Caroline S. — United Kingdom We used Rome Tours with Kids to visit the Colosseum as well as a day tour to Pompeii. Both tour guides were excellent and had a great pulse on when the kids were interested and when they needed extra engagement to keep them going. It was HOT and we could not have gotten through these sights successfully without our guides! For the Pompeii tour we also used their private transfer service. The driver was also so kind and top notch. We all learned a lot and had fun. Definitely recommend!

Joshua M. — Australia Excellent tour! Our guide Francesco was absolutely superb. He engaged the kids (8 and 11 years) and made the whole thing easy and fun. No waiting in queues. The company was very accommodating of last minute changes and had excellent communication. Note that it is much cheaper to book directly rather than through a third party website!

Kathleen J. — United States Tour was outstanding. Booked specifically for my kids to enjoy, and they were thoroughly enraged the whole time (ages 12, 9 and 4). Great combo of learning and fun and everything in between. It’s hard doing tours with young kids because they can lose attention quickly and get distracted or lose interest. Quote the opposite here. Best of all, I enjoyed as much as the kids because I learned so much myself! It’s a private tour, we skipped the lines at the Vatican and it was money well spent
