Visitied Colosseum with guide from Roman Vacations. At first, it was out of necessity (as official tickets for the day I wanted were sold out), but now I am happy I could have experienced Colosseum with the guide. Let me explain why in few points: - I wanted to visit Colosseum including arena. Roman Vacations offered this - some agencies offered tickets for visit no sooner than 5 days. Roman Vacations? The next day (and still couple of slots in that day) - on our way there, cca 15 minutes before start, I got phone call from company, making sure all is ok and we will make it. Of course, we got there in time, but it was nice to know they care - staff at the front desk was very friendly and helpful - I was surprised the group consisted of only dozen of people! Almost felt like personal tour, and was really an advantage later, inside of Colosseum - Mitch (from Romania) spoke almost all the time. Even while walking towards our destinations, he did explain life in the era, sharing lots of interesting facts. Often with humour. Still, given the fact it was almost 3 hour tour, it was impressive - Another praise for Mitch - since we were small group, he was making sure we are together at all times. Once, one elder couple got quite behind on the staircase, he noticed it right after next corner and we waited there until all of us were reunited again, reminding them through the radio where to go. Might not sound like a big deal, but this place packs so many people it is easy to get lost in crowd while focusing on the artifacts on display. - Mitch also shared lots of information that was not widely known, so despite knowing thing or two about Colosseum, I still gained a lot of new knowledge. Palatine hill and Roman forum were also part of the tour, but I did not enjoy them too much in 34 degrees Celsius :-) As a conclusion, it wad very exciting experience for me - I learnt a lot of things thanks to Mitch and can wholeheartedly recommend Roman Vacation tour and their guides.

BEWARE! This company sells you tickets THEY DO NOT HAVE ON-HAND. They'll gladly accept your money and then hang you out to dry if they aren't able to get all the tickets that they took reservations for. They will text you just a few hours or days before your scheduled tour time and try to get you to reschedule to another day. THIS WILL RUIN YOUR VACATION IF THIS NEW, RANDOM DATE/TIME DOESN'T WORK FOR YOUR SCHEDULE. Unfortunately, this shady practice is common with seemingly all group Colosseum tours. My advice is to skip the group tour altogether and buy a general admission ticket directly with the Colosseum. Yes, you may miss out on some fun facts, but at least you won't miss out on seeing the Colosseum entirely when this company cancels last second on you and now it's too late to find other tickets. EDIT TO RESPOND: Your smug reply and inability to even feign remorse demonstrate what kind of slimy company you are more than anything I can say. Yes, canceling 4 days before a scheduled tour is a HUGE deal for 99% of people...the fact that you don't seem to recognize that is telling. Thanks to you, instead of enjoying myself while I was in Venice I was forced to frantically search for other providers who actually had Colosseum tickets available for the dates I would be in Rome...not an easy task LAST MINUTE. You can pass the blame all you want, but if someone makes a RESERVATION with you for a date and time, you should be able to FOLLOW THROUGH with that reservation. Do better.

*TERRIBLE TOUR GUIDE* i went on the Colosseum/Forum tour with my mom & 4 other people. i’ve been a professional tour guide for 5 years in hawaii & i just moved to europe for a masters degree in archaeology. i was excited for this tour to learn about my passions & experience such a piece of human history with my mom. this was the most disappointing & disrespectful tour i have ever been on. the guide (unbelievably mad i don’t remember his name) was RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, and CONDESCENDING. he constantly complained when his guests were taking photos or using the bathroom during “free time” - he told us 2x we would stop at the gift shop then completely skipped it. to the point where i considered just handing him the headset and leaving. and the other people were supportive of that!!!!! instead of answering questions he spoke down to each of us. there were more nonsensical pop culture references than history. and 90% of the time none of us understood what he was referring to. half the colosseum portion he spent fueding with & talking bad about a different guide from a different company. to the point where we were racing to beat her to different talking points - skipping chunks of the tour. the best part of the tour was taking a deep breath once it ended. i’m unbelievably disappointed. this was by far the most appalling tour i’ve ever been on & the guide has NO business ruining peoples once in a lifetime chance to see this chunk of human history.

