Guide Donato was fantastic, knowledgeable and great with the children
Roberta was great! Kept the kids, 7 and 3, engaged with facts about the colosseum and a game. Good tour for the adults as well.
We had a fantastic tour with Giulia who was great at engaging with the kids and pacing the tour appropriately. The length was perfect. She also gave some useful tips for Rome which were very helpful :)
We had a private tour with Roberta. We all loved it. It was very informative and the perfect amount of time for my girls aged 10 and 12. Roberta was fantastic, she kept the girls entertained and explained things very well. My kids really bonded well with her and made sure I completed this review. Thanks Roberta from Sophie and Micaela from Australia!
Alessandra was great! She made the tour so fun and engaging. Very knowledgeable about the history of the colosseum. We were encouraged to ask lots of questions by playing a game. Because of this, we learned so much!
Great family friendly tour. Roberta was exceptional. She ran a quiz throughout the tour (Adults vs Kids) and had a prize at the end for the winning team. Roberta had props for a mock gladiator dual and made the tour very fun for the kids. We would highly recommend this tour. Bravo!
We went on the tour with two kids (age 7 and 10yo). Martina was very informative and made our tour exceptionally entertaining. We loved every bit of it and so glad we booked!
Alessandra was fantastic, a pure 10/10 tour given by her! We wouldn’t have even paid attention to half the things she pointed out had she not been there. Really made our visit to the Colosseum 1000 times better. Friendly, kind and very knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone going to Rome!
Martina was incredible. We had 3 kids (12,10,7) as well as three other kids from two other groups and all of the children were hanging on every word Martina was telling them. She did such an amazing job keeping the kids engaged. The pace and time was perfect to see everything with kids. Highly recommend this tour if you are in Rome with children.
Donato was an amazing and thoughtful tour guide. He was able to get our tired and grumpy kids excited about the tour and made it fun and engaging. I had three kids, 10 and under, on the tour. I highly recommend it!
