We only had one day in Rome so booked this as the most express option but honestly it was perfect, I feel like 1 hour for the upper and arena levels is more than sufficient and I struggle to understand how tours for 2/3 hours fill the time, it wouldve been too long for us. Our guide was very kind, pleasant and informative. She was also very helpful to us as parents using a stroller in locating elevators and even helping to carry a bag for us. Excellent value for money and a great duration, highly recommend!

This was a last minute purchase because I was neglectful in getting tickets. My priorities were a short tour, skip the line, access to the main floor and evening hour due to temperature. Although not inexpensive, it was 100% worth it. Our guide was lovely and informative as a bonus!
