Amazing experience and our guide Mary was fantastic!
Max out guide was very informative and humorous and overall gave us a very good experience on the tour.
Great. Shout out to Dmitri our tour guide
Went like clockwork, and had the chance to view everything we wanted. Started off with the Roman Forum, then Palatine Hill, before ending at the Colosseum, which you can spend the rest of the day in after the tour ends, to explore on your own
The tour guide was great. Was a wealth of knowledge and gave great explanation and historical context during the tour
Great experience our tour guide Luena was a pro.Her explanation includes some humorous anecdotes.
