Viator Traveler's Reviews
I really enjoyed this tour it was worth it, our tour guide Maria was very informative and patient with us, she answered all our questions and made the tour a very joyful event. I did the early morning tour 09.15, I personally think doing these tours in the mornings are better because you miss the crowd, each time you move on you are a step ahead of the crowd.
Our tour guide was an archeologist so this was brilliant. They really loved telling you all the information about what we saw and where we went etc.
To be standing listening to her and then told, turn around and you will see Julius Caesar's place of burial, really brings the history of Rome to life.
Rome has a lot of history and this tour was a great way to be introduced to some of the best of it.
Well worth it!
We signed up our family of 6 and my parents for this tour, and we all LOVED it! Our guide, Joseph Giuseppe was wonderful. He was not only knowledgeable and friendly, but he was very considerate of my parents who are both in their late 70's. We really saw more than expected on the tour. We also liked that we had time to take pictures at each site and do a little exploring. It wasn't just a drive-by tour.
