Guidekin's take

An outside only walk: a licensed guide tells the story of Caesar, Augustus and Trajan around the Colosseum and the Forum without entering either, which keeps it at €15 per person and makes it a good primer before the ticketed visit.

Only the guide is included, so do not book it expecting to go inside.

In our comparison: #90 of 132 in Colosseum, Forum & Palatine Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
