A Passionate Tour - What an amazing afternoon spent with Alessandro. We couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable or passionate guide to take us around these fascinating ancient places. Be prepared for stories and history in equal measure. The man’s a genius!!

Amazing tour! - Alessandro was a wonderful tour guide! He provided so much historical context and also supplemental information on his phone, it was very evident how much passion he had for the subject! He took us around to all the best spots, pointed out all the best views for photos. I really enjoyed all his input and his attitude, both my friend and I think this tour was the highlight of our trip.

Small group tour colesseum and Roman forums - Our guide was the best in Italy so far . So engaging, inclusive and professional. We have had a few guides that would just walk and talk and didn’t engage with the group but this was definitely not the case . He was so knowledgeable. Did not want the tour to end !!

Colosseum Cracker - Our guide Dimitri was superb. Great knowledge of all aspects historically which he was able to portray with humour, wit and interest. He explained things so clearly and concisely, and kept everyone feeling that he was their personal guide. A wonderful experience for us.

Colosseum & Forum - Our tour was of both the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Claudia our tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave an energetic explanation of the history. My only comment is that I wish we were able to go lower into the Colosseum and walked with her along the Forum grounds. I will say, I am physically challenged and managed to participate in all of it albeit a hilly and unstable ground. Would do it again.
