Foro Romano
Begin your journey through ancient Rome with a visit to the Forum, where you'll be transported back in time to experience the daily life of the empire’s citizens. As you walk along the same stones that Julius Caesar and Mark Antony once did, your guide will make the ruins feel alive again with fascinating stories and anecdotes.
Palatine Hill
Head up Palatine Hill and into the SUPER Sites, a collection of exquisitely preserved ancient villas, temples, churches, and more. This area is rarely accessible to visitors, but with special access tickets secured in advance, you'll walk right in. The specific sites you'll visit will vary depending on what's open the day of your tour. A few possibilities are the House of Augustus, the onetime home of Caesar Augustus with vibrant frescoes that rival those of Pompeii; the church of Santa Maria Antiqua, a rare example of early Christian art and architecture; or the Domus Tiberiana, Ancient Rome's first imperial palace dating to the first century AD. No matter which of the SUPER Sites you visit, you're guaranteed an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience away from the crowds.

5.00I can’t recommend this tour enough! My partner and I did the tour in mid-July. Olga was our tour guide and she was an absolute font of knowledge. She was very engaging, happy to answer any and every question and knew so much interesting information about the forum and the colosseum. The VIP tickets are worth the extra money, we got to see inside August’s palace which was super interesting. If you can get on a tour with Olga you will not be disappointed, her knowledge extends to the entirety of the city of Rome and she made it by far the best tour I have been on!
Not what you expect!

2.00Although informative, we stayed in place most of the time. We were not able to explore the many artifacts and rooms other than from afar, instead showed pictures from a book. We were also under the assumption(what we thought we paid for)that we would be going to the ground level and seeing the Gladiator Gate at the Colosseum and all we did was go to the second level and again find a shaded area to sit and listen.
Grand Experience!

2.00While we enjoyed having access to the arena floor and super sites, we felt that the tour was not at all informative. We spent a lot of money on this tour (a family trip) hoping to learn about ancient Rome, and were overall quite disappointed.
moves fast, itineraries vary. Ask questions before you book.

3.00The tour is as described--but the order apparently can change depending on time of day and/or other considerations, and this does matter for your overall experience. I might ask more questions of Walks before booking as to which itinerary order will be used. In our case, we started with the Colosseum, then went to the Forum, then to the sites on the Palatine Hill. Of the 3 hours, the bulk (approx 1.5 hours) was spent at the Colosseum, with multiple queues for security, ticket showing, etc. This was handled well by our guide, Nicolai(?). Even so, our time inside the colosseum felt rushed and the audio cut in and out so folks kept getting separated and it was challenging to keep the group together. We did visit the arena floor and had a few moments to take photos, as well as a stop at another point, but despite the amount of time and stops, we did not come away with a good appreciation of this location. I think for us, the reverse itinerary that others have reported would have been better--where we'd be left in the colosseum at the conclusion of our tour to continue to explore at our own pace. But once you leave the colosseum, you cannot re-enter. Then we proceeded to the Forum which we blew through very quickly on our way to the Palatine Hill sites; we were able to return to the Forum later and dig in a little deeper. Lastly, we made it to the Palatine Hill sites which I had not visited before. Even though we spent about an hour here viewing some different locations, I didn't feel like I got a good sense of the overall layout of the Palatine. In retrospect this probably just wasn't the right tour for us. If you want to be able to move at your own pace, best to just buy colosseum entry tickets on your own, but that wasn't possible in our case (they sold out immediately). I'm not sure that the "floor access" really added anything in particular, it's only a small portion of the floor that has been reconstructed and the view isn't really that different from other places. I'm interested in how the building is constructed and the irony is you can get better views of that at the amphitheatre at Pompeii and walk as slowly as you like. PROS: guide did include interesting facts about sites--just somehow less than we expected, perhaps this was driven as much by questions from the group as anything else.
Confusing, disappointed

1.00This didn’t work for us. We got caught in traffic and couldn’t make it to the meeting point in time. I wish the website or at least the post-purchase info was more explicit about there being no on-site office—just a meet up point. Not the companies’ faults but more info might have helped us plan. That said, unless you really want to tour tje Colloseum with a horde of others, get yourself a Forum Pass, an illustrated map, and go in by Trajan’s Column—no line at all.
Great 3.5 hour small group tour with a PhD in Archeology

5.00Had a great 3.5 hour tour with Eddy, a PhD in Archeology. It was a brutally hot day and Eddy took pains to make sure we stayed in shade and had plenty of water breaks. He explained the history and cleared up some myths about the areas we toured in an entertaining way. I have had 4 or 5 previous tours (most private) and I would go on a small group tour with Walks of Italy again.
Lied about visiting arena floor

1.00I was extremely disappointed with our tour to the colosseum and supposedly the arena floor. It clearly says on the website that the colosseum arena floor is included and visited on the tour. However we did not go to the arena floor. The guide said it is included in the ticket but not on the tour even though the website clearly says under sited visited: colosseum including arena floor! That’s the entire reason we booked with them. By the time she told us we could try and go ourselves it was closed. This is false advertising and a complete lie on their part. So many of us on the tour were disappointed. I do not recommend!
