Was a great way to see and learn about Ancient Rome. The headset had some status at times and when at the coliseum it seemed to pick up other tour guides creating some background noise. Also we were running a few minutes late and were communicating with the tour guide. We made it just in time but they won’t wait more than 5 minutes.
