Great half day tour - Great tour that included the full experience ticket giving access to the floor of the colosseum. Tickets were already purchased for us so we got to skip the purchase line. Colosseum staff spot-check photo IDs so unfortunately we needed to carry passports around all day. I was really impressed with the tour of the Palatine Hill and the Roman forum. Much to see but it was well worth it to have a guide tell the story.

Colosseum, Palatine hill and Roman forum - The coliseum is a must see for all visitors in Rome. It was an spectacular scenery. Visitor should come at early Spring when the weather is nice and cool.

Excellent guide, excellent tour. - Our guide, Alessandro from bibbi tours was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and friendly and made sure we saw everything and had time for questions and photos. A small group was great as we could all ask what we wanted to without feeling rushed.

Wonderful small group tour of Colosseum, Palate & Romsn Forum - This tour was great. Many thanks to Bibbo Tours for providing a memorable experience. The day before the tour, they sent a picture of where we were to meet them. The picture helped tremendously since there are so many meeting places. The manager of Bibbo Tours was with the tour director & the guide at the start of the tour to make sure there were no issues. We had 12 people on the tour. Victoria was our guide and she was extremely knowledgeable. The only thing that could have been better was the weather. It rained almost the entire time we toured the Colosseum, Palatine Hill & the Roman Forum. Thank you Bibbo Tours for a great experience!

Rome tour prefect company. - Tour was great and guide was incredibly knowledgeable. Started in the Roman Forum and ended at Colosseum. We had headsets so we could hear and we had plenty of time for photos. Tour company contacted us and made sure we made it there safely. We enjoyed it all.

Amazing tour - way better than going on your own. - The Colosseum is a must-see. Our tour guide, Dennis, was very knowledgeable and made the day fun. Finding the check in site took some time, so pay attention to the booking. Lots of walking and steps so wear comfy shoes. Being on the floor of the Colosseum and seeing the gladiators entrance was worth it. So glad we did the guided tour as it cut lines and learned so much, especially in the Forum/Palentine area.

Gladiator myth busted! - Great guide with a passion for the history and archeology of Rome. She had an in-depth story attached to every little artefact of the Colosseum tour.

Our guide Paola was terrific! - The audio in the Vatican museum and Sistine Chapel was very difficult to understand due to the overlap of our guide’s real voice and the radio amplified voice. We needed to take the earpiece out to hear our guide, in spite of the loud ambient noise. We changed radios in St. Peter’s and had much better quality

Not worth the money - The tour was supposed to be 24 people or less however there was 31 which made it difficult to keep up with the guide. He did not have anything to make his stick out from the crowd, many tours have signs or umbrellas or flags, something to help identify the guide and where they’re going. This one did not. The audio devices were poor quality sound and cut off frequently due to group size. This was far too overpriced for the experience.
