Prise en charge a l'heure et à l'endroit prévu par notre guide parlant très bien le français. Les quelques minutes d'attente aux passages de sécurité sont mises à profit pour des explications et commentaires et passent donc très vites. Toute la visite est parfaitement organisée, les guides sont professionnel(les) et s'adaptent à tout le groupe y compris les enfants. A faire absolument.

Un desorden al encontrar el grupo, poca organización, suspendieron algunos horarios sin explicación previa a mucha gente que estaba con nosotros. Poca seriedad en cuanto a la organización. Además las personas que organizaban no hablaban español para un tour supuestamente en español. Respecto al tour como tal, buena guía, buenas explicaciones en relación a la historia del coliseo. Pero el mal momento en principio opaco gran parte del día.
