Explore the iconic Colosseum in Rome with our professional guided tour, offering an in-depth look at this historic monument. As the most visited monument in the world, the Colosseum stands as a symbol of Ancient Roman architecture and engineering.
The most important forum in Ancient Rome, situated on low ground between the Palatine and Capitoline hills. This part is self-guided.
Palatine Hill, one of the oldest parts of Rome, towers 40 meters (130 feet) above the Roman Forum and is the most central of the famous seven hills. This part is self-guided.
So we never got to do this tour because they cancelled on us less than 24 hours before our tour. We had a tight schedule and booked this over 6 months in advance. We did get our money back but since it was late notice all tours were already booked up
The information given on Booking.com was very misleading. After being told it would take a short time to collect our entry tickets to the Colosseum itself ( after already paying for the guided tour) would only be a 20 minute wait turned out to be 1.5 hours. We had three children with us who were very patient and very excited to do the tour. Our tour guild told us he would wait for us all and pointed to where he would be. We eventually collected our tickets went to the designated meeting point and the tour guide had left without us and was no where to be seen. He clearly didn't do a headcount to make sure that he had everyone. We then proceeded to try and gain entry to the Roman forum which is where the tour was starting and was denied this because we had no proof of entry even after explaining that our tour guid had already gone in without us. We paid for a service of £130 that we did not receive. We left with no tour and three very upset children. Booking.com will not refund us.
Arena Tours never arrived to take people on the tour today. Somebody, named Ali claimed to have knowledge and had another man walk people to the top of the metro where he asked them to book with other companies. WTF
What rip off! 50 Euros EACH on the promise we could get in within 15 minutes and that we would be given ta ONE HOUR GUIDED TOUR, then free time in the Collesuem and given tickets to the forum and hill, to be used with 24 hrs). Once we paid We were taken to wait for the guide, and told they would be there in 30 minutes. 40 minutes later no guide and we were told we would get a bonus tour prior to the Collesuem- so 2 hrs. We clamoured around the forum with the fastest speaking guide ( English not first language) in searing heat. Not given an opportunity to explore or take our time. Then back to the Collesuem to stand in a group queue whilst many other groups passed us by. Once we got inside, thoroughly exhausted, on the brink of heat stroke we had a HALF HOUR WORLWIND explation before the guide collected headsett and left - my advice, wait in the queue and get value for money, because this company is total RIP OFF!!
The guide was late. She spoke limited English and seemed to have memorized a script. There was no interaction and she was unable to answer any questions or communicate with the group.
Guide did not show and I received notice of this 1 hour prior to departure. Offer made to reschedule for later in day but did not receive meeting location info until after your started so we could not get there in time. Waiting to hear about reimbursement!
Our guide was ALVISE TARANTELLO, he was amazing! We did walking tours with him each day from 27 Aug to 30 Aug of 2022. He arrived each day on time, and really did an amazing job. His knowledge of the geographic area, it's history, and art are amazing. As he told me, he does this as his full time job, and it certainly shows. I highly recommend his as a tour guide while in Rome. We visited the Vatican, other museums, and many beautiful fountains!
Was notified by email 2 minutes before tour was to commence that they would not be showing up for tour.
I was super ready for walking around and enjoying in Rome. I was expecting a lot from this tour and literally, it satisfied all my tastes. We saw all important things in pure downtown. I learned a lot even little things that not even in books are written. Having a local as a guide is winning option .
Tickets were not yet included in the price. The woman who took the tour wanted to get the whole thing across quickly and was in a bad mood. Her English was so bad that she was barely understood. She didn’t go to the Roman Forum or Colosseum either, but told a few things in front of the Roman Forum with the help of a book and then everyone went off like that. No audio guide either. Many of the group left earlier. It's a waste of time!
Our guide was Pepe. Charming and very instructive and dynamic. 100% recommended and repeatable experience. A 10 in all respects.
We did the tour of the Amphitheater with Juliet our guide we were delighted with it very clear in the explanations and we organized everything very well.
We did the tour with a Spanish guide to Juliet we were marveled with it, with the visit of the Colosseum that made us a perfect Spanish which is difficult to find in Italy, very prepared and very attentive to all the details, we recommend it we felt very good with it.
I really liked this Magnificent Tourist Guide its name Juliet explained everything very well .I recommend you who goes to see the Colosseum that you have this Juliet Tourist Guide.I loved...
Beautiful day, tour with Simone, friendly and helpful guide.... super recommended.. thanks Simone...
I did the tour with Simone, talented and prepared. He spent the time pleasantly addressing the various themes with obvious passion but lightly
Excellent experience in a city as monumental as Rome!!! I recommend the guide Juliet who explained the visit in an excellent way!!!
We did the tour with Juliet, wonderful the visit, we recommend it with this guide Spanish mother tongue, very cultured, it is seen that he handles the subject well and with his agency Arena Tours.
Tour made with Simone, was exhaustive in everything, very nice, very good at explaining the history of Rome.
Simone was our guide and companion of this extraordinary experience. It was very nice and the explanations very precise. To be redone absolutely :)
Very nice and well informed guide, Simone litterers, took us first to the palatine then inside the colosseum. The rain did not help for the first part of the tour, but the srconda part was more comfortable, I recommend comfortable shoes.
I loved the tour with the juliet guide! The experience was a trip to another time, we had a great time! Highly recommended !!!!
I recommend the tour with the julieta guide , has good command of Spanish, and we had an amazing time !!!’ It was a fantastic experience in a wonderful city!
Excellent Service and attention. An unforgettable experience in Rome. Highly recommended and with ample provision for the traveler.
Spectacular tour, excellent guide, I arrived in Rome and did not know how to move or how to distribute the time well since I would be few days in the city and has so many things to know. With this walk I was taken to the most important and famous sites and the guide told us the story of everything, in a didactic and entertaining way. As part of the walk, we were taken to one of the most famous ice cream shops in the city and offered an exquisite ice cream, by the way. Recommended 100%
