Our Carpe Diem Tour was fabulous! We were in a small group of 9 and our delightful, knowledgeable and thoughtful host Caterina made sure everyone had a memorable experience. Caterina managed to bring the ruins to life with her detailed descriptions and pictorial information. We would wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Sally and Cliff Miller Australia

I like the way George took his time to not leave anybody behind. I didn’t feel hurried at all. Thanks

Guide (Karen?) was excellent. The tour was very informative and very worthwhile. The management of queues was very poor. It was busy but even so.
ONLY 6 ladies toilets on site (for Italy this is still amazing) but for the number of visitors AND a 3 hour it was hopeless. 2 were unusable due to flooding.

We had an amazing Colosseum tour, with Aurora as our guide. Her deep knowledge and genuine passion for Rome’s rich history and drama made this our favorite tour by far!
Her high level narrative was often supplemented by richly detailed sub narratives that dovetailed nicely, painting a complete picture that was easy to follow. What was scheduled to be a 3 hour tour easily became 4+ hours, and she offered to keep it going for as long as we’d like.
Had it not been for early dinner reservations, we would have loved to spend more time with her. She made it a point to get to know each of the tour participants, and had a very natural, personable nature.
Once our tour concluded, she made several “locals” dinner recommendations, some based on where we were staying, which exceeded our expectations.
In the end, she even helped us get into our Taxi - what an incredible person, and what an incredible tour!
We only hope that we’re fortunate enough to see her again in the future.

Aurora, our guide, was fantastic. She was enthusiastic, energetic, and full of interesting information. She was very friendly with advice about the local area also, and happy to extend the tour by a bit as she did not have any subsequent engagements. There's a lot to see, so I recommend using a guided tour such as this one.

Our Guide was very knowledgeable however the earpieces were of very low quality making it difficult to hear. The volume of people is somewhat overwhelming at these historical sites.
