5.00We booked a semi private tour and ended up having our own private tour! The instructions messaged to us the day before were very helpful for finding our guide. Our guide Sara was amazing. Can’t say enough good things about her; very knowledgeable and gave us the best views of the Colosseum and Forum. At the end she gave a wonderful lunch recommendation in the area as well. Overall it was very well organized and we recommend it to anyone.

5.00Sara was amazing!!!!! This trip and my impression to rome would be totally different without her and this tour. DO IT! The friend whom went with me had been to rome and it was a first time for me, for me, it was a wonderful experience because Sara knew all the good timing and places, spots to bring us, together with the history, stories told, she revived rome in my understanding. For my friend, she said it was like getting bonus bonus bonus from last visit because now you don’t only know a city by its look but also its soul! If you’re considering whether to book this trip or not, just do it!!!
