Fantastic tour - Fantastic tour. Our guide Samuele was amazing, he was very personable and knowledgeable. He answered every question with great detail. Worth every penny for the tour, for all of the details and history he was able to relay during the time through the Colosseum. Would highly recommend.

LivTours — Great Tour Guides! - We got very lucky with our tour guide — he is an experienced archealogist — providing us with insights and information one can find in in-depth documentaries on Roman history. In addition to sharing with us his knowledge on Roman antiquity, he executed his delivery with a great sense of humor and took us through the Coliseum, the Roman forum, and through the Palatine hills, whilst also giving us time to take pictures and discussing his love of archaeology. I would definitely recommend going with LivTours — you will certainly have a great time learning and exploring.

Great tour with an amazing guide! - Mossimo gave us an amazing tour. He was extremely friendly, knowlegable, and worked well with our daughter who was struggling with the Rome heat. I would absolutely recommend this tour, and would 100% request Mossimo as the guide!

Eva helped us understand the architecture and culture of the colisseum and forum. - We did this tour with Eva - who was very knowledgeable and friendly. We are all architects and particularly interested in the buildings and Eva did a great job explaining how the buildings worked, how the forum was constructed (viewing just the ruins) and also gave us great cultural insight into Roman life - particularly the events and the colosseum.

Amazing Private Tour - This was my first trip to Italy with kids. So, naturally we did a lot of tours to maximize our time and learn about this country. Private tour of Colosseum with Paola F and LivTours was an absolute treat for us. She is passionate and extremely knowledgeable. My 11-year-old son thought that this was the best tour that we had been on. Paola really brought stories to life. She also made suggestions on where to take best photos and helped us with the family pics. I would highly recommend it.

Private Colosseum Tour - We thoroughly enjoyed our Colosseum tour with Giulia E. She was very knowledgeable and fun to listen to. We learned so much from her. In fact, we learned many things that were valuable to know during our visits in Italy. We visited other cities and we frequently were able to understand the places more fully because of the history and information that she shared with us. Fantastic tour and tour guide!

Worst case scenario - I didn't get to experience my booking. I booked through viator and changed the time through viator. When we got to Rome the tour agency never got my amendment. And we missed our colosseum tour.
