    An amazing experience that was well organised and would have been impossible without our knowledgeable guide!

    Das war die schlechteste Führung, die wir wir je gehabt haben. Unsere Guide konnte kaum Deutsch sprechen und inhaltlich war sie sehr enttäuschend. Sie wiederholte 10 mal immer die gleichen Sätze und so allgemeine Aussagen wie : „Hier sind 3 Säule. Sehr alte Säule. Schöne Säule“. Wir überlegen uns nach eine Rückerstattung zu verlangen. Nie wieder bei diesem Veranstalter.

    Rosalia our guide on October 22nd at the top!!! I highly recommend. She taught us a lot about the visit with her but also about others like the pantheon (which we made without guide but thanks to Rosalia we were ungluable) for the Roman forum and coliseum Rosalia explains really well and gets to interest the children by making it participate we loved!!!! Thank you Rosalia for this wonderful visit!!!!
