Private Colosseum Tour with Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill

Great tour

Great tour! Evi gave us a great overall experience- would recommend.

Excellent tour with Michele. Well organized, good pace for our group of 7 incl. one toddler and stroller / baby allowing us to skip huge lines. Michele was a wealth of information mixing humor with historical detail and context of the lives Gladiators lead in Roman culture and society. We also appreciated that he was extremely courteous and had an excellent command of English for our US based family.

Great Tour

We really enjoyed this tour, in large part because our guide, Serena, was fantastic. This tour covers a lot of ground because there is so much to see. Serena covered the big stuff of course, but also pointed out several small fascinating details that aren't in any guidebooks and I would have never noticed. My teenage kids really loved this tour.

Worthwhile Private Colosseum Tour

Our family of five enjoyed our private tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill with our guide, Eleanor. Her tour was interesting and informative. We definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent Tour and Guide

Our private tour with our guide Serena was amazing! First of all, Serena was extremely nice and a very engaging speaker. She really brought everything to life. Secondly, the private tour is one of the best ways to see and learn; the ability to have a conversation makes it all much better. Finally, the tour is wonderful; seeing the things that we had only heard about in school really made our trip amazing.

Great tour guide

We a fantastic tour guide named Elena that took us through the Colosseum and Hill and the Roman form. We have five kids ages 2 to 14 and four adults, and she was absolutely patient perfect and spoke to us in a way where we could understand everything that was around us. I can’t recommend this company enough!

Incredible experience in Rome

Our group of six (four adults, two children) had an excellent experience with Monica, our tour guide, through the Amphitheatrum Flavium (a.k.a. Colosseum), Palatine Hill, and the Forum. No one in our party had any Italian language skills, but Monica spoke English completely fluently. She had a trove of information on Roman history in general, as well as deep knowledge of the specific areas we were visiting. It was an incredible experience!

Another 5 Stars for the Great Kate of Rome!

After our first incredible tour with Kate, we knew she was something special. When we met her for our second adventure, exploring the Coliseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. Kate’s warmth and charisma made the day feel effortlessly fun, and her unparalleled knowledge brought these ancient sites to life in a way we could never have imagined. Kate has an extraordinary ability to transport you back in time, weaving fascinating stories about gladiators, emperors, and Roman life into the grandeur of the ruins. She made history tangible, helping us truly appreciate the significance of what we were seeing while keeping the experience lighthearted and engaging. What truly sets Kate apart is how deeply she cares about her clients. She tailored the tour perfectly to our interests and pace, ensuring we got the most out of every moment without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Her enthusiasm is infectious, and her genuine kindness shines through in everything she does. By the end of the tour, we weren’t just admiring the Coliseum and the Forum—we were completely in awe of Kate herself. If you’re lucky enough to book her for a tour, don’t hesitate. Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, Kate will make your visit unforgettable. She’s not just a guide; to us, she’s the Great Kate of Rome (that’s what we named her and so fitting) and we can’t wait to come back and explore more with her! With love dear Kate, see you in Napa! Cheers, Honeymoon Standaras

Wow!

I thought I had read everything about some of these sights. Daniel blew my mind with new 🆕 insights that brought these places to life for me in an unexpected way. He was an amazing tour guide. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Colosseum and Roman forum tour

We had a fantastic experience, touring the Colosseum and the Roman forum with our guide Bogdan. He was a wealth of knowledge and clearly had a lot of experience guiding people through this epic landmark. He pointed out things we would’ve never noticed on our own and was able to answer our endless questions about the history, art, and culture that this area of Rome exudes. Thanks again, Bogdan for such a wonderful experience.

Giovanni outstanding guide

Giovanni was enthusiastic, patient , and very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. He improvised well as we dodged crowded points and explored our interests. A very enjoyable time!!

Wonderful tour with knowledgeable guide

Our tour was amazing! Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable about the history of the colosseum and surrounding area. He had pictures that showed the sites in their former glory so you could imagine what you were seeing.

Francesco is an excellent tour guide! We learned a great deal and had fun at the same time.

AWESOME GUIDE

We booked 2 tours through the tour guy. Eleonora was our guide for the Colosseum and she was very knowledgeable and it was obvious she loved to share it with us. Elizabeth for the Vatican was the same. We will definitely use the tour guy for all future travels!!!

Colosseum Tour

Giovanni was our guide and was superb. This tour along with the private tour of the Vatican were the highlights of our time in Rome.

Patricia was great!!

Very calm and relaxing - Patricia is just what we needed on our Colosseum tour. She was attentive to my father’s needs as he has recently been needing to walk with a cane. She was also very informative and had answers to all of our questions. Thank you and I’ll be recommending The Tour Guy for private tours in Rome and other cities. This was the second consecutive day of amazing experiences.

The Tour guide everyone wants but rarely gets

We had Giovanni Danna as our guide for a private tour of the Colosseum, forum and surrounding area. The breadth and scope of his knowledge of Roman history in connection with these sites and in general was astounding. Moreover, his presentation of these facts was vivid and engrossing.

Very lovely and knowledgable woman who did our private tour. Would highly recommend.
