Terrible experience. This Operator and Viator both are Fraud. Lost Euro 100 Euro.
We were at the location 45 minutes before the agreed time, however did not find anyone there. No one called us and the tour operator did not respond to my chat messages on viator. I had to call Viator team on international number and they have only reverted saying they can not refund the money. 100 Euro went down the drain. Please do not trust both this operator and Viator

Disappointed
Don't need to book via an agent as you can purchase tickets yourself online that do exactly the same - however the guide from the agency was extremely helpful and very pleasent
Operator response
dear Mrs Crawley,
thank you for your review. I am happy to know you loved our service and our guide.
However, I am surprised about the rating you gave us.
We meet at the Colosseum and you seemed very happy that we could use our tickets and our guide since you wasn't able to find tickets available online. You also asked me by whatsap to help you to find a taxi driver the next day and I tried to help you even if this is not our job...

Great tour guide knowledge, efficient tour
Very knowledgeable guide, with efficient tour. Great links also to palentine hill and other local sight seeing opportunities. Very hot though so take plenty of water as no taps are located in the colloseum itself.

Wealth of knowledge
Laura was an amazing guide. Her knowledge far exceeded our expectations. We learned many new things and would definitely recommend having her as a guide. She has a true appreciation for the restoration and preservation of history.
