The Colosseum is the largest amphitheater ever built, also called the Flavian Ampitheater. Built under the Flavian Dynasty, construction started in 72 AD and was completed in 80 AD. Built of concrete and sand, the Colosseum could hold up to 80,000 people. Spectators would come to watch gladiator contests and other spectacles for the public, such as simulated sea wars with props, public executions and mythological dramas. It wasn’t until the medieval era that the building was converted and used as a housing facility, a Christian shrine and a fortress.

Excellent Service
Our driver was early, courteous, helpful with luggage, offered lemon candies, and some historical information along the way as we asked. Excellent service. The company even linked us to a company for a private tour of Pompeii! That was extra special! It was my first experience with a private driver - boy was is a treat!

Waste of $1633 and a terrible experience
Grab a snack this is going to be a long one. My husband and I paid $1633 for a private tour from Sorrento to Rome. We were promised in English speaking tour guide which was not the case the guy did not know more than two words in English, which were only I don’t know. They don’t answer any of our questions. It felt like we were in a very expensive taxi cab. When we got to Rome, all he did was drop us off without showing where we were supposed to go didn’t get out of the car to give us a tour. He said call me when you’re ready to get picked up. Used the phone translator to communicate with us. On the way back, his car has trouble and we were completely stopped on the highway during heavy traffic jam. He pulled to the right side, called his boss rather than calling help. After sitting in the car with no air conditioning windows down in the middle of the highway tow truck came after 45 minutes. Any normal operating business would know not to tow the car with passengers in there instead of transporting us to a different car they tow the car to a body shop with my husband, and I in the car imagine our fear of actually being dropped. Needless to say we were terrified and got home two and a half hours later than our anticipated time. When I tried messaging the owner of the company, he said we were provided with the services they promised, and I should be thankful. I don’t know what I’m supposed to be thankful for being on a tow truck on my 20 year anniversary. Horrible ownership horrible operation and over all horrible experience
Response from the operator: I’m glad you left a review so I can tell to all our clients how much disrespectful you were with the driver, being in delay on each place in Rome, at the Vatican for example you agreed a pick up time in 30 minutes and you showed up in 3 hours and now you are complaining about a delay of 40 minutes on the drop off time? Yes, exactly, just 40 minutes and not 2h30, you are a liar and we know why, you booked through a broker, not directly with us, paying 40% more than our regular rate and were trying to have a discount as you can have also a phone number with +1 as international code, you can also write Seattle on your TripAdvisor account but both of us know from which country you come and “discount” is the only one word you know…! The car had a problem, on the highway where the only way to manage it second Italian rules is the way they did, so avoid to seem ignorant and read something on Google, in 40 minutes you had a new car, impossible to do better than that, if you are used to travel (I don’t think so) you know that it could happen, it is normal, it isn’t normal to mange it so quick, that means that we did a great job, this is why you had to say thank you, but as I said, you know just the word “discount”. This is a hard job, the driver worked for 14 hours to provide your tour (we are professional drivers, professional tour guide is another job and it is an option that if you want must be paid…but…you know just the word discount…) we have hundreds and hundreds reviews with 5 stars and an average rate of 5.0, your review will not change it, your money will not change my life, the only one think that must change is you way to deal with the people, otherwise you’ll have a sad life! Best regards I hope to don’t see you again.

Raffaele was our driver and he was amazing! He was kind, social and knowledgeable. We made the trip to Rome and back so enjoyable! He was always on time and well organized. The office was great with communicating with us and making sure we had all the details we needed before, during and after our trip. Overall an amazing experience! Highly recommend them!

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $1514 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento take?
+
Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sorrento can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour of Rome from Sorrento start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sorrento within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Private Amalfi Coast Day Tour from Sorrento or Naples, Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sorrento?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sorrento?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
