Barbara, Best Guide Ever!

One year ago this week, we were standing in awe at the Colosseum, guided by the incredible Barbara. Her warm personality and deep knowledge of Rome and its history made the experience unforgettable. We feel so fortunate to have had her as our guide, and I’ve shared her name with many friends who dream of visiting Rome someday—she truly made our trip special.

Express and concise!

Yet very informative! Maybe someone in your party is tired of long days of exploring and wants to get to sit down with a spritz…this is your choice. The entrance will amaze you and the arena will take you back to a time that is unimaginable. Francesca was a wonderful guide. Do not miss this tour of the colosseum

Must-do if you love Roman history

We avoided the biggest crowds. The Arena Floor is a highlight. Great weather for summer morning.

So special to stand on the floor

I can’t imagine visiting the Colosseum any other way now.

Skip-the-line is worth it!

Middle of summer — super crowded outside, but not for us. Amazing guide too.

Perfect short tour for busy schedules

Only 90 minutes but so packed with stories. Weather was warm but nice.

Even better than photos

Seeing the underground passages and Arena Floor was unreal. Perfect weather too.
