    My husband and I enjoyed our tour for the most part. We were able to tour areas we wouldn’t have been able to if we weren’t in a paid tour. We didn’t like how the guide would talk to the group out in the sun while it was way too hot. One person even passed out at the end. Also, we didn’t like the note book the guide continued to go through, that had pictures which we were expected to look at. In the end it was boring and too hot for all the talking in the sun.

    Deliver to ourselves an audio headset that tells us the history of the Coliseum in a platonic way. I feel like I paid a benefit for nothing
