Skip-the-line Colosseum Tour with Roman Forum & Palatine Hill

We are glad we booked this tour. The stories, the insight and information regarding those ancient Roman places have enriched our understanding and gave us a good perspective on culture in those times. Our guide Marzy was very professional, informative, engaging and answered all questions that came from our group. She made it all a very enjoyable tour. Highly recommended!

A must-do while in Roma

Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum Guided Tour | Skip the Line Tickets

Eddie was our guide and I have to say he was one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. He did such a great job of explaining the necessary stuff and putting all of the information into a digestible nutshell rather than a heap of information that left you with a headache. Make sure to book an earlier tour to avoid the crowds and the heat! Couldn’t have asked for a better day

Great tour and guide

Skip the Line: Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill Tour

If you like history, this is a must. Our tour guide was Donald and he was spectacular. Very knowledgeable, very funny, and very nice. He was able to answer any questions people had and pointed out some things that I never wouldve even noticed with it. You get to see virtually all the coliseum and forum/hill. A great tour all around.

Fantastic day

Skip the Line: Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill Tour

Great experience, tour guide was fantastic and knowledgeable. Added touch of showing photos on tablet really gave an insight into the history of the colosseum. Bonus points for personally interacting with everyone.

Perfect tour of Colesseum, Forum and Palentine Hill.

Colosseum Underground and Roman Forum Small Group Tour

Gigi was an excellent tour guide. Loved his sense of humour and his extensive knowledge. It was a great tour my only disappointment was we had booked a small tour for 6 people and somehow we ended up in a group of 25.

Great experience!

Best tour possible!

Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum Guided Tour | Skip the Line Tickets

Our guide Elis outstanding! So knowledgeable it was incredible! So much beautiful history told in such a way that we could picture it! Absolutely stunning!

Skip the line makes a huge difference

Sandra_R, May 2023

Exclusive Gladiator Arena - The Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum Tour

It was definitely worth the skip the line tickets & our guide was informative and clearly knew a lot about the history of the places we visited. He ensured we got plenty of photo opportunities in less busy spots. We spent most of the tour at the Colosseum but still had time to explore The Forum once the formal tour ended. For an afternoon tour we would recommend not expending too much energy in the morning as the tour is comprehensive.

This tour was amazing!...

Shamira_B, May 2023

Colosseum Arena Floor Tour with Roman Forum
