Our guide was very friendly and informative. It was a very hot day however we as an adult family of five had a wonderful experience. There is a lot of walking however we did it at a nice pace. And jumping the cues was so convenient. Thank you for a great day.

Davide was a great guide with so much knowledge and humor, as well. He was able to take us to some other places not originally scheduled which was nice. Yes…it is a lot of walking, but it is broken up and there is time to rest. It was a hot day in Rome and he was always checking to see if we were drinking or needed to stop for more water.
