We had a lovely tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable, and answered our questions. It was very interesting to hear stories of these women. Their path was never easy, but they had a lasting impact on society. The painting made by Eleanora Fonseca Pimentel gave me chills, with knowing the backstory. Now we know of these women, we want learn more about them.
I loved it!!!! It was so enlightening and the guide was so knowledgeable!!! This was the best tour I have ever taken! Brava!!
Omg this was so cool! Our guide was so knowledgeable, it was obvious she loved the subjects she was sharing about. Each story was totally fascinating and the locations were all in a great area. I would HIGHLY recommend this

What a great tour! Ben, our guide, told us the stories of fascinating women whose experience and impact have long been hidden. Ben has done a lot of research and is passionate in bringing these women to life. We learned so much and won’t ever think of the history of Rome in the same way again!
The tour guide was great! Wonderful stories that draw you in and keep you interested the entire time.

We loved this tour ! It was very interesting ! We loved learning new things that are not always presented in the various cultural tourist sites of the city. Thank you very much.

Thank you! The women of Rome have some incredible stories that were unfortunately hidden from sight by many, but we're glad we get to show them to you now
