Child-friendly, individual, competent

Tobias_W, Jul 2019

We had a great afternoon with Renata. She speaks german very fluent and understandable, took time to answer all the questions of our two boys (11,13) and was able to inspire us adults at our level very much with her competence. Although it was a very hot day, she was able to keep our attention friendly, involved and with empathy. Thank you, Renata!

Response from Host, Jul 2019

Thank you for appreciating Renata's empathy and knowledge. Very happy to know your children had a great time during the Kids friendly colosseum tour with optional Arena Entrance!
