We were thrilled with this tour. It was indeed a pleasure to skip the queues, our main reason for booking it. However, the real bonus was in the guide's tour. His enthusiasm and command of the subject made the Colosseum really come alive for us. He was very inclusive of our 9 year old, the only child present, and made something that could have been quite dry and academic enormously exciting.

We skipped the line to get inside the Colosseum and our guide seemed to know a lot about Roman history. Everything was good except the weather was tooooo hot in August.

This was a wonderful tour! Not having to wait in line was a bonus and have a guide was great to explain all of the significance of the parts of the Colosseum and the forum.

The tour guide was excellent and gave us an education that we would not have received on our own. I enjoyed no waiting in line access. Colosseum especially has huge lines to get in.

This trip was worth every penny. We were guided for 3 hours. Our guide was very informative and funny and kept my two boys, aged 12 and 14, riveted for the whole 3 hours despite the heat!

Brilliant tour and guide, very informative. We would have known very little about the Colosseum if it wasn't for the expertise of the guide, superb.

Our guide was fantastic! He totally added to magic of being in Rome. His knowledge of the area and history was great. I can't imagine having done the Colosseum without his commentary. The skip the line feature was terrific. As we passed the long lines waiting for tickets, we all commented on how we couldn't imagine waiting in the lines for hours before even beginning to see anything. Even the directions for meeting the guide were very precise and accurate. The headsets for hearing our guide clearly were great, we were very happy to have them so we wouldn't have to strain to hear him. His English was perfect. I would gladly book another tour through this same company.
