Colosseum & Roman Forum + Audio Guide

Wow! What a piece of interesting history! My husband and I went to Italy a few weeks ago to take a tour of some great history. We were in Rome for 3 days, so we decided to see the sights. One of these was the Colosseum of Rome. We went to the Colosseum as a private group with only four others in the group. This was the amphitheater, which housed fights between Roman Gladiators. Most of these gladiators were slaves, prisoners or criminals. It is interesting that in those times, fighting was a major source of enjoyment for people. I would have thought that there would be other sources of enjoyment such as eating, drinking,and parties. I am surprised that this structure has withstood time and the elements, as it is 1941 years old as of 2013. The materials they used must have been very well made. The people involved in building this structure knew how to build some great monuments! Overall, both my husband and I loved this tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and courteous throughout the tour and the price was within our budgets. The history of the Colosseum is interesting and it is definitely worth checking out at least once in your lifetime. I know that if I have time and money in the future, I would definitely go again.

We just got back from our beautiful trip our kids gave us for our 25th wedding anniversary. The entire gift came with these two private tours. Little did we know our dearest lifelong friends were in on it and came along too! They had gone five years before and it was their idea to take the private tours. We had always talked about going to Rome "one day". Walking past those long lines is just one reason to take the private tour. Bonus? We had our own photographer! and Bruno never complained when we asked for a photo op ;) What an amazing journey. The tours we took with Bruno were such a blast. I can say it was anything but boring. What a crack up he is! We went to the Colosseum one say then the Vatican city a few days later. We wanted time to just run around on our own to break it up. My husband is a history teacher and I have always loved the idea of going there. My husband said he considered himself an expert on Roman history until he met Bruno! I am a chef and food writer. I can't wait to take one his fabulous food tours.

A friend of mine suggested taking small group or individual tours while we were on our trip to Italy. So when I was investigating what to do in Rome I found Tours of the Colosseum with Ceasar. What a joy! I am so glad we did this. The guide was wonderful--very informative and accomodating to our wishes. We could take what ever amount of time we wanted to as we were touring the Colosseum. I could not believe how much he knew about Roman history, and he was willing to tell us what ever we were interested in hearing about. He seemed to know the answer to every question we asked, which was greatly appreciated. Our guide also turned out to be a great photographer when we asked. That was such a nice bonus. He also gave us ideas of other things to see and where to eat. The price was definitely within our budget for this trip. Everything was well organized and professionally done. I would definitely suggest these tours to others.
