Interesting
Our guide Claudio was fun and knowledgeable. Thank you for a great trip Would love to have seen the underground, but understand the reasons.
Mary with Crown Tours was...
Mary with Crown Tours was our guide and she was awesome. She was very knowledgeable and considerate of our abilities climbing steps and navigating uneven surfaces. Highly recommend!
Colosseum tour
Our guided tour to the colosseum was amazing even with the rain. My only complaint is that the meeting place listed on my app wasn’t the meeting place. We met at the same place we redeemed our voucher for tickets. We were running late so I went to redemption meeting spot and my group went to meeting point per app. Group had to turn around and come to redemption spot.
Incompetent and unscrupulous
Two days before the paid visit that had been planned for months, they informed me that it was canceled due to a technical problem!!! That I will be reimbursed... What a great deal! Out of 4 days of planned visits, already one less and not just any one. Team A to avoid
Vatican in 3 hours
Allessandro looked after us very well and was aware that was not quite mobile. So while there are steps to negotiate he directed us away to lifts while our companions trudged up the stairs and thus we didn’t hold anyone up. He impacted lots of information about the building, the Roman empire and more recent and we came away feeling we really knew far more now. Of course whether it sticks in the memory banks will be the test! We enjoyed the experience and gained far more than if we had just visited and‘winged it’
