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.
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.
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 .
Angela was great!! In heavy rain she still made the tour as safe, informative and fun as possible. Would definitely recommend!
The highlight of our entire holiday! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, funny and thoughtful (finding us cool spots in the mid day heat). Highly recommend.
The tour was great! I can’t imagine trying to see some of these things without a guide explaining what you are looking at and without the proper context. It was unusually hot while we were in Rome and he made sure we had restroom stops and also plenty of water stops at the fountains to fill our bottles. He also tried to keep us in the shade as much as possible. There were only 11 in the group also so we were able to get around and into the sites a lot easier than some of the bigger groups. It is a lot of walking and Palatine Hill is a good bit of steps at the beginning. Once you get to the top of the hill the rest is pretty much downhill all the way to the Forum and Colosseum.
M was a great tour guide - extremely engaging and very self aware in terms of acknowledging the heat - he didn’t make us stand in the sun for more than we had to, which was much appreciated!
Angela was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and entertaining. She was so sweet with my teens/preteen and kept them engaged for the entire 3 hour tour. Highly recommend!
