Best colosseum guide!
Our guide, Anca, was great! Very personable, prepared, detailed, and answered all our questions. She even tailored the tour to our interests. Definitely would ask for her, if you can!

Enzo was great at...
Enzo was great at communicating information about changes to the tickets. Simona was our guide and she was fantastic. She shared information that you would not find in a guide book. She took an active interest in making sure we learned about the history or Rome and also gave us some good recommendations on places to eat. She had an absolute passion for history and it made the tour more fun!

Best way to see the colosseum
This was the best way to see the Colosseum. Simona was our guide and she did a fabulous job. Very informative and included many stories to explain and give you a visual of the original structures. She had a binder of photos so you could see what many sites looked like in their original form. You could tell she loved her job and truly had passion. The best tour guide we had on our trip to Italy.
