Brandon knows his sh*# he's worth requesting.

Bandon from Canada was a spectacular guide. He brought the history and ruins alive and in a context we could understand. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject was evident. I would definitely request him as a guide again.
Exceeded my expectations by far

Thomas was our tour guide, and it was just my husband, my son and me. My son majored in history in college, with an emphasis in Ancient Rome, and he thoroughly enjoyed this tour, but my husband and I did, as well! Thomas is like a professor, without the stuffiness. He is a storyteller, and that's what made it so interesting. Plus, you will see the remains of Augustus' home, which is not to be believed. If you take this tour, you will thoroughly enjoy it!

We have been multiple times to the Roman Forum and Colosseum and would highly recommend these sites to newbies to Rome. However, we wanted something different that we haven't seen in our many trips to Rome and the Through Eternity Private Tour of the House of Augustus hits the mark as well as the bonus site of the 5th century Roman catholic church of Santa Maria Antiqua. Brandon, our Through Eternity guide, was a wealth of knowledge and information on anything Roman, including some spicy tidbits that would rival those of the famous Roman historian Suetonius! He definitely enhanced our visit to these lesser-known sites. We were awed by the beautiful ancient frescoes in both the House of Augustus and Santa Maria Antiqua. Moreover, being in the Roman Forum and on the Palatine Hill is always a wonder - walking where the ancient Romans once walked! And views from the Palatino were outstanding! We highly recommend Through Eternity, this tour, and all of their tours!
A Memorable Class in Roman History and Art History...

We can't say enough positive comments about our guide, Brandon. His knowledge of Roman History gave us insight into their daily life, political and religious practices. As a bonus he explained aspects of Roman Art History that were eye openers. Our time with Brandon on this tour gave our trip substance.
