Traveler reviews
Fantastic
Such a wonderful experience. Our guide (Georgia) was very knowledgeable and in addition did a wonderful job of making sure my mother (78) was able to hear and keep up. She brought her own personality and flain to the experience.
Coliseum/Roman Forum guided tour
No complaints! Meeting point was different than described in email (directions made it sound like you were going into the subway to meet on the second floor when actually you meet outside on the street). Our guide was AWESOME! Highly recommend you ask for Georgia! She was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. Also recommended the best pizza restaurant for lunch- best meal we had while in Rome!
Excellent tour of Palatine, Colosseum and the Forum! Highly recommend
Excellent tour!! We have visited the Colosseum and the forum before, but this tour including the Palatine and especially our tour guide was excellent! Stories, history, education, myths and fact or fiction distinctions were highlights. On a very hot day we were still completely engaged and delighted. Excellent job, thank you!!!
Lots of steps but worth...
Lots of steps but worth the effort, our guide was a wealth of information and apart from being very hot it was a wonderful tour. Recommend you do an early tour to avoid the heat. JM
The guided tour is...
The guided tour is superb. Our guide always made sure that everyone felt comfortable and made sure to always put us in the shade during the explanations despite the 37/38 degrees. It was really fantastic
