Andrea was amazing!!!! She was at the meeting point on time, and it was easy to identify it too. She was very knowledgeable, and her way of sharing the story behind all the areas of the Pantheon was just awesome. We were one of the last two tours she was going to have for the Pantheon before starting her journey on the Colosseum, and we are excited to know that everyone who will have her over there will enjoy it to the fullest. She was amazing and made the whole tour captivating and entertaining.

We were unfortunately unable to go on our tour, as planned, due to reasons beyond the tour providers control. The tour provider called us to confirm that were were coming and that was great as we had a bad experience the day prior with another tour company who didn't show up. We greatly appreciated and recommend this tour and the tour company based on their sheer professionalism.
Response from Host, Sept 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad our team’s professionalism and communication helped provide a positive experience, even though you couldn’t attend the tour as planned. We truly appreciate your recommendation.

ATI was our guide and she was a breathe of fresh air. She calmly took us through the Pantheon from it's construction to it's use throughout the decades. We were not rushed and learned a lot about the history and various special sections. Highly recommend her and the building is so special.

Mark_M, Aug 2025
We arrive to the exact location where we were to meet our guide 15 minutes before the stated time. The Guide never showed. I tried to call the contact number on the reservation, and there was no answer. I confirmed with other guides for other tours who were in the same location that I was in the right spot. I called.Viator. They also could not get in contact with the tour guide. They offered to process a refund which I agreed to. Then I received an email that they said they were denying the refund. I sent an email back saying that was unacceptable and couldn’t not believe they would not refund my money. They sent another email back saying they are not going to refund me and gave no reason why other then they claim they did some sort of research. I could not be more upset with them, especially since I’ve spent over $1500 in tours while I’m in Italy with them.
S_J, Aug 2025
Our tour guide was very friendly & helpful. She even came to get us when we couldn't find the meeting point. She told us lots of historical data on the Pantheon and Rome and answered all our questions.

Our guide was Mortazavi Seyyed
Mehrshad. He did a good job leading us through the history of the Pantheon. We were “fortunate” to have it rain while we were there so that we could see the rain falling through the perpetual opening in the ceiling.
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for your great review! We’re glad to hear that Mortazavi Seyyed Mehrshad did a fantastic job sharing the history of the Pantheon with you. How amazing that you got to witness the rain falling through the oculus—it's such a unique experience!

After a very rainy morning, the sun came out just in time for our 12:00 tour. And it was a great tour! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. It was a small group, which we prefer, so it was easy getting around the crowds. “Skipping the line” is definitely worth the $, as the lines were extremely long!
Response from Host, Jan 2025

Sue_W, Apr 2024
Our guide was very knowledgeable but spoke on too many things unrelated to the Pantheon. We were very keen to see the Pantheon but a lot more time was spent discussing Roman history than we would have liked. To be fair, our guide was excellent and explained all the features of the Pantheon and ensured we all saw the main points of interest…just a little less time on unrelated things would have been appreciated
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're glad to hear that you found the guide knowledgeable and appreciated their explanations of the Pantheon. We understand your desire to focus more on the Pantheon itself, and we truly value your input. We'll ensure that future tours strike a better balance between the key topics and additional context to improve the experience.
We appreciate your review and hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
