The guide was amazing, taking care of the doubts and making the tour entertaining, the only bad thing is the Unpunctuality, but still recommended 9/10

The visit was very good. Despite the rain, we were able to appreciate all the places of interest. Our guide, Rita, was knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. The only thing I think it is more advisable for this kind of tours that the guide is a native Spanish speaker, many times it is difficult to understand, no matter how fluent the guide's Spanish is.

Being able to walk through and experience the venue. The wait to get to Palatine Hill was much longer than anticipated. Our group waited over 30 minutes in line , which probably caused us to miss other things on the tour.

Great visit with a fantastic guide. We can only regret that the "priority pass" are not really priority pass as everybody have a priority pass, so we have made the queue during 30 minutes to access to the forum and 1 hour to access to the coliseum

A day in the life, gladiator-style

Walk past the crowds smoothly with your guide into the mighty Colosseum, ready to see and learn everything. The depth of its history embedded in the many-tiered structure is as vast as the monument itself. Watch out for goosebumps as you walk through the Gladiator Gate. Enter the Arena, which once hosted epic historical battles, and don't forget to greet the Arch of Constantine.

View the senator seats up close, from where the royalty entertained themselves to bloodthirsty quarrels. Peek down from the edge of the Arena's floor to discover chambers that once contained wild beasts and pathways the gladiators took. Walk through the entire circumference of the Colosseum, and try to picture it when 80,000 screaming Romans occupied it.

The Roman Forum and Palatine Hill

Step away from the glory of the Colosseum to the Roman Forum, to discover the center of political and social life in Ancient Rome. Visit a vantage point with equally enriching views and history. Learn about it from your guide and take some time to explore it on your own. Next up, trek to the top of Palatine Hill for unparalleled views of the Forum and Circus Maximus.
