El guía Iván es un excelente profesional, no solo por la cantidad de conocimientos que tiene y lo bien que los transmite, sino por su amabilidad, simpatía y gestión del tiempo para explicar, dejar hacer fotos, etc. Después de tres horas, consigue que te quedes con ganas de más!

VICENTE excelente guía , súper ameno y atento al grupo , sabe captar muy bien la atención con anécdotas y datos curiosos sobre la visita … lo más importante que “ ama” lo que hace , su formación como arqueólogo aporta muchísimo. Y le gusta transmitir conocimiento de una manera accesible para todos los públicos ( edades países culturas diferentes) tarea nada sencilla !!! El tour dura literalmente 3 horas y hay que ir bien concienciado para aprovechar al máximo. Dar GRACIAS a Vicente y a Cantab Translate this opinion into English.

VICENTE is an excellent guide, super entertaining and attentive to the group, he knows how to capture attention very well with anecdotes and curious facts about the visit... the most important thing is that he "loves" what he does, his training as an archaeologist contributes a lot. And he likes to transmit knowledge in a way that is accessible to all audiences (different ages, countries, cultures), a task that is not easy! The tour literally lasts 3 hours and you have to go well aware to make the most of it. Give THANKS to Vicente and Cantab Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos encantó la visita al Coliseo, al foro y el Palatino. En mi opinión es muy necesaria hacerla con guía para comprender lo que se está viendo. Nuestra guía Elisa fue muy amable y no explicó con claridad cada parte que íbamos viendo. La única pega es que hay muchísima gente a la vez y que aunque sea una visita guiada, hay que hacer cola para pasar el control y adquirir las entradas. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved the visit to the Colosseum, the forum and the Palatine. In my opinion it is very necessary to do it with a guide to understand what is being seen. Our guide Elisa was very kind and did not explain clearly each part that we were seeing. The only drawback is that there are a lot of people at the same time and that even if it is a guided tour, you have to queue to pass control and buy tickets. Opinion translated. Show original.

Recomiendo ir a primera hora a hacer este tour. Sobre las 10h es hora punta del mismo tour con muchas compañías y punto de reunión, al lado del metro del coliseo. A varios compañeros se nos hizo complicado encontrar al grupo: si llegas por “arriba” debes de entrar al metro y bajar hasta abajo, encontrarás otra boca de salida a la calle, ahí es. Por el resto del tour bien, cola rápida y auriculares para seguir al guía. Muy interesante y bonito. Translate this opinion into English.

I recommend going first thing in the morning to do this tour. Around 10am is rush hour for the same tour with many companies and a meeting point, next to the Coliseum metro. Several of our colleagues found it difficult to find the group: if you arrive at the "top" you must enter the subway and go down to the bottom, you will find another exit to the street, that's it. For the rest of the tour fine, fast queue and headphones to follow the guide. Very interesting and pretty. Opinion translated. Show original.

Es un acierto reservar con antelación y quitarse literalmente kilómetros de cola de espera. En nuestro caso nuestro guía Tom hizo la visita muy amena y entretenida, y estuvo en todo momento preocupado por el bienestar de toda la personas del grupo. Me gustaría que existiese una opción aún más profunda y completa aunque entiendo que en 3 horas no da para más. Muy contentos . Translate this opinion into English.

It is wise to book in advance and literally get rid of kilometers in line. In our case, our guide Tom made the visit very enjoyable and entertaining, and he was at all times concerned about the well-being of all the people in the group. I wish there was an even deeper and more complete option, although I understand that in 3 hours it is not enough. Very happy . Opinion translated. Show original.

Es un tour muy bien explicado, Ignacio fue mi guía y explica bastante bien, todos los detalles, responde preguntas y es muy amable. Pero eso sí, es un tour algo cansado dado que hay muchas cosas que ver, caminar y estar parado. Se recorre todo el Coliseo, como el Palatino, subidas y bajadas. Por lo que recomendaba Ignacio que lo mejor es tratar de separar los tours del Vaticano al del Coliseo, para que no les sea tan pesado, en la medida de lo posible. De mi parte lo recomiendo bastante! Translate this opinion into English.

It is a very well explained tour, Ignacio was my guide and he explains all the details quite well, answers questions and is very friendly. But yes, it is a somewhat tiring tour since there are many things to see, walk and stand. The entire Colosseum is covered, like the Palatine, ups and downs. For what Ignacio recommended that it is best to try to separate the tours of the Vatican from that of the Colosseum, so that it is not so burdensome, as much as possible. I highly recommend it!

La actividad fue increíble, un lugar de ensueño, y una gran guía. Excepto que la atracción dura 3 horas y a las 2 h y 30 min se acabó la excursión. Contando que íbamos con prisa y la actividad termino 30 min antes. Siendo la excursión por 30€, creo que me han robado 5€. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was incredible, a dream place, and a great guide. Except that the attraction lasts 3 hours and at 2:30 the tour is over. Counting that we were in a hurry and the activity ended 30 minutes before. Being the excursion for €30, I think they have stolen €5 from me. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy padre el recorrido, excelente elección de la guía las partes a conocer, lo que no me gustó tanto es que creo que le faltó a la guía más dinamismo para darnos la información, algunos tips o datos curiosos, porque lo hizo difícil de retener y habíamos tenido una excelente experiencia en Francia con el guía Juanjo de España, que era todo lo contrario, muy bueno explicando, nos hacía recordar mucha información con datitos y hacia emocionante el recorrido, casi que lo actuaba Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was very cool, excellent choice of the guide the parts to know, what I did not like so much is that I think the guide lacked more dynamism to give us the information, some tips or curious data, because it made it difficult to retain and We had an excellent experience in France with the guide Juanjo from Spain, who was the complete opposite, very good at explaining, he made us remember a lot of information with data and made the tour exciting, almost acting it out Opinion translated.

Cuando encuentras a una persona que le apasiona y vive lo que cuenta, la experiencia se hace inolvidable. Con Vicente (Vincenzo) fue así. Logró transmitir sus conocimientos de forma clara y muy amena, respondiendo a todas las dudas. Y que te recomiende dónde comer y luego verlo comiendo allí da muestra de su honradez mandándonos a un lugar bueno y barato en lugar del típico turístico y caro. Recomendable 100%. Translate this opinion into English.

When you find a person who is passionate and lives what counts, the experience becomes unforgettable. With Vicente (Vincenzo) it was like that. He managed to transmit his knowledge in a clear and very entertaining way, answering all questions. And that he recommends where to eat and then seeing him eating there shows his honesty by sending us to a good and cheap place instead of the typical and expensive touristy one. Recommended 100%.

Explicacion buena, pero no permitia por el ritmo de caminata, sacar fotos a los puntos explicados. Continuamente se repetia que debiamos llegar al horario de ingreso al Coliseo situacion que, o está mal planificada pues el tour debió empezar con mas tiempo, o modificar los tiempos del recorrido. Hubo solo 1 parada con tiempo para sacar fotos. Translate this opinion into English.

Good explanation, but it did not allow, due to the pace of the walk, to take photos of the explained points. It was continually repeated that we had to arrive at the time of entry to the Colosseum, a situation that is either poorly planned because the tour should have started with more time, or modify the times of the tour. There was only 1 stop with time to take photos. Opinion translated. Show original.
