Andy was an amazing guide he had so much knowledge and catered the tour to what we wanted and the questions we had. He had some of the best humor I have had with a tour guide yet. He was always checking on our comfort and made sure we had water. Highly recommend.
Thank you for a spectacular tour! Our guide Paola was wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable. The cannot be anything about Ancient Rome that she does not know! The aperitivo at the conclusion of the tour was a really special experience, watching the sun set on the forum. Thank you again!
We have been on vacation for 7 days and had several tours and Dennis was our favorite tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and knew how to include just the right amount humor to keep us entertained. He was great!
If you want to tour the Colosseum it must be with Alexandra. She elevated the whole experience with her vivid stories that brought ancient Rome to life. Thank you Alexandra.
We had a great time on this tour! Our guide was Patrizia and she was amazing. Super knowledgeable and able to navigate the crowds well. I felt satisfied with our time at the Colosseum but for me the show stopper was the Forum as I had no idea so much history was there. Our last stop for aperitifs at a nearby rooftop bar was the cherry on top. We had amazing views of the Forum below. Highly recommend!
What an amazing experience! Francesca is absolutely incredible!!!
This was a great tour! So informative and very small group- and fun!
Our LivTour was phenomenal. Fabio was very informative and encouraging of questions, which made the experience very interactive. It was clear he was knowledgeable. We immediately felt in good hands. Our only feedback for future tours is selecting a less touristy bar for the aperitif at the end. Although the option to end the tour that way was greatly appreciated we would have loved it even more to end at a bar that was more local.
Very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. Exceptional experience Guide - Francesco rizzo
We had a wonderful tour with Francesca. She was a wealth of knowledge and took us off the “beaten path” at times. We appreciated her photography skills as well.
