Fantastic place - I had a brilliant time for my birthday, and it was so nice to see everyone happy and having fun on the dance floor. The staff are very professional and friendly. My self and my daughter had a facial which was very relaxing. The swimming pool is nice and warm and easy to get into which is important if you have mobility problems. I am looking forward to my next visit.

Sara Magister, tour guide through the Vatican Museums - We spent four hours in the Vatican Museums with Sara Magister as our guide. She is recommended by Rick Steves as an exceptionable personal guide while in Rome and for good reason. The museums can be an overwhelming first-time experience, but Sara is distinctly able to help you focus on the major artistic works and be thoroughly enriched by the experience.

Highly Recommend - This was a great tour of the museum. I have a husband and two young boys who are really not interested and bored when coming to a museum. I booked this specifically because it focuses on kids. I think that Martina did an excellent job keeping the kids attention. She had an iPad that helped the kids visualize what things would have looked like. She was sitting with them and working with them to make sure they understood. She had these fun cards so they could translate ancient Latin. They really learned too. They asked questions and they even talked about it afterwards. I think she did the best anyone could do with my difficult to entertain children. I would recommend this to other families.

Excellent - Donato was an outstanding guide. His charm and expertise kept out son fully engaged with the historical surroundings. Our son said this tour deserves infinity stars - not just five.

Best tour and tour guide in Rome! - This was the best tour we've ever taken! Our tour guide, Maria, was exceptional. She was extremely knowledgeable, kept the kids engaged, and was very patient and kind. Our kids (7, 5 and 3) said this was their favorite activity in Rome! She incorporated games and scavenger hunts throughout the tour and our kids LOVED it. My husband and I also loved the tour and learned a lot from Maria. I highly recommend this tour!!!

Best Tour!!! - Maria was the best tour guide we have ever had. She kept our four kids (11, 9, 7,6) engaged the entire time. Only one of our kids has read all the Percy Jackson books, but the tour was still excellent for all. Our kids loved the competition and the chance to learn from Marià. She was an great teacher. We would highly recommend this tour! One of our best memories from Rome!

Percy Jackson tour of Capitoline Museum - This is a fantastic way to experience the museum. Simone brought the stories to life while surrounded by all the statues. My children were enthralled, engaged and loved the quiz and games making it so interactive for them. Highly recommend

Informative, fun, personalised - Maria, our guide was very knowledgeable, fun, excellent with the kids, adapted the language and story to their level. But as adults we were also involved and could take very much from the presentation. Highly recommend! As the kids said, without the stories it is just stones.

BEST tour ever... for children AND adults! - Even if your child hasn't read the Percy Jackson series... this tour can't be beat! Donato was the best guide anyone could ask for. He was fun, engaging and kept us all enthralled! We are so glad we found this tour and splurged. Our son loved it and it was a highlight of our time in Rome especially for him, but also for us, as adults!
