    Eugene from Crown Tours was fantastic and added so much context to the visit. He really helped to paint a picture of what the Roman Forum and Colosseum once were and had so much knowledge of their history. Would highly recommend doing a tour rather than just purchasing the entry ticket.

    It was amazing. Loved our guide whose name was Giosapine or something like this. He asked to call him Joseph if we didn't remember his name. He made sure that everyone was comfortable even in the scorching heat. He made sure we found shade wherever it was possible. He waited for people who took washroom breaks or filled their water bottles. He even took pictures for people. He was very well educated about the whole history, proficient in English. Overall great experience

    Lumi was an excellent tour guide. Fun, knowledgeable, she made sure that her tour group was comfortable and well hydrated during the hot day of our tour. We learned so many interesting facts about the colosseum, Rome etc. If you are planning a trip to Rome to visit the Colosseum take the Underground, Roman Forum, & Palatine Hill skip the line tour like we did. This was definitely a once in a lifetime experience to walk along the underground of the Colosseum. You will definitely regret it if you don't.
