Tour was excellent, although perhaps a little long. I would recommend not walking thru museum towards end.

The guided tour was excellent, I wold only improve the quality of the audio device, since at times it was difficult to listen to the guide.

Perfect to skip the (2,5 hours) line :-) - funny and good guide though we had to listen very carefully when she was talking english

Husband and children loved this tour. No crowds and atmospheric. Entry system at gate and booking office was chaotic but worked.

It was hard to find the guide and we queued before realising the meeting point was accross the road. A map would have helped. The tour guide (Alfredo) was great and really knowledgable about the building. However, as we had teenage boys with us, we had hoped to learn more about what it would have been like for a gladiator and how the collosseum was used as well as how it was built and the architectural history. Overall though it was great and I'm glad we didn't have to queue. I would recommend this tour.
[Tickitaly responds: Meeting points of tours are not always the same. For this reason we always recommend to follow the instructions as indicated on the vouchers carefully. This tour was our exclusive 3 hours one so you did not needed to queue!]

Group could have been a bit smaller. Guide was wonderful!
[Tickitaly responds: groups are maximum 24/25 people, following Colosseum special areas admittance procedures]

The audio equipment was not very good to hear the tour guide. The Colosseum need better....audio.....tour guide was very good.....

Tour was really good. The guide was nice and knew well the history. Only thing to wish more is to see the dungeons that were under the arena, the ones that are not any more covered.
[Tickitaly responds: Unfortunately the area you refer to is not open to public but the remaining areas of the dungeons are ]

Loved visiting the Colosseum especially the upper and lower levels. Wish we could have seen more of the lower levels.

Recommend the night tour over day tour, less people and confusion. I recommend Rome at night, less traffic, people, its peacful.

Really good tour (3 hours). Worth the extra to go to the upper and lower levels as you do not appreciate the size and scale otherwise. Tour guide was excellent.

It was really cool being in there n especially the third tier but the lower levels was a little bit disappointing as we believed we would be able to walk to the centre but that is not the case. Just one section of the wall around the centre but still thoroughly enjoyed the tour

Colosseum 70 minutes tours aren't released until a couple of weeks out but it's a good idea to make your reservations before that. With limited time in Rome, I noted in the remarks section that we had a narrow window for our tour. Tickitaly was able to provide tickets within that timeframe.
[Tickitaly responds: this happens only in certain periods of the year as reservations for dungeons are opened by authorities every 2 months]

It was amazing to see the lower levels after 2000 years, built without mortar and surviving earthquakes. The guide of our 70 miunutes tour was good, but was basically following the script.

Our Colosseum visit was really good, and our guide was very knowledgeable. The meeting point was very convenient and easy to find. The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful.

The night tour was THE best way to see the Colosseum. I would have given the tour 5 stars if only the guided tour included headphones to better hear the guide.
