Beautiful tour with Eugene - We were lucky enough to take our tour with Eugene. His explanations were fascinating and rich. Eugene was able to pass on his passion for history and was very pleasant with the whole group. Thank you for this wonderful day!

Colosseum and Ancient Ruins tour. - Rich was a wonderful guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about history, yet he shared his knowledge without us feeling like we were at a lecture. Because Rich is an American, he spoke very clear English which helped me understand every word. There is a lot of walking, but it was at a slow pace. There are a couple of staircases in the Colosseum , but an elevator was installed for those needing it. I highly recommend this tour.

I just could not... - I just could not understand the guide. The guide was late. It was too crowded and many times I lost connection. Very nice guide but too hard to understand.
