Loved this tour! - Alessandra was wonderful! We are so glad we had a smaller group experience because we could listen to her with or without our headphones at times. She was very likable, knowledgeable and her English was very clear. So glad we did this tour!

A must do tour in Rome - Highly recommend this tour to get an overview of the key Roman sites in Rome. Very knowledgeable tour guide. Tour was well planned and covered all of the highlights. Group was small enough to get personal attention and ask questions.

Fantastic tour by Alessandra! - Our guide, Alessandra, this morning was fantastic in every way. She was knowledgeable, engaging, kept a perfect pace for our group of 8, and thoroughly explained aspects of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum that I didn’t learn in school. I learned so much, and wasn’t ready for the tour to end, even in the heat!

Great tour of Colosseum and Roman Forum - Nicoletta was a great guide, sharing her passion of the Colosseum and Roman forum with us. She was full of amazing and interesting insights into the time period and was able to convey how life was lived during this era! Nicoletta also did a fantastic job handling an unfortunate and unforeseen medical situation during our tour.

Not a Great Experience - Guide was late arriving. Was not efficient with the tour time. Spent too much of the group time attempting to connect with the few children in the group.