  • Katherine Smallcombe

Dreadful experience! DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS TOUR COMPANY! I would absolutely recommend going with a different tour company. Our guide was obviously bored and hardly spoke! We resorted to looking up information online as the tour was going on, in order to understand what we were seeing! Other tour group leaders had folders with images to help bring the ancient structures to life...not ours! Check that you are allocated to the tour you paid for. We paid for a more expensive and comprehensive tour, but there was a mistake made by the tour company and we were sent on the incorrect tour! Their response to their mistake has been hopeless ie. minimal. With so many tourists around, they don't care if they get it wrong for you. It was such a disappointment compared to every other tour we have done during our trip in Italy. Avoid this tour company and book elsewhere.

  • DJ Dumbles

Booked a short notice and didn't regret it. Knowledgeable guide who bought the tour to life and reacted with the tour members. He didn't just read from a script. Note the tour is "at pace" due to the vast amount to see, so wont be suitable for all, especially as the paths at the forum are obviously a bit old!!! There are often other tours competing to get to the same views and indeed in October its appeared that the skip the line queue was longer than the actual just turn up queue. We booked a small number queue and there were 16 participants. I wouldn't want to be on a tour with more. The meeting point/office is close to The Colosseum and the lady in the office was very helpful. Take a water bottle and good walking shoes - don't go for a big sightseeing walk beforehand! Do recommend this tour and Antonello as a guide.

  • Sandra Z

We were able visit Rome for a brief period of time and wanted to make the most of it. We did the Rome City Center walking tour with Angela. The tour was wonderful. Angela gave us the history of the area, making it come alive. Although we were a bit tired from traveling, that became secondary because we enjoyed seeing Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon. We were encouraged to ask questions and able to see historic sites that were unknown to us. Angela is enthusiastic and truly focuses on making the tour perfect for you. In addition, we did the small group Colosseum tour the following day. We are recommending Roman Vacations to our friends.

  • Jayme Steinbach

Angela and Mircea saved the day and turned our Roman experience into something truly remarkable and exceeding all expectations. We booked a small group tour of the Coliseum, Roman Forum and Palatine hill. Mircea is an excellent tour guide and is very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. We were truly lucky to have him as our tour guide and would recommend him and any tours he may do. He even got us to a taxi to get to our next tour that Roman Vacations booked for us at the Vatican. Roman Vacations will go above and beyond for their customers and will create an amazing experience. Highly recommend utilizing this tour company.

  • Pauline Spiegel

My spouse and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the historical Jewish Ghetto in Rome with our tour guide Brian. Brian gave us a thorough background of Jewish presence in Rome and answered our questions with detail and extra context. It was a new perspective because so much of what we’ve heard of Jews in Europe has focused on Germany and Poland, so hearing the Italian story was interesting. This was not a long walk and included some sitting. Our tour also included a taste of some excellent gelato from a kosher vendor in the Jewish neighborhood.

  • Molly Rider

We booked this tour originally because it was the only way to get tickets to the colosseum so late. Although it cost more than planning ahead and doing a self guided tour, this was so worth it! Mircea had a great personality and sense of humor and was very knowledgeable about the subject and seemed to really enjoy his job. The group is kept small so it seemed more personal and made it easier to get around in the sea of other very large tour groups. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the colosseum.

  • Benjamin DAHAN

We wanted to go on a Colosseum / Palatine / Forum tour with a bunch of friend and we chose Roman Vacations because of the positive reviews. Turns out the reviews were more than deserved! We had the chance to have Mircea as our guide. Honestly this guy is amazing... His English is flawless, his knowledge is impressive and he is an unstoppable (good) jokes machine! If you want to know everything about Rome and its amazing monuments and history, don't hesitate, just book a tour with this guy!

  • Zulaikha Tariq

It was a beautiful experience. Our tour guide showed us the Roman Empire and explained the history in detail. It was a group of 10-12 people and our tour guide showed us around. It was super crowded though! Beware of the guy’s standing outside of the Roman Empire while you exit. They will try to fool you around with some stupid bracelet of good luck Apparently!!!! Then he will ask you for money. I will be having a tour with this company in the future for the spots i missed in this visit.

