Great day out with someone else driving. Beautiful country,, good guides and all in a manageable time. We added the helicopter flight (bought there) and the whole experience was fantastic :)

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums Walking Tour including Sistine Chapel, Raphael's Rooms and St Peter's

Rome, Italy

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome. The early start was well worth it and our guide made it not just interesting but also fun. We wouldn't have got near as much from a simple audio guide. This was one of the highlights of our trip.

Rome Segway Tour

Rome, Italy

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

We booked our tour on a Sunday and therefore the mad traffic of Rome wasn't an issue for the first section but with the training and simplicity of use the Segways are fine for anyone to use. A good cover of the sights around Rome and this tour covers more ground than you could on foot. And no being stuck in a bus. The only problem was we had so much fun on the Segways we had to concentrate on not missing the the tour information.

Skip the Line: Ancient Rome and Colosseum Half-Day Walking Tour

Rome, Italy

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

Wow. What an experience. Great tour through the area of the Palantine Hill and Roman Forum then into the Colosseum. Another tour where to knowledgable giude beats a simple audio guide. Along with the Vatican Tour this covers so much of Rome and its history. We are telling everyone we can.

Skip the Line: Venice in One Day

My Review

Worth every cent. We found the meeting place and joined our tour and then were blown away by sights and information. We should have read closer to realise the Boat Tour was later in the day than the Walking Tour but otherwise a fantastic and worthwhile tour.

Eiffel Tower, Paris Moulin Rouge Show and Seine River Cruise

Paris, France

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

Great experience and fantastic sights. We would opt for dinner on the Seine cruise instead of in the Eiffel Tower if we did it again as dinner in the Tower limited our time exploring there. But we would recommend this tour whichever way you organise it. A late night by the time the Moulin Rouge show finished but worth breaking the curfew.

Well worth having tickets before you get there as the lines can be time consuming. We will be organising more of these Skip the Line tickets in other cities. Madame Tussauds was a great experience.

London Pass

My Review

Worthwhile purchase but we could have made better use of the London Pass with better planning. The travel passes are great and the Underground is simple to use. Entrance to the attractions, especially the Tower, was included and all very straight forward.
