Great sites and exceptional tour guide - Julia was the most amazing tour guide. She had exactly the right mix of intriguing information and fun facts. She is funny, kind, laid back and very bright. She is an ideal ambassador for Italy. The coliseum and forum were exciting to see. Highly recommend.

We love Bigmoma! - Bigmoma was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and passionate which made the tour extremely enjoyable. She was efficient and despite visiting on a busy Saturday we were able to skip the crowds and have a great overall experience. She knew where to take the best photos and managed to make it look like we were the only ones there! We highly recommend Liv and recommend asking for Bigmoma!

Love the coliseum - Elisa with LivTours is a wonderful huide and the tour was spectacular with wonderful views. There is quite a bit of walking and occasionally uneven stone walkways so take your personal physical condition into account (knees and stamina etc)

AMAZING!! - Sarah was delightful; such a beautiful soul with a wealth of knowledge not just regarding the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, but also of a great deal of Italy’s history. As a civil engineer that loves architecture and history, I was over the moon with all the sights and the information that Sarah had to offer. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants a great experience of the Colosseum and the Forum.
