handed out to each of us. There are at least 4 check points in the complex, some require an ID card.
Our tour was skip the line with full access so we got to go to the floor. If you want to go under the floor, that is a much more difficult (due to understandable restrictions of numbers of people) and separate ticket to get. I knew that ahead of time, but sharing it incase others do not.
It is a very crowded site, but Zoya moved us through with ease and at the right speed. She gave us time for pictures and to take it in. She shared stories and showed us super interesting things that a trio without a guide would not; such as, explaining what the holes in the original structures were there for. We learned so much about the building and what a day spent there would be like. Same for the Forum.
We not only had a great day but we felt like we understood what we saw.

Sara was amazing!! I have actually been to Rome and the Colosseum previously, but Sara was hands down the best guide I have had not only in Rome but on all my travels. She was kind, informative, and passionate about her job. You can tell she is very hardworking and cares about what she does. This made the experience!
Even with the rain in the middle of our tour she kept us in good spirits. She is extremely knowledgeable and took us to many sites in the Forum that the previous tour guide I had at the Colosseum in 2022 had not taken us to. All in all, it was a wonderful tour and made my dad and I’s trip in Rome that much more special. Thank you Sara and God bless you!! ?

So many lines and order for visiting these places, so highly recommend doing this tour to have a group with guides take you around. Guides were easy to find and very helpful.

I could be wrong about the name of our guide (Patrick/ Peter) was great. We could imagine the history with his explanation. Appreciate the information he shared.

The tour guide, Pierre Georgio, was great, so informative about the history of Ancient Rome and the Colessium. The building itself is incredible, and it was fascinating to learn that in the centuries after it was no longer used for gladiator battles in the 5th century, pieces of the travertine limestone were used for other buildings, including the Vatican.

Amazing! The best excursion of our trip. Our guide, Gia, was incredible! She was so passionate about the site and had obvious joy when she saw that new portions of the Palatine Hill had been excavated. She made the trip! Her extent of knowledge was unending. We also only had 7 in our group (5 were my family) so that made it extra special. It is a full 3 hours of walking and listening, so tiring, but well worth it.

Excellent, freindly, attentive guide. Very knowledgeable. Able to observe group needs and respond to a wide range of questions. While the computer images can be helpful, the glare sometimes made them hard to see.
