Slow Start but Great Tour - Communication prior to the tour was excellent and clear. The meeting point was easy to find, but the greeter did not show up. Fortunately we found others in our small group so we knew we were in the right spot. Our tour guide was a little late and had to handle the logistics (something she didn’t normally have to do). Once the tour started, we found the guide engaging, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour despite the hiccup at the start.

Castel Sant Angelo tour - This was a great tour. Alec was both knowledgeable and humorous. He made the tour interesting and even kept my daughter focused on what he was saying.

Disorganized - Disorganized tour by Loving Rome. The times kept changing and we just rolled with it. The location of the meetup wasn’t clear at all. I called the agency and they gave me a different meet up spot than the guide was at. The guide didn’t have a flag so it was hard to find him. Our tour was delayed because someone had to deliver the listening pieces so a few members of the tour had to leave midway so they don’t miss dinner reservations.
