Lillian

This was cool. As a tourist from outside Italy this was a cool thing to do. We did a tour and our tour guide was excellent, highly recommend. Our tour guide was called Valerio and he knew so much history, for any question you had he had an answer to. Highly recommend doing a tour. This was a neat part of history to see in Italy and very cool to see it in person.

Was a great site to see while on tour around the Eternal City. They recently cleaned the facade of the building so the stone is now clean and bright. Its usually very crowded for most of the day unless you come early in the morning. The guides were very nice and gave us a lot of cool information about the history of the Colosseum. Definitely a great place to see at least once while visiting Rome.
Michael

We had a guided tour which meant we got in really quickly with no wait time. We visited 10th Nov 2025 and whilst the crowds were still quite busy, we did not get stuck in any queues. A really good experience with plenty to see and learn. Highly recommended.
Hasti

Been seeing photos and videos of this breathtaking piece of history my whole life, now was the time to see it in person. Don’t forget to go and visit it in both daylight and night cause it’s amazing in both. The light decoration is something that is spectacular in Rome in general, so don’t miss out!

This is one of the nicest places in The world. Colosseum is indeed one of list of destinations that you simply can’t missed when you are in Rome. It was one in a lifetime worth experience for me. Our tour guide (Bogdan) was fantastic. He was very informative; felt we got a lot of additional information that you wouldn't get without a good guide. He clearly has a personal interest in learning about the history of Rome, which he shared with us. He was a lot of fun and made the experience personal and throughly enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you .

Everything went well. The tour departed on time, and our guide Tiberius was excellent in his knowledge of the history of the places we visited, and in leading the tour.

Radu was a phenomenal guide, he clearly loves the history of Rome and it shows in his tour. He is numerous and engaging!! Highly recommend!
George

The ruins & excavations of the Forum was spectacular. A tour behind closed doors included a neat chapel with wall paintings that have survived. The Coliseum was exceptional. Pictures can't do it justice. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared more info than I could comprehend. 5/5
