CROWN TOURS

Welcome back!

Here’s Where You Left Off

At crown tours we believe a well curated tour or activity is the best part of any vacation… Meet the team that bring these unforgettable experiences to life!

I pay for two Netflix subscriptions because I can’t remember the login info for one of them. I like French fries in milkshakes (you're welcome) and travel is at the top of my priorities at all times.

I think you can usually tell a lot about a person from their app subscriptions as well. Well, mine are Audible, Headspace, The Financial Times, Chess.com, Lumosity, Netflix and Sleep Cycle.

Team Leader

Some people call me Sofilù or Peanut but my real name is Sofia. I was born and raised in Rome, but I’m also half American.

Although I’m not very tall, I always strive to reach high objectives in life and cereal boxes.. because, for some reason, my favorite ones are always on the very top!

Accounting and Finance

I love new tech. I love learning about it, thinking about it, experiencing it. Even if I’m never going to use it.

IT Expert and Web Developer

Most of the people knows me as Alex, and probably that’s why almost everyone looks surprised when meeting me (funny thing from having a male name in Italy). One thing I’ll never get bored of… finding beautiful hidden gems in the eternal city and enjoying a Spritz at sunset.

My husband and I did the Priority Access Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Tour on our first full day in Rome, and it was MAGICAL! Our guide Marianna was absolutely incredible; she shared fun facts and amazing history throughout our walk, and there was always something new (well, historical!) to see and learn about. She was super sweet and ready to answer any questions, and we had a blast. Definitely book your visit here, and if you're lucky enough to have Marianna as your guide, you are guaranteed an excellent experience.

Sandra was an amazing guide! She was extremely knowledgeable on the colosseum and let us in on many niche fun facts. They were professional, prompt, and funny. Book with crown tours if you want a great tour for a great price. Thank you Sandra!

Booked through the app GetYourGuide, this tour was a group of about 25 for the Colosseum, Forum, and Palatine Hill. Met at the office just outside Colosseum. Radios given to hear tour guide. Guide spoke English. But radios used as separation can occur due to heavy traffic. Radio use is a little muffled. So, we stayed up front with the guide. Tour is very informative and our guide, Evis was outstanding. She answered questions and was very nice and patient with guests. Colosseum is amazing when you consider the age, history, and legends. Overall a great experience!

We did the 3 hour tour of the Roman forum and the colosseum. Eva was our guide. She was phenomenal in how she managed the group, the crowd, and provided an full blown experience. We not only left having learned about what we saw, but able to actually picture life in ancient Roman times. While it would be easy to let the ruins do the speaking, Eva made it so much better!

Huge fraud. Do not be dumb like us and run very far away from this compagny. We paid tickets to go to visit Borghèse gallery. 33€ personne person. Because of GPS WE walked 2 hours and never found it. Of course. No refund. The guy told us that eh would give us 20% discount if we come back. We really wanted to. We bought 2 other tickets. On the way to go, we realise that real price is 16€ per person. For the difference we thought maybe it was a guided tour, but with a lack of Informations on their website. Not. They juste make you pay the double because they buy the tickets instead of you, and because they Say they make you skip the line. When you are inside, the BEST! One line. YOU CAN NOT SKIP IT! Even the guy from the museum who scans the tickets laughs of us and tell us this is bullshit and a FRAUD! THEY ARE THIEFS. My bad. Just my money that I put in the toilets. I have been told since I am 6 years old that italien are specialists to steal money from the tourits. For the CrownTours company, this is not a legend......

I would recommend staying away from this company. Our tour of the Forum and Colosseum was HORRIBLE. Our guide's knowledge and grasp of what we were seeing was abysmal. We paid extra for the arena floor and were told at the last minute it was cancelled - without reason. Our tour started late. Our guide barely spoke English and lost us on several occasions in the crowds. It was downright bad. When I complained, they admitted the tour guide was ill-prepared. It was not worth our money. Crown Tours said they would make it right and refund us. It's been 3 months and they keep dragging me along as if they are going to refund me. I am tired of waiting. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM.

My son and I took a Vatican small group tour. Our guide never stopped talking and she made ridiculous statements. For instance, she said Michelangelo never painted before he got the commission to do the Sistine Chapel, she then added this proves there was divine intervention in his painting. Come on. He studied painting too. He considered painting equivalent to house painting, not art, and preferred sculpting, but to tell people he never painted was unforgivable for a guide.

We went on a Colosseum tour with crown and we're lucky enough to get tour guide Lumi. She was AMAZING. So knowledgeable (former history teacher), I mean a book of knowledge! She was witty, funny, entertaining and down right the best. Request her.

Terrible experience with Crown tours. We were not able to get our visit because the people from Crown Tours did not pick us up at the place indicated by our operator "Get Your Guide". They mixed information, and were very rude when we finally met. They tried to put all responsability on our shoulders, saying we have been late which was a lie. No alternative proposed, no reimbursment, for a visit for 4 people. This event just devastated our family stay in Rome.

We did the wine siping & painting tour with crown tours yesterday and it was an amazing experience. High quality wine and food and a very friendly painting class in their beautiful studio.
