Best tour ever

Jim_S, Mar 2024

The tour, and our guide Paul in particular, was amazing. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Roman and ancient history and on oh we exactly what to share about each site. I highly, highly recommend Paul and this tour to anyone who’s interested in the sights and history.

We did not meet up with our tour. We messaged and called, but did not get a response. Ended up just going on our own. Would not recommend.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Hello, We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by the unexpected accident that occurred to your guide just before your scheduled tour. Unfortunately, we were only informed about it the following day. For this reason, we had already issued a full refund for your tour. Unfortunately, the opportunity to reschedule the tour at no cost on another day, which we had previously offered, is no longer possible since you will not be in Rome. Please accept our sincerest apology again. Thank you

A Must Do in Rome

William_R, Mar 2024

Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and considerate. He spoke with authority, knowledge, and an obvious love for the subject. He had supplementary pictures, was open and eager for questions, and taught us a semester of college worth of knowledge on a leisurely 2 hour walk. He took pictures of us, even suggesting good spots for pictures. Overall incredible experience.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback! We are so glad you enjoyed this experience with your guide. We hope to see you again on one of our other tours in Rome :) Thank you!

We enjoyed our evening...

We enjoyed our evening walking tour....there was lots of great information shared! We do wish we had the opportunity to go into the colosseum but that didn't work for us. Our tour guide was very informative and loved sharing his knowledge!! Would def recommend!
