What Touriks offers
The name in the sheet, “Touriks Rome Info & Support Point”, is the Google Maps and Tripadvisor listing for the customer desk of Touriks, a tour operator founded in 2017 that describes its products as short, striking guided experiences of ancient monuments, underground spaces, churches and art. The desk handles meeting information, day-of support and rebooking for people who have booked a Touriks tour. It is not a public tourist office, and it is not affiliated with Roma Capitale’s infopoints.
The tour catalogue at our last check covers the Colosseum with arena floor, St Peter’s Basilica and dome, the Pantheon, the Catacombs of Domitilla and Ostia Antica with round-trip transfers, and private museum tours. The company sells on its own site and as a listed supplier on GetYourGuide. English is the confirmed language; five others are marked as coming soon.
For what the Colosseum ticket includes and how arena-floor entry works, see the Colosseum guide; for the basilica, the St Peter’s guide.
Tours and prices
Site prices at our last check:
- St Peter’s Basilica tour — from €25, the entry-level product.
- Catacombs of Domitilla with transfer — from €55; see the catacombs guide.
- Colosseum with arena floor — from €99 in a group; private from €349.
- Ostia Antica with transfer — price on the listing.
- Private museum tours — €229 to €439 and up per group.
At €99 the Colosseum arena-floor group tour sits above the marketplace group benchmark of €49 for the standard route; the premium buys the arena entrance, which costs €24 rather than €18 at the ticket office. Compare the GetYourGuide arena-floor category before booking.
What travellers report
Touriks’ website displays two aggregate scores, 4.9 from about 7,100 reviews and 4.8 from about 3,900, without naming the platforms on the page we read; it has a Tripadvisor listing under the Info & Support Point name and a GetYourGuide supplier page whose live score could not be retrieved for this review. The general pattern for short, low-priced Rome tours of this type is positive comments on guides and value, and complaints about meeting-point confusion, which is exactly what the support desk is meant to fix. Check the live rating on the platform you use.
Booking and cancellation
Book on touriks.com or through GetYourGuide, where the platform’s cancellation policy, typically free up to 24 hours before, applies. The official site’s cancellation terms were not visible on the page we read. If a meeting point is unclear or you miss a departure, the support point is the place to go, but confirm its address and hours on your confirmation first, since listings disagree.
Carry ID for Colosseum and Vatican entries and dress for St Peter’s.

Verdict
Touriks is a credible, low-priced tour operator whose “Info & Support Point” is a customer desk, not a public service. Its short St Peter’s and catacomb tours are good value, and its GetYourGuide presence gives you a cancellation policy. Book through the marketplace, confirm the desk’s address before relying on it, and treat the Touriks Rome Info & Support Point as what it is: support for Touriks customers, with the city’s own infopoints the place for general questions.
