The experience was horrible. I almost had to call the police at the establishment. I am preparing a formal complaint to report this service to the authorities.

Terrible experience. Three days before the event, they arbitrarily changed the entrance to the Colosseum due to alleged system issues, causing us significant organizational difficulties.
This was such a great option for being able to skip the line at the Vatican and Colosseum. It was very easy to obtain all the tickets and receive information.
The experience itself was amazing, but we paid €50 each for these tickets and when we arrived, they literally handed us tickets that were marked €25 each. They had doubled the price with a 100% markup, which felt really misleading and left a bad impression despite the experience itself being great.
Dear Customer, Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. Unfortunately, your review is anonymous, which does not allow us to trace your booking. However, we would like to clarify one point regarding your comment about the price: you did not purchase a simple ticket, but a package that combines the cost of entry tickets with a range of additional services. These include, in addition to our assistance, for the Colosseum for example the Ancient Rome multimedia video (valued at €15) and the walking tour in English of the city center (valued at €15), which departs every day at 11:30 from our office in Piazza Ara Coeli. We would be happy to provide you with further details if you send us your booking code via email at info@touristation.it. Best regards, Touristation Customer Service
