Maggie was brilliant! 🤩 Very informative guide with super knowledge. Would highly recommend.
A grand experience with brando. so much effort in care went into our experience shaping our love for the history and tour.
Giovani was a wonderful guide! Prompt, courteous, funny, knowledgeable and engaging. We were literally the first people in line at the entrance gate and were able to get many great photo ops before the crowds rolled in. This tour - and guide - were exactly what our group was looking for.
We had an excellent experience with Francesca (Francykind). My kids were tired and hot and she was very patient and took us to the most important sites and got us through through the tour quickly and efficiently. Highly recommend!
Our your guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We were at the wrong meeting point and she messaged me to check on us. It is helpful with a family of hot kids to have a guide shepherding us through the lines!
Our guide, Marco was excellent! Completely changed what we thought we knew about the Colosseum. We loved the one hour express tour. It was perfect for our group, especially in the heat. Without Marco walking through the Colosseum would have been meaningless. Highly recommend him and LIV tours!
We had 3 tours while in Rome. This one by far was the best! We did the private tour with Thomas. He made it fun and was extremely knowledgeable. He had so much passion in what he was explaining.
We had heard that a lot of tourists were having trouble with 3rd party bookings for the Colosseum, so we went straight to the Liv Tours as they were highly recommended. Instructions and booking details were straight forward. Our guide was Emmanuel and he was very engaging and enthusiastic providing us with excellent history, showing us interesting sections, telling us stories and keeping the tour moving along with good humour. We had an excellent morning and thoroughly recommend the tour.
The tour was amazing. She tailored the tour around what we wanted to do and made us feel very special.
Great tour with honest guide about the history of Rome.
