Traveler reviews
Great experience with lovely guide
We had so great experience. When I booked catacombs underground I got mixed up with Colleseum underground and only later realised Its different underground, but after visiting catacombs I was so happy that we had a chance to see all underground. It is really impressive, it is good bit colder, so would recommend to take a scarf or cardigan. Ceiling in the catacombs were pretty high, didn't feel trapped, so many tunnel ls around would recommend it definitely. After our tour continued to Colleseum in there we had our audio guide and it was perfect, we could see all we wanted and last was Roman Forum its right beside Colleseum got to see it all it was really hot so we didn't spend much time there but was impressed. All that time we where supervised by lovely guide Kristina. We had a transfer to every spot and Kristina have told us so much about a Rome and her voice was perfect frequency, you know the way it could be too sleepy but no, was really great to listen her.
My best guide.
We booked our tour through Viator and were lucky to have Kristina as our guide. She was absolutely fantastic! Kristina was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, explaining everything clearly and in great detail in both English and Russian. She made the tour enjoyable and special for everyone. We are very happy with the experience and highly recommend both Viator and Kristina.
Beautiful with meaning
We learned so much about our precious Christian heritage.
Misleading and very poor experience
Misleading title. Title describes this as a guided tour but is not is an audio guilde. The audio guilde did not work and so complicated to use. It was a total waste of money so disappointed buyer beware about this tout not recemendexd
Helpful guide
Christina was very kind and helpful. She made sure we was comfortable and gave us a warm hand off to the tour guide in the catacombs. She waited for us to return and took us to the next stop.