  • Camilo Eduardo Arévalo Arteaga

¡Fue increíble! Tomamos el tour al coliseo y todo fue como lo esperado o incluso mejor. Fuimos un grupo de dos familia con niños, a los niños les dieron un bonito detalle para que se distraigan durante el recorrido y empezar de la mejor manera. El recorrido nos lo hizo Mith, y desde que empezamos a caminar nos empezó a contar todo el recorrido, desde afuera del coliseo, por dentro y hasta en la salida. Lo recomiendo mucho, vale la pena el costo del tour guiado, no se arrepentirán.

  • Andrew Murray

We had a tour of the Jewish Ghetto with Brian and it was wonderful. Brilliant insight into such an interesting part of Rome. The tour covered the whole history of the ghetto from it's founding to the horrors of the holocaust. While there were a lot of sad stories there were plenty of stories that show the good side of humanity. Brian was friendly, knowledgeable, happy to answer our questions, and clearly has a passion for the area and topic. Would highly recomend this tour.

  • Steven Arcanti

A great tour of Palatine Hill, Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Mircea has lots of legitimate knowledge of history and is obviously passionate about the subject. He paced the tour masterfully starting us with Palatine Hill and ending with the Colosseum. Lots of humor injected into the tour made it even better. Roman Vacation your groups are small—we had 15, but they never have more than 20 guests—so you are not lost a a crowd like many others. Highly recommended !

  • Victoria Morrison

Mitch was an excellent tour guide of the coliseum and palatine hill. Informative and an entertaining story-teller… he certainly knows his stuff and brought much of the history to life. He’s accommodating and ensured we were all having an enjoyable time. Roman vacations itself was very organized and communicative. Tour group was kept very reasonably sized (there were 9 of us) and got us into the locations quickly. Highly recommend- great price for the tour!

  • Rosie C

Our trip to Rome was an opportunity of a lifetime. Our tour of the Colosseum was spectacular, with Roman Vacations tour company. They are located near the Colosseum, easy to find, lovely people to deal with. Fascinating to learn how they raised the animals to the arena floor. The walking tours with Roman Vacations are phenomenal. The guides are so knowledgeable, and take you away from there tourist traps, to see the places that show you the real Italy

  • Marc Lombardo

We had a tour of the Coliseum and Palatine Hill with Mirca who was an excellent guide. He was highly knowledgeable, humorous, and a very engaging storyeller. The pace of the tour was a bit fast at some parts but this is understandable given the depth of information being explored. Our communication and coordination with the staff at Roman Vacations was smooth and they were very kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend the company and guide.

  • Rudy Capistrano

Completed a tour of the colloseum, pallatine hill, and forum, Rich was very very knowledgeable and willing to answer questions, highly recommend him as a tour guide. Our group was challenged with a baby stroller and Rich helped the couple carry the stroller through lots of stairs. Strongly suggest for those considering taking this tour to have VERY COMFORTABLE walking/running shoes. The paths are mostly uneven surfaces. Very enjoyable tour.

  • Patricia Martin

Our tour guide, Benjamin, was excellent and a fountain of knowledge! He made sure that the group was always together while keeping others out of our group and answering others' questions. Our group never really had any questions due to Benjamin being so thorough and well prepared. Definitely be prepared to walk, but also be prepared for absolutely stunning views! Thanks to Roman Vacations and especially Benjamin for a wonderful day!

  • Brielle F

Very dishonest company. The tour operators lied to us about providing a refund when they changed the itinerary last minute and even told Viator we threatened them to avoid a refund, which is absolutely ridiculous. The owners blamed us and their team; they have lied the entire process. We DO NOT recommend them to anyone, they operate like scammers. We have taken dozens of tours and have never experienced such poor customer service.

  • Diane Conn

Interesting, thorough, knowledgeable, and fun. These tours are terrific - so far have taken the 3 hour Coliseum & Forum tour, and the 3 hour Jewish Ghetto tours. WOW Learned a lot, helpful guides who were great about questions and making sure all were comfortable and had enough water. Looking forward to more from Roman Vacations. Their whole team is terrific from phone calls to finding them to the tours. Suggest you try them!

