We met our private tour guide Sam right on time near the colosseum. He was very friendly and made us feel at ease from the beginning. The tour was filled with historical context and easy to understand explanations. He graciously answered all of our questions. He patiently allowed us to take pictures as he provided his presentation. There is little doubt that his presence vastly improved our experience at both venues. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who would like an exceptional tour experience…many thanks!
