Really beautiful Colosseum tour! Our guide was fantastic, competent, helpful, and had a way of telling stories that keeps you listening. We learned a lot and, more importantly, we had fun!
I took a wonderful tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum and it was an incredible tour. Tomorrow I will do the Vatican and the squares of Rome and I already can't wait :))))) everything is beautiful thank youuu!
Grazie davvero per queste bellissime parole! ❤️ Mi fa ancora più piacere leggerle adesso, a distanza di qualche giorno. Spero che anche il Vaticano e le piazze vi abbiano regalato dei bei momenti e che Roma vi sia rimasta nel cuore! Un abbraccio e grazie ancora per averci scelto! 😊
This walking tour was one of the best moments of our stay in Rome. We walked through the streets of the historic center discovering iconic places like the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, and its magnificent fountains. The guide's explanations, always interesting and full of anecdotes, made the tour even more enjoyable. The pace was perfect, without rushing, which allowed us to fully enjoy each stop. We enjoyed this experience so much that we booked the Vatican Museums tour for the next day 🙂
Quel plaisir de lire que vous avez passé un si bon moment ! 😊 Et le fait que vous ayez décidé de poursuivre l’aventure dès le lendemain nous fait vraiment chaud au cœur. J’espère que le Vatican vous a réservé autant de belles surprises ! Merci pour votre confiance et pour ce joli retour ❤️
Seeing the Colosseum is a thrill, but with the explanations everything changes. So many things we didn't know. The guide was very nice and the time flew by in an instant. Really well-done tour. Recommended.
Il Colosseo riesce già da solo a lasciare senza parole, ma quando inizi a conoscerne le storie diventa ancora più affascinante. Sono contenta che quelle ore siano volate e che vi siate divertiti lungo il percorso! Grazie per averci lasciato il vostro pensiero ❤️
We were at the Colosseum with our children and this tour was the best choice. They had fun from start to finish. Francesca was great at engaging them with a fun treasure hunt and lots of interesting facts, making them participate without them ever getting bored. We adults also learned a lot. It was a special morning. Highly recommended for families!
Grazie per aver condiviso questa esperienza! ❤️ Quando un tour riesce a conquistare sia i piccoli che i grandi, per noi è una soddisfazione enorme. E una mattinata così, passata insieme, è proprio il tipo di ricordo che rimarrà nel tempo. Grazie per la fiducia e per averci scelto! 😊
Honestly one of the coolest things we did in Rome. We were a bit skeptical because usually guided tours become tedious after a while... but here it was the exact opposite. Three hours flew by. Francesca is super easygoing, very knowledgeable, and above all, she knows how to tell things without making you feel like you're in a history lesson. She is one of those people who you can really tell loves what she does, and that really comes across. If you are in Rome and want to take a tour that isn't the usual tourist stuff, trust me, it's really worth it. We left with a lot of new things in our heads and the desire to book another one immediately. 10/10, we would do it all again without thinking twice 🔥
Questa recensione è bellissima!❤️ Sapere che siete partiti un po’ scettici e siete usciti con la voglia di farne subito un altro è forse il complimento migliore! Grazie davvero per esservi fidati e per aver raccontato così spontaneamente la vostra esperienza. E per il 10/10… incassiamo volentieri! 🔥😊
5 stars 💫💫💫💫💫 super deserved
Grazie mille! ❤️ Quelle cinque stelle fanno davvero un sacco piacere! E ancora di più sapere che siano arrivate così, senza pensarci due volte 😊✨
Francesca was a fantastic tour guide! We really enjoyed the visit to the Colosseum and ancient Rome; it was truly beautiful and impressive! Francesca took care of us on this hot day, finding us places to cool off along the way. We were lucky to have such a guide.
Grazie davvero! ❤️ E quando a fine giornata pensate di essere stati fortunati voi ad avere una certa guida… posso dire che la fortuna è stata anche mia! 😊
We visited the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. We had a fantastic guide, Francesca. On this trip we participated in several guided tours in Europe and she was by far the most knowledgeable and kind. She possessed in-depth knowledge of the archaeological sites, their discovery, and their restoration.
Un confronto così, soprattutto dopo aver fatto diverse visite durante lo stesso viaggio, vale davvero tantissimo. ❤️ Grazie per averci dedicato queste parole e per aver notato anche tutta la parte meno visibile del lavoro che c’è dietro a una visita: studio, ricerca e tanta curiosità. È una soddisfazione enorme! 😊
A truly comprehensive tour! Very knowledgeable guide. We visited both the Vatican and the Colosseum. This tour is ABSOLUTELY unmissable for anyone visiting Rome. We also did a walking tour of the squares of Rome, which was also fantastic and much more than I expected!
Avete praticamente fatto il pieno di Roma! 😄❤️ Mi fa davvero piacere sapere che abbiate deciso di affidarvi a noi per scoprire la città in più momenti. E quando un’esperienza supera le aspettative, è sempre una bella soddisfazione per chi ci mette passione ogni giorno. Grazie davvero per averci scelto! 😊
