It was an amazing tour! Standing on the arena floor of the gladiators made my husband so happy! Eugenia was an amazing , kind and knowledgeable guide! She also was very helpful in navigating the tour for my son who needs a mobility scooter to get around! It was 10/10 with Eugenia

Our guide, Renata, was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and shared much historical and cultural information which made our experience very educational and meaningful. Renata had a warm and kind personality. Our active almost 3 year old grandson was along for the tour and she was very patient and accommodating. Renata made some changes in our tour itinerary to make it easier for him to keep pace. We would definitely recommend her and will use her in the future when we return.
Excellent tour Guia met us on time she was very knowledgeable of the area and the pace was excellent no rush plenty of stops to educate us on the surroundings she seem to make a special effort to find a shady area to stop as it was a very hot day and the breezes were limited Enjoyed the elevator in the colosseum thanks to pope John Paul The Roman’s were in a lot better shape than me the stairs were brutal for my aging knees
Amazing! Kristine who helped me book was so helpful and communicative. Eugenia was our guide and she was so nice and knowledgeable. Very interesting tour and worth it!
Our tour was much enjoyed, lead by a woman tour guide (I’m unsure of her name sorry) who grew up in Rome so it was really insightful to hear of her experiences growing up in these areas. She knew some small details which we may not have got from other guides. Extremely informative we were very happy to have her showing us around.
Eugenia was an excellent guide and it was a wonderful introduction to the history and grandeur of Rome!
This was our second Private Tour with Through Eternity and we felt that it was well worth the money if you can do it! With the private tour we navigated crowds with agility and found quiet spots (in the shade!) to discuss the various sights. The private tour allows for a back and forth conversation that just cannot happen on a group tour. Santi provided insights throughout the tour. And he was quick to help us and watch out for our needs which I am so grateful for!
We had an outstanding experience with Through Eternity Tours during our private Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill tour. Our guide, Gracelyn Monaco, was exceptional. She was incredibly patient with our family of 8, including our younger children, and did a fantastic job keeping both the kids and adults engaged throughout the entire experience. Her knowledge of Roman history, the Colosseum, gladiators, the Forum, and Palatine Hill was excellent, and she explained everything in a way that was informative, engaging, and easy to follow. She also handled our group wonderfully when we needed a bathroom break and moved a little slower than expected, even generously extending the tour by about 20 minutes so we never felt rushed. The tour was one of the highlights of our time in Rome. We would highly recommend Gracelyn and Through Eternity Tours to anyone visiting the Colosseum and Forum, especially families traveling with children.
Thomas Robinson was our tour guide and he did an amazing job explaining all that we were seeing. We were so impressed with not only his knowledge, but his ability to tie everything together. Could not recommend more!
Highly recommend purchasing the private tour. Our guide, Eugenia is very knowledgeable, happy to answer questions and makes sure you get to see and learn about the best of the best.
Our guide, Gracelyn Monaco was fabulous! Highly recommend. She was very personable and relatable to my 13 year old son. She knew where we needed to be and helped us navigate through the large crowd to the location spot for the special underground tour. We did several tours with different companies throughout Italy and she made this one special! I would definitely use Through Eternity Tours again and ask for her specifically next time I’m in Rome!
Our tour guide was very attentive to the different kid 's ages in our group. She was very engaging , and made the tour very enjoyable.
Franchesco was our guide. I've been here twice before. We saw and learned more than both times combined. Unfortunately we did not get to the underground as originally requested due to colosseum limits but they refunded the difference.
Excellent!! Our tour guide was amazing. Very very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!!! Outstanding. Learned so much.
This was the highlight of our time in Rome. And it was all thanks to our guide, Gracelyn. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, so friendly, and just a joy to spend several hours with. Splurging on a private tour for such a vast and complex part of Roman history was the right move. Thank you for the priceless memories!
This was an excellent tour! We had been to the Colosseum before, but only on the upper level. This underground tour gave a much more complete vision of what went on there. Our guide, Eugenia, was warm and friendly, but above all was very knowledgeable and informative. I would highly recommend this tour!
Our guide was very well prepared, entertaining and informative. We had a great and memorable experience!
I'm pretty sure this is the tour we did - it was 3.5 hours on an extremely hot day, but Enrica kept our attention and was fabulously knowledgeable. I learned so much, and really would not have understood what I was seeing in the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill without her explanations. I highly recommend this tour.
