Getting to see and hear about the history of Rome this way was amazing! Luka did an awesome job, even in the heat! Thank you for a great experience.
Luka (with a K!) was a wonderful guide. He was enthusiastic, entertaining, knew many fun facts that were not only fascinating but also an important part of the history of the colosseum tour. Loved him and the whole experience!
Outstanding guide and tour with Annalisa.
We did the private tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill with Sandro and it was a wonderful experience. Sandro is an exceptional guide. He managed to make a visit that is already impressive in itself become something truly special. His explanations were enjoyable, interesting, and full of details, and he knew how to perfectly adapt the visit to us, answering all our questions and making the history of Rome come to life. It is very clear that he knows and enjoys what he does, but above all we want to highlight his warmth, kindness, and the very pleasant way he accompanied us throughout the entire tour. The hours flew by. We are taking home a beautiful memory of Rome and, in large part, it is thanks to him. Sandro, thank you so much for an unforgettable morning. We absolutely recommend him. If we return to Rome, we would love to visit with you again.
My girlfriend and I booked a private tour of the colosseum and ancient city, including Roman forum. We were lucky enough to have Valentina for our tour and she was absolutely fantastic! She gave us a wonderful private tour of the Roman Colosseum and the ancient sites of Rome. We took the morning tour and were able to walk right in. Valentina was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and brought everything to life with fascinating stories, background, and details that we would have missed on our own. We also had great conversations about Rome, Italy, and USA it was like talking to a long-time friend! She also gave us a great recommendations list for Rome. We learned so much and really enjoyed the overall experience, which lasted about 3 hours. We highly recommend this tour and Valentina to anyone looking for an excellent guide in Rome!
Great tour! The tour guide was fluent in english, and he was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He had visual aids for recreations of ruins on his ipad, and he was extremely kind! The tour group was the perfect size. He took our picture whenever asked, and we skipped the line everywhere we went.
Luka was amazing- we learned so much and had a really lovely time on the first day of our tour. He was friendly, funny, and offered many helpful tips for the rest of the trip. Unforgettable experience!
Luka was extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. We joked around and had some laughs and he was accommodating to our needs and wants. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wonderful Colosseum tour experience.
Luka was super engaging and energetic, full of excellent knowledge.
We loved our tour with Luka! Very informative and interesting. Highly recommend