  • Kieran Tracey

Booked a small group tour of the Colosseum, Roman forum and Palatine hill. Found out at the meeting point that we were the only people booked at that time. Our guide Mircea was simply brilliant!! His knowledge and passion for the area was fantastic. Having our own tour guide was great! The detail about the Forum and Palatine hill was brilliant. Fantastic value for money!! Fantastic guide!! Overall really great service.

  • carl everaerts

Mircea is one of the best guides i've had in my life for the explanation of a historical site (colosseum and Roman forum ,Palatine hills) and all that happened around and in it ,he told it with great passion and fun ,even stories that one would never have known otherwise, for sure he knows his business :) top experience for sure and worth every penny ! once again THANKS Mircea for the amazing experience

  • Jesse Sells

Brian is an extraordinary guide. His Jewish Ghetto tour is no turnkey experience but an intimate journey into the deep roots Jews have in Rome had since ancient times. This was our favorite tour out of all our experiences (we did Vatican & Colosseum as well). Definitely book this trip and get both an emotional perspective of life in the Jewish Ghetto and and a rarely heard perspective on Roman history.

  • Molly Allen

We took this tour last minute and it was such a great value! Mircea jam packed so much information and history in our 2 1/2 hour tour of the Forum and Colosseum. There were only 10 of us and they purposefully keep their groups small. He kept us entertained with his fun sense of humor. Well worth the time instead of going blindly by ourselves. Luckily, we beat the rain (see photo). Thanks Mircea!

  • Karen Benway

I took the ‘Rome at Night’ w James. Best tour I’ve ever taken & this is my 4th trip to Rome. James is so engaging, smart, fun & interesting. He was constantly telling historical facts but also intriguing facts about people. My friends & family will seek him out when they travel to Rome. Bravo James! I took tour last year with James & took again this year with my son. My son also loved the tour.

  • TP Lynch

We went on a tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine today with this tour group. Barbara was our guide and she was excellent. It was a nice small group of about 18, it started promptly, the audio was clear throughout, her English excellent and her knowledge was great. She brought us through all areas with no fuss and interacted kindly with my hot and tired children. Highly recommend.

  • Terry Speksnijder

It was a magnificent trip with our guide of Roman Vacations! We loved the overall introduction into the ancient Rome and the relaxed way of giving us all kind of facts and showing us around in the Jewish quarter. We liked the humor of the guide and also his ability to not avoid the dark side of the history of the Jewish people in Rome. We certainly recomment a tour with Roman Vacations!!

  • shana kinney

We took two tours (night piazza and colosseum/forum) over two days and had the best experience! Highly recommend the company and tour guides. They provide outstanding information and quality customer service from the first communication through after the tour. They went above and beyond to provide recommendations for dinner and drinks and the favorite local spots in the city.

  • Jess Rushwood

Athuro did our tour around the Colosseum, Palatine and Roman Forum. He was absolutely excellent, so funny and knowledgeable and made the tour so enjoyable. Absolutely worth the money and would love to tour with him again next time I'm in Rome. We booked last minute the day before and everything was handled very well. He even gave us local restaurant suggestions at the end.

  • D Y

What an amazing tour of the Colosseum!! Mirch was such an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and also funny. Our group only had 12 people, unlike other guided tours that usually book 20 or more. The 2.5 hours flew by because of how good of a time it was. They were very fairly priced and would highly recommend them if you are looking to book a guided tour in Rome.

  • Katie Babin

The tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum was amazing! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and delivered the history in a very interesting way. The small group allowed us to ask questions and helped us to feel comfortable getting to know each other. The duration of the tour and quality of the experience is definitely worth the price.

  • GLYN Burns

Ancient Rome Walking Tour with Brian from Roman Vacations. This was an excellent tour! Brian is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the history (both ancient and recent) and archaeology of the Colosseum and Roman Forum. His wealth of knowledge of the peoples and their experiences here through the centuries was remarkable. Thoroughly recommended!

