A great tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill, with a very knowledgeable guide, Arnjo. It was interesting and our guide made it all easy to understand. Time flew by, and I would thoroughly recommend this tour - it was terrific. What I would say is, this tour isn’t suitable for people who have walking difficulties. The Colosseum itself has an elevator to help people, but the remainder of the tour has a lot of tricky terrain to walk over and hilly in parts. Please also remember photo identification for access to the Colosseum.

This was one of the highlights of our stay in Rome. My sister and I are ‘more mature’ and our tour guide was fantastic with us making sure we were managing stairs and waiting for us when we were a bit slow. City Walkers were brilliant can’t recommend them enough. Thank you

When I booked the tour, I put the wrong date of birth for one kid which he is not able to get in. It is hard to leave him alone. The lady who was responsible for checking in kept communiting with the ticket office. After the tour started, she resolved the issue and we can join. She ran with us to meet the tour guide. It is great to see they are so customer foused. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and explained well. We forgot her name. I highly recommend this tour if you are in Rome.

Knowledgeable and passionate guide who made the tour very interesting and enjoyable. Highly recommended for singles, couples and families with older children

The entire tour was just fabulous. It definitely was Angela who made it so. She was extremely accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. Her stories were fantastic. Such a wonderful tour guide, you are lucky to have her. Thank you Angela.

Great tour with a guide who was very knowledgeable about all aspects of Roman history and the sites that we were taken too.

Andrada was an excellent tour guide. Her historical knowledge was fantastic and her commentary was extremely interesting.

The accent made it difficult to understand the guide. If the tour covered history, I missed it. Either purchase a private tour or buy tickets with the audio guide. 2 thumbs down on the group tour.

Fantastic tour. Fi was amazing . She was very knowledgeable and made the whole tour entertaining . Learnt lots of new information and the girls really enjoyed it . Would highly recommend it.

Great tour! Tour guide knew all the history. Asked us questions to test our knowledge. Learned alot I didn’t know about Rome

Review of “The Walker Tours” My wife and I had a deeply disappointing experience with The Walker Tours. We booked tickets to St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, paying an outrageous €78 per person (€156 total) for tickets and an audio guide. However, this turned out to be an absolute scam. Lack of Clear Instructions The confirmation email asked us to arrive early but failed to provide a specific location. This is a critical omission given the enormous crowds of pilgrims and tourists around the Basilica. We spent over 30 minutes in line, entered the Basilica, and—shockingly—discovered that no one checks tickets because the entrance is free! Misleading Practices After realizing this, I tried to use the so-called “audioguide” service included in the ticket price. The email stated that the tickets and audioguides would be provided at the meeting point, but no staff from Walker Tours was present, and no one at the Basilica recognized the company or their tickets. I even went to the official audioguide distribution point at the Basilica, but the staff there were unable to assist me because they had no knowledge of Walker Tours. Unresponsive Customer Service I called their office multiple times for help, but no one picked up. When I later contacted them via email to request a refund, their response was dismissive and unhelpful. They claimed that I should have gone to the meeting point (which they failed to specify in any meaningful way). They also hid behind their “no refunds” policy, which customers are forced to accept when purchasing tickets. Insulting Justifications To add insult to injury, they claimed that “perhaps some days the monuments have free entry.” As a tour company selling tickets, shouldn’t they know this beforehand? This is outright deception. Conclusion I feel completely scammed. The Walker Tours charged €156 for something that is entirely free and failed to deliver the promised service. Their lack of transparency, accountability, and customer support is appalling. I will never use their services again and strongly urge others to avoid this company. Their practices are misleading and exploitative. Rating: 1/5 (only because 0 isn’t an option)

Rome is always a fantastic city to visit and this time we did the guided tour of the Colosseum and the Palladium. It was amazing, but it was our guide Briken who made it extra special. You could tell he is fascinated by history and was able to provide in depth answers to all our questions - I'm a bit of a history buff myself. He was also very entertaining. Thank you Briken and City Walkers Tours for such a great experience. Top marks. I would recommend this tour to anybody looking for a great day out.

Our guide David was excellent. He kept things light and humorous, gave us interesting information, but did not go so deep as to become overwhelming. I recommend this tour if you’d like a fairly quick but insightful look into the history of the Colosseum and Roman in general.

Incredible tour!!! I loved loved our tour guide. She was so knowledgeable, funny, passionate about history, and even gave us her grandmothers lasagna recipe at the end of the tour as a keepsake! 🥰 it was the best to get the historical context but also have time for pictures and some fun facts! Would highly recommend!

The tour was good and ok. Guide spoke good english and she knew the history or the place. Views were amazing! Loved seeing all the dark tunnels. Gorgous sunshine all day beating down on us. There was things that i didn't know. If i am do this tour again i think i would ask them if the guide would tell us their own stories of what happened there. 8/10 thank you loved my visit to the Colossero.
