Excellent experience w/early entry and skip the line. (Highly recommend early entry option to summer travelers to avoid heat of the day.) Guide Francesco provided excellent information, kept group together/moving and was considerate of timetable.
Great tour guide!

Very organized company. We did the early morning tour with Antonio (the one who knows himself as the Antonio who can speak Japanese lol). He was very friendly, professional, funny, and informative. He commented on the most important things as we made our way through each site and he showed a real enthusiasm and passion for sharing his knowledge. Thank you, Antonio!
We were in good hands!
