We chose this tour because it looked very kid friendly from the reviews. Unfortunately, for my family, it was not that engaging. This is not to take away from our guide, Julia. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. As an adult I enjoyed the tour, but my children were disappointed in the amount of time spent in the actual Coloseum, which was very little. We spent most of our tour in the Forum instead. My older son did retain some information because my was referencing things from the tour later in our trip, but I envisioned it as something a bit more engaging! The other children in our tour seemed to be slightly more into it than my own children but there was a point toward the end where I could see the kids fading! I would still rate it as a good tour because Julia is a great guide that provided a lot of great information. Just wasn't for my kids!

Our tour guide was Kasia (or Kate) and we couldn’t have asked for a better first day in Rome. She was energetic, extremely knowledgeable, engaging, amazing with kids and shared the history and explained things as we went through the Colosseum and Roman Forum in a fun way that was both captivating for our 6 year old and the adults in the group. Everything seemed perfectly timed as Kasia knew exactly which spots to go to avoid the long lines to walk right in and perfect shady spots or locations to share details. Her what seemed to be bottomless backpack was full of what seemed to be games and goodies that were so fun you forgot they were educational. Could not recommend this experience enough and hope everyone has a chance to have Kasia as their guide! Grazie mille!

This is an awesome tour - Bruno was fun and interesting and knowledgeable. Our 10 year old daughter loved it - and so did we. He made it exciting and kept us all engaged. We had rain during most of the tour and it didn’t dampen our experience! Bruno even took photos of us, had costume props, quizzed the kids on fun facts, and gave them prizes at the end. And made recommendations on where to find lunch. He was a delight and we would recommend booking his tour for sure! Very happy.

We had a wonderful experience with Rosella! She made this a super fun, interactive tour for our 4 year old and 2 year old. She even accommodated our stroller, which was huge! My kids loved this because she made history come alive for them. I’d highly recommend!

Good for kids aged 8-10, good level of information. Shame the Colosseum was so busy. Hard for the kids to see and hear the guide.

The communication beforehand was excellent, with emails, photos of the meeting point and also text messages to ensure where and when to meet. This made it so easy to find Rossella ,our guide and it was great as we had such a small group of only 11 . We got set up with headsets to ensure we could hear every word and we followed Rossella and her trusty sword in the air.
We spent about an hour learning the history and how the Colosseum was built, whilst walking inside the ground floor and moving up to the first level. Rossella was informative and had great information, she made it fun and interesting for the kids and we were not rushed. We then spent a good amount of time walking around the interior level whilst she explained every feature and played quizzes with the kids. We had lots of time for photos and any questions. We then moved to the Forum where she re inacted the story of Romulus and Remus with the children and answered every single question we had. We really learned alot and being such a small group was fantastic. We could then spend time in our own exploring if we wanted to. I would give this tour 5 stars, super guide, plenty of time, fun and small group made it a truly excellent morning. Thank you

Our guide was wonderful. He did a great job of engaging both the kids and adults. My 13 year old son loved the tour and there were several younger children in our group that enjoyed it too.

This was an awesome experience for our small family! Alessandra was an incredible guide- and both adults and kids learned SO much and had a lot of fun! No waiting in long lines, speedy entrance and Alessandra made us comfortable by choosing best routes and stopped in areas with nice shade! Our son is speech delayed and a little quirky, and she was accommodating and included him and respected his need to relax in stroller in the heat. We loved the games we played, earning points for trivia - and loved the layout of the tour, with great photo guides and explanations. We learned about ancient AND modern Italian culture - and Alessandra recommended some lovely things around the city. Def do this at the beginning of your stay in Rome! Brava and Grazie Alessandra!
