Great tour. The colosseum was amazing but equally so was the Palatine area with newly unearthed history and structures! Our tour guide was amazing - we forgot one of our IDs (needed for admission) and she thought to contact our hotel and have them send a scan of our passport to her phone.

Excellent tour. Excellent guide. Lots of walking. Take a water bottle. Small group- the ear piece helps a lot. Watch your step, lots of uneven ground with unforgiving stone floors. Very informative. Do an early tour to avoid the heat in late spring or summer.
Great Tour!

Absolutely incredible, our tour guide made the whole experience so memorable. We were inspired to feel what it may have been to be a Roman gladiator and the help of our guide ensure we did. By far one of the best tours and experiences of our lives. Thank you for the memories Ricardo you were incredible.

The tour was good. It is worth it to skip the lines as well as get useful info about the site, and efficiently move through the high yield areas. There is time to take pictures and do your own exploration (or re exploration) at the end of you wish! I am glad we did this tour.

So informative and she made it very interesting. She was so knowledgeable on the history of Rome and took the time to answer any questions we had. Small group is definitely the way to go. I highly recommend this tour and if your lucky you will get the same guide!

A very engaging, informative and detailed tour. I felt guilty that hardly any of the group had any questions as I know Eddy - our guide - would have had the answers and been keen to help us. He is clearly very well educated, but was not forcing us to know more than was needed at any given moment.
Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was really helpful in all respects.
A great experience!

Ricardo was a fantastic guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and very professional. Our group had a variety of ages and mobility needs present and Ricardo set a pace that all could handle. He was very aware and caring of the needs of the small group. I would definitely recommend Ricardo for future tours
