Loved this tour. Going in the evening was definitely better than during the day. Our guide was very knowledgeable.
Our experience was pathetic, firstly things do not turn up as per our booking. In our booking, below mentioned inclusions were there but Guide told us that entry to any monuments are not there and moreover there is no entry after 3 PM, is there is no entry after 3 PM, then why tickets were for 7 PM for these below mentionend entries. (1) Faster Colosseum entry with access to Palatine Hill and Roman Forum (€18 value) and fee (€2 value) (2) Highly rated experience offering great value Headphones included for a clearer, more relaxed tour When we asked for headphones, she said, sorry we do not have. Her voice pitch was so slow, we hardly heard anything. We requested you to refund our money as nothing was there as per ticket.
The whole experience was fantastic. Andrea was an amazing guide who did everything for us to see the best parts of the colosseum and the forum, within the possible shade on a very hot day.
We missed the start because our Vatican tour was late starting & finishing- the feature to track your guide they offer doesn’t work if the guide doesn’t turn it on…. We took a taxi to stop #3 of 6 on the 1 & 1/2 hour tour and were there 30 min in….. tour never showed up…. Office tried to call the guide & got no answer….. they would have had to of ran /jogged to have not met us…. Not sure if we were the only ones signed up & it cancelled when we said we were running behind & we’re going to use the tracker to meet them on the way or what…. Weird experience, but there it is.
The tour was great well organized , the english of the guide As perfectly unserstandable . I think the only think that shoud be improved is the size of the Flag and send a message to rhe visotor about the exact location of the meeting. A photo is not clear .
