Sara was an excellent guide! The company seemed pretty organized (more so than the other companies we used) and the pick up location was excellent. Thank you!

Our guide was amazing and had such a wealth of historical knowledge that we learned so much. He was such a wonderful story teller that we could’ve sat on the ground and listened all day. Fantastic tour and a most excellent guide.

Very knowledgeable guide, had a colossal experience. Would recommend to other people looking for a great tour while in Rome.
Overall pleased with tour

It’s a good tour in that they let you go through arena area and skip the line, but it is not worth the cost if the tour. It lasts barely over an hour. To note-it does let you into Roman forum and palatine just not guided
Best guide ever.

Our tour guide (Fredrica?) was very knowledgeable and so informative. We loved her enthusiasm and extra details she provided. She really cared about the history and her culture which translated into a fantastic experience. She is most definitely a valuable team member and our favorite guide over a 3 week vacation.
