The forget portion of the tour seeing the coliseum was amazing and our guide Gina was phenomenal! She was very engaging and friendly and had great information to share when us. Our group has booked the combo tour to see Vatican same day, but I never received a meeting time for the second half. The coliseum tour ended and she didn’t have the meeting time info for i Vatican either and suggested we contact the office. Tried calling and texting the number but nobody would respond. Finally someone responded on WhatsApp but when I asked them for the meeting time they also didn’t know and couldn’t connect with the tour operator for Vatican. We spent the entire break between the two tours trying to get the information, until we finally just went there and waited. We didn’t get to eat lunch because of the runaround thing to figure out where to be and when. We did finally find our group there and went through the tour. Our guide seemed rushed and at the point we went into the Sistine Chapel it was all incredibly rushed and there was no real introduction. I think they were closing St.Peters Basilica so we either had to skip spending time looking at the Sistine Chapel and go with the guide to exit into rhe Basilica, or miss the basilica and take the other generic exit. We opted to do the latter so we could enjoy the chapel, but it was disappointing because our guide just quickly took all of our head sets and left through the basilica without even ending the tour properly. We missed getting to exit into the basilica which was also disappointing. Overall it was fine but we wished we would have had better communication from the company and not been so rushed to not enjoy the ending and properly exiting and enjoying the full experience with our tour.
Beste Tour der letzten Jahre

Voller Erfolg!!! Perfekt!!! Problemlos!!!
Von der Begrüßung in der Argentur bis zum Ende fantastisch. Leider ist ein Teil der Tour durch den Tod des Papstes ausgefallen. Die Summe wurde ohne Aufforderung sofort zurückerstattet. Unser Guide Renata war ein Traum. Diese Frau lebt ihren Beruf!!! Hut ab. 2 Jugendliche im etwas schwierigen Alter und einen tot-müden Vater über 3 Stunden mit ihrem Wissen, ihren Geschichten und ihrer fröhlichen, kompetenten Art gefesselt!!! Städtetrips gehören zu unseren Hobbies aber diese Tour war mit Abstand die Beste die wir bis jetzt erlebt haben. Danke Viator, Danke Renata, mit Sicherheit wieder :-)
