5.00We had an amazing tour guide Leo. He was very passionate and explained us the history of Rome (over 3 thousand years). Worth every penny! Would love to come back and have Leo give us a tour when the weather is warmer. Thank you Leo!

5.00Our tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum was excellent. Despite heavy rain and a few challenging personalities in the group, our guide, Aphrodite, remained engaging, informative and professional throughout. She shared clear, insightful explanations that helped us truly understand the history and significance of each site. Her knowledge and positive attitude made the experience enjoyable even under less-than-ideal conditions. Highly recommended.
Would do it again!
