Bucket List item fulfilled - We were debating whether or not to do a tour, and so glad we did!! Liv Tours was recommended on a podcast I listen to. My husband and I chose this tour because it was a max of six people. We didn’t want to be herded around in large group. Bruno was an excellent guide. Knowledgeable, friendly. Informative. Coliseum arena, roman Forum, Palatine Hill, topped off with a rooftop drink. It was one of the highlights of our visit!!

Dennis is the BOMB!!! - Dennis did a great job!!!! Learned so much information on our tour. I loved how he tied the historical significance of Emperor Titus, at the Titus Arch, that was also recorded in Mark 13:1-3. Amazing

Beautiful - Our tour with Laura and Liv Tours was amazing! She is extremely knowledgable and personable. She took us to all the best photo op spots and gave us time to take photos. The tour was 3 hours and did not feel rushed. There was so much information I felt like we could have gone for another 3 hours. We ended our tour at a rooftop bar and had an aperitif during sunset with a beautiful view. It was the perfect ending to our first day in Rome.

Colosseum with rooftop cocktail - Ribal, our tour guide was wonderful. Saw amazing sites accompanied by a great history lesson. The amount of time spent at each site was perfect and the final stop for a rooftop cocktail was a great way to end the night!

Colosseum last entry - I really enjoyed our LivTour! We got lucky and the remaining people in our tour so it ended up just being me and my mom with our tour guide. Either way, the group of 6 or less is a great way to move quickly around the colosseum to see more and learn more faster. Our guide Federico was great and knew a lot that we wouldn’t have learned from a self/audio tour. The last entry was not bad as I expected in term of crowd and heat (it will be hot anytime of day in August) and going to a rooftop bar afterward was nice! We didn’t spend too much time in the forum because we were too hot and tired to continue on but I’m sure that can be customized by group depending on your ability to spend the full 3 hour tour in the sun. I would recommend this tour!

Memorable experience - Pamen was one of the most informative tour guides we have ever had. Her knowledge was very impressive and was a perfect compliment to the beautiful scenery and historical architecture that she showed us.

Guide top - Agency unfortunately not... - Pamen was brilliant, charming and has a wealth of knowledge about anecdotes. She deserved 5 stars!
However, the agency still spams me with mails, even though I asked them to stop it several times via mail and in the review!
Guide: 5 stars
Agency: 1 star - a shame!
