It was great, our tour guide knew so much! He was so kind and even took us to a chocolate shop he loved!
We had a fabulous private tour with the wonderful Virginia uncovering what makes the Pantheon such an amazing piece of architecture. We then discovered the incredible pictorial techniques of St Ignatius Church that create amazing trickery for your eyes. Thank you Virginia for sharing your knowledge with us and making our day both fun and special.
Our guide from Rosy Smart City Tours was exceptional in her knowledge. Great style of delivery. She made the Pantheon and church come alive for us. Wish she was our guide for all our other tours. Thank you!!!
The pantheon is so full of interesting facts, that if you dont have the right guide, you will miss all those extra items. Thank goodness we had Michael to give us this tour. He is so fun and full of information. Perfect group size limited to 5. Absolute yes on this one.
Virginia was an incredible tour guide. She really made the experience come to life, lots of great tidbits!
This was a great tour! I would not have had the experience without the knowledge of our guide. He made each place even more interesting with the stories and details we would have otherwise overlooked and the final surprise with the additional church (I don’t remember the name) and its frescoes was a plus!
This tour was wonderful! The site is breath-taking and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. I did not feel rushed at any time. We were a small group of 4 people, which made it all the better. I would definitely recommend taking this tour as it will contribute to a memorable travel experience in Rome.
Hello, I would really recommend this tour. Our guide was very friendly and good company with fantastic knowledge. I took the 9,30am tour and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience
Two wonderful buildings, located very close to one another. Our guide Virginia was delightful, providing many insights into what we were looking at, including points of historical interest for the other buildings in the immediate vicinity, that we definitely could have not visited on our own. Thank you!!
