Nachtführung durch das Kolosseum und das antike Rom

The forum part of the tour was informational but only included views from the main road, other tours were down in the forum itself which we expected from the description of what was included. The Colosseum part of the tour was as expected.

I am very disappointed, I thought we were going to be able to see the Colosseum first. We couldn't even see hardly anything by the time we got there. Not what I expected.

I highly recommend this tour, especially in the summer when the days are so hot! This was our second time doing this tour. I really enjoyed the appetizers and wine beforehand and loved our very enthusiastic and energetic tour guide, Fi! Being able to go into the Colosseum after dark, when it is closed to the public, is pretty magical!!

This was a fantastic night tour. Before going to the Colosseum we had prosecco, pizza and nibbles. Then the most fantastic tour guide, Fi surprisingly from Liverpool, took us on the most wonderful walk with a brief history of ancient Rome. Her knowledge,enthusiasm and passion was a highlight. Then we were handed over to the Colosseum tour guide who took us through parts you can't normally get to on a normal ticket. A fascinating night, very enjoyable and glad we booked it.

Unfortunately, this tour was not all we had hoped for. We had several problems with the technical equipment and our guide just didn't seem interested in resolving the problem. The first time, I waited until the guide took a break from speaking and I told her that my sound device stopped working and I couldn't hear her. She said the battery must be dead and handed me a new one and walked away. She didn't wait to see if it worked....and it didn't. So I waited for another pause, found her, and told her the new device didn't work. She did the same thing....handed me another device, didn't stick around to see if it worked, and never checked back in with me. I had to wait again for another pause and tell her I still did not have a working device.The third time this happened, she literally handed me all the extra devices she had and walked away. Then our friends had a similar problem, which none of us even bothered to address. She wasn't rude or dismissive...she just didn't seem to care whether or not our equipment was working, and certainly didn't try to find any kind of work around such as suggest we stay close to her on the tour so we could hear her. It was a disappointment but luckily not out first visit to the Colosseum so we didn't feel that we missed all that much. I hope in the future the tour company will check equipment before each tour and better train tour guides to handle issues when they arise.

This tour was very good, but the directions to the office where we were to meet were terrible!! The written instructions told us to take a little alley called Via del Colleseo, walk a few meters ahead and once you reach a little square with a restaurant. Opposite the restaurant is our office and meeting point. But, which way were we to go in the little alley? What was the name of the restaurant? Was it to the right or left on that street? What was the name of the tour office? Our group of 4 met up with another group of 4 similarly confused tour participants and, together, we asked 6 different local people working in the area if they could interpret where we were to meet staff in stores, hotels, police officers, and none of them could figure it out. Finally, we stumbled upon the little office in just enough time to take the tour. After that shaky start, the tour was well organized and interesting. I would recommend this to someone wanting to do a nighttime tour of the Colosseum and area, with the proviso to ask for more specific instructions than those printed on the tour receipt!
