Amazing! - The tour was wonderful but our driver Alessandro was seriously the best part of the whole experience! We have never been on a tour where the guide was so passionate and went out of his way to make us feel special and made it the most amazing experience all around. He was so knowledgeable and gave us information on all the sites we passed on our way to our paid tour. If only he could guide all the tours in Rome! He is one of a kind!

Very interesting visit - We booked a Catacombs tour with Touristation Aracoeli. The staff is very helpful and kind, and can communicate with you in different languages. During the ride to the Catacombs, the driver points out the different points of interest, so the ride doubles as a bus tour. The visit to the catacombs was very interesting, relaxing, and refreshing. The guide was very knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about how the catacombs were built, the reasons why it was built, and what had happened to the site through the centuries. The site was not as busy as all the other tourist attractions we went to, so it wasn't as stressful. We also appreciated the change in scenery, since it was outside the city.

Catacombs - The catacombs tour was excellent and very insightful however the highlight was the bus to the catacombs. Here we were greeted and driven by a driver named Alessandro who was absolutely amazing! He created his own mini tour of the interesting history on the way to the catacombs and it was very very interesting