  • Theodore Muller

Our tour of Rome was fantastic! Angela did a wonderful job. She was personable and engaging and really knew her stuff. She clearly loves what she does and loves Roman history and we really enjoyed her energy and engagement and how see made it super fun for all of us. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Well done Angela. Thank you! ️️️

  • Trine Bach

Vores guide havde en enorm viden og var utrolig god til at få os til at føle, at vi var med i den tid. Navnet undslipper mig men skulle have været guide siden han var teenager. Kunne mærke at han brændte for historien både med humor og den brede viden. Han kunne svare på alle spørgsmål. Utrolig god tur, vi takker mange gange herfra Danmark af.

  • Natalie Hayes

Brian was amazing - he had such a great knowledge of the Jewish Ghetto and other buildings along the way, explained everything so clearly and was very patient and friendly. I wish we could have him show us around the rest of Rome; he clearly knew so many amazing things! Highly recommend this tour and guide - it was worth it, even in the rain!

  • Cassie Milana

So glad we booked the tour of the Colosseum with Roman Vacations. Not only was our guide super knowledgeable, knew absolutely everything I think a person could, even the smallest details, he was so engaging so the time really flew. Definitely worth it because knowing the history behind everything makes the whole area so much more impressive!

  • KC Ching

Easy to locate the office and the staff were nice and welcoming We booked a tour for Palantine hills, Roman Forum and the Colosseo. Our guide Giorgio was engaged and had great knowledge in the history of the locations. If you are interested to visit these places, a guided tour will elevate the experience significantly. Highly recommended.

  • Fabio Summermatter

Excellent Tour, we did the Colosseum and the Forum. Everything was organized very well, small tour, very knowledgeable guide (I couldn’t find a question he couldn’t answer) with good humor. This company seems to be run by „friends & family“, not the mass tourism we got with other operators. Super happy, we’ll definitely be back.

  • Laura Bayne

Hands down the best tour guide I have ever had. Mircea’s depth and breadth of knowledge was unlimited. We toured the Colosseum and Palantine and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and learned a ton. Our tour group was so much smaller than the others we saw. It felt like a friend giving us a tour rather than a mass production.

  • Mich Chelle

Benjamin gave my family an amazing tour of the Roman Colosseum. He was very informative and shared a ton of knowledge. He answered questions along the way and offered assistance to those in our group who had trouble walking. In a word, he was amazing! One of the best tour guides we had while in Italy. Grazie, Benjamin!!

  • Eren Salih

Little Barb really made the tour for us! It was a great deal of fun, educational and straight up beautiful - I could not recommend her and the team at Roman Vacations more! The depth of the Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill gave us a huge amount of pictures and memories to take home with us - we love you Barb!

  • Betsy Justis

Guided tour of the colosseum was dull, uninspiring, and boring. I was so disappointed. I wish I had asked for a refund b/c it really wasn't the true five-star guided tour experience I had read about on this provider's site that everyone raved about and expected So.Much.More. Rest of the trip was great, thankfully.

  • Federico Pasquale

We had an amazing experience with Roman Vacations, the tour guide was very professional and knowledgeable. He told us all the secrets about the Jewish Ghetto and Trastévere. The tour was not only informative but also entertaining and fun. I learnt a lot of new things about this places in Rome. Highly recommended!

  • Renee Maccallum

Amazing. Tour guide was so knowledgeable and charismatic. 3 hour tour that is well worth the money. We learned so much during it. The staff was welcoming and organized. Location super easy to find. All around it exceeded our expectations. 100% recommend to anyone looking to explore the Colosseum and Roman Forum.

  • Q Delgado

Thank you Barbara for giving us a detailed tour of the Colosseum. The tour was approximately 2 and half hours long. During the tour, Barbara would stop and allow us to take pictures. She was also very patient and answered all of our questions. After the tour was complete, my daughter said she loved the tour.

  • Ashley Legge

Wonderful, thoughtful and knowledgeable tour. Our guide customized the tour to our group and it was so wonderful to be with a guide who enjoys doing this tour so much!! Wow! What a difference it made being in a small group to move through the crowds and get the one on one experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

  • Arely Diaz

Outstanding tour! Our group to the colosseum was small enough (~13) where we could ask questions at every point, it felt very intimate and personalized. The tour guides are extremely professional and knowledgeable. If you want to leave Rome feeling like you learned something, I recommend this company!

