Nice experience! - I loved Grayline, we only needed to be called a day before our reservations, as the tickets say. Our tours and guides very good.

Great tour with Fabio! - Fabio was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and was able to push through the crowd to get us the best views. The Sistine chapel was breathtaking.

Nobody miss it - We had a wonderful experience, full Surprises having visited the destination for the first time, the level of management of the guide's group was excellent as he was a person full of culture and with a very good disposition, we hope to return and repeat the experience. Plus the skip line is well worth it.

Walking Tour - This walking tour covered all the areas listed in the itinerary. Our guides were knowledgeable, efficient, and punctual. Tips for summer tour - READ AND FOLLOW THEIR TIPS! *Arrive on time. *Wear comfortable, appropriate clothing for entry to religious sites, wear comfortable shoes & sunscreen, and bring water! The only reason I gave this tour a four instead of a five is that I had to remind the guide that we were on the full-day tour, which included a transfer. Without my reminders at the beginning and end of the first half of the tour, we would not have been transferred to the second portion.

Educational and a very focused tour. - Our Tour guide Roberta was very knowledgeable, energetic and engaging with a wonderful sense of humour which kept us all engaged. The highlight of the day for me was when Roberta highlighted the portrait of Christ’s gaze never leaving the viewer, it was very compelling art.

Rome Tour of Vatican, lunch, colosseum - The tour guides were outstanding. The lunch we ate outstanding. Very organized. Downfall the gentleman that picked us up I found out was a smoker. He smoked in his taxi mini van. I ended up with an asthma attack and a sinus infection. We were also told since we did not get a ride back the last guide would help us find the taxi station. He gave us verbal directions couldn’t find it and we had to flag a taxi down who charge us twice as much as it should have been after an 8 to 9 hour day and 7 miles of walking. We were exhausted but good exhausted.

Not the tour we were hoping for - Walking too fast, talking too fast, only one ear bud couldnt hear couldnt understand tour guide with accent. Too many people, too little time for pictures, eating or shopping. Rush rush to everything, gave us 15 minutes to lunch

Trip from HELL....ROME, ITALY. Vatican & Colosseum tour. - This was the WORST tour we have ever been on. REF:BR-113569223, This was a Colosseum-Vatican tour. First the driver who was pick us up was 35 minutes late we then went another hotel to pick up people, the driver waited 35 min and no one showed up. We got to the colosseum and the tour guide was nice, but did not work for trip advisor. Since we where running late, she said she had to finish by 1100hrs. We where rushed through our tour, then she told us that we would have to wait across the street for 2 hours (97 degrees ) to have someone pick us up for the Vatican tour, we just could NOT do this .. We called a cab and went back to our hotel. I called Viator and told them what we did. Sorry, would not come and get us or refund and money. I will NEVER plan a trip with Trip Advisor again, I also recommend to everyone not to use them.
