There wasn't a lot of... - There wasn't a lot of history or detail to the stories. I also thing a group of 20 is too large for this kind of tour.

Not scary at all. - There were only two stories told, which did not really go into depth. The tour was not scary, and resembled more a regular tour in the dark. Going more into depth with the tales could make the tour more engaging, and pointing out specific artifacts or even stones could make it more fun.

Step Up Customer Service - Late arrival in Rome did not allow for tour. While ai understand that refunds are not permitted, I asked to attend this tour at a later time or perhaps a discount for another tour altogether. Zero consideration or help given.