  • cary hirschfield

James took us on one of the most informative tours we’ve had in our 30 years of travel. He used both broad strokes and fine detail to educate us not only in the aspects of our Jewish Ghetto tour, but the general history of Rome. We look forward to exploring more of Rome with him and his colleagues.

  • Itziar Azua

We loved the tour! We had a great tourist guide and he was really nice to our kids. Visited the forum and Coliseum. He spoke really good English and had really cool insights. The office is close and the staff there was also super nice and friendly. The tour started on time and was really good.

  • sheetmusicsinger

Our family wanted to say that Brian’s tour of Rome’s Jewish Ghetto area was knowledgeable, thoughtful and enlightening. As a historian, he also added relevant anecdotes with a touch of humor! We learned so much back history about Rome, the church and the valor of everyday citizens.

  • jade kennerson

We had a brilliant day today doing the walking tour of the colosseum and Forum. Our guide Arturo was fantastic! He really knew his stuff and we have learnt so much today. I came with my 12 year old son and I would recommend to everyone. Really glad we booked. Thank you Arturo!

  • Joe Kaiser

The guide, Angela, was excellent. She provided an interesting perspective of both religious, political and historical facts. She was able to respond to everyone’s questions. It was a small group as advertised so it made it fun. I strongly recommend this trip and this company.

  • Kimberly Lee

We took a tour of the Colosseum and Palatine Hill with Roman Vacations. It was amazing! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and answered all questions that we had. It was one of the best tours that I have ever taken. If you need a tour guide in Rome, hire this company.

  • Adam Blandford

Fantastic small tour of Rome by Angela, provided great i sight and an amazing knowledge of the history of Rome. Very engaging, incorporating some humour and fun facts. Would highly recommend this small group tour option for a more personal exploration of this amazing city.

  • Gayathri Krishnamoorthy

We took the Colosseum, Roman forum and palentine hill tour. The tour started in time and they took us in skipping the line. It was easy to navigate inside and our guide gave us a good explanation about the gladiators and the roman history. Overall nice experience.

  • Sunny Isles

We took the Colosseum and Palatine hill tour. Tour started on a nearby side street (nice coffee shop on the corner). The tour was so informative and Mircea was able to paint a comprehensive picture of Roman life. Our group had 15 people, highly recommend.

  • Susan McAnany

We booked a Colosseum Tour via Roman Vacations (Colosseum.Tours) over a month in advance. They emailed us less than 24 hours before our scheduled tour time telling us that our tour was cancelled given lack of space. We were very disappointed.

  • Adam Forsyth

"Mitchell" did an absolutely amazing job leading our small group tour of the colosseum and forum. His knowledge of the political history as well as the buildings made for a supremely educational and enjoyable tour. Would recommend to anyone.

  • Alister Smith

Absolutely exceeded all expectations which were already high. Truly recommend doing the 3 hour Palatine Hill and Colosseum together. Mircha our guide was incredible… amazing knowledge of history with great engaging and passionate delivery.

  • Lisa Edelberg

Daniel was outstanding. We were the only two people on this tour and we had such an amazing time seeing the beautiful city of Rome. Daniel stopped at every photo up and took some amazing pictures of us. Thank you guys for an amazing tour!

  • Ursula Reynolds

This tour was more than we expected. Our guide was very knowledgeable, entertaining and sweet. Pointed out all interesting sites that we would surely of missed/would not have appreciated it as much. Would definitely recommend :)

Fantastic tour of the Roman Forum and Colleseum. Our guide, Mircea, was extremely knowledgeable and did his best to look after us in the heat and getting us in and through lines nice and quick. Would definitely recommend!

Our tour guide was impressive. He knew so many details on each part of the tour and articulated them so well. He also made sure we had bathroom and water breaks. Probably the best tour I have been on in my 68 years.

  • William Porter

Let's just say, we had a wonderful time. RV provided an excellent service, including arranging our tours and providing a historical perspective of all the sites we visited. I highly recommend this tour company.
