This was an excellent tour. It was a bit confusing as to where we were to meet. Aside from that it was wonderful. Our guide took the time to explain everything with interesting tidbits along the way. We first toured the Roman Forum, then went to the Colosseum. We had to go through security lines, but they were quite fast due to going mid morning AND signing up for the fast track tour. Our guide was from England, I believe and has lived in Roma for many years.
