This should be your first trip when getting to Rome, we saw all the sites in the four hour E-Bike tour. Now we can determine what we really want to see. Adriana was amazing, her knowledge of all the sights was beyond comprehension. It really helps that she has a masters degree in History. The bikes made this trip effortlessly and the distance travelled was incredible.
Our tour guide was wonderful, but groups of 30 are a little large for the basilica. It was very in depth, but also had to rush a little to get all 30 people through
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Would definitely recommend doing this tour.
Mia was amazing! She was very knowledgeable about our destination. Such a great experience! I would definitely use this company again.
Alexandra made the visit memorable. Her depth of knowledge shows she really cares about the history and wants to provide that save value to her customers
Anna did a fantastic job of sharing the highlights of St. Peter's Basilica in a fun way. She engaged everyone in our group including younger kids. She remembered where we were all from and made connections our different backgrounds! Even advocated for us on our behalf when we were waiting in the hot sun for the dome climb. Loved it!
I love how our tour guide was very passionate about the history of Catholicism. He was very friendly and worked well with accommodations needed across the group.
The tour was amazing. Karen was my guide and her knowledge, time management, and personality (humor, kindness, flexibility) added to the already incredible experience. I originally selected the tour without the dome experience but Karen was able to adjust and assist us in getting the dome experience. I highly recommend this tour and I hope you have the same experience and your guide as me. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and found the admission fee reasonable. Also, this package will allow you to skip the lines which can grow extremely long and crowded. The tour was approximately 2.5 hours, so plenty to see. We also had a smaller group and experienced smaller crowds (possibly because of the off-season: winter), so that made our experience better.
We have had a fantastic experience. Despite large crowds and sometimes some impatient people, our young guide (Karen) remained friendly, funny and very enthusiastic. Besides that, she had a lot of knowledge, spoke several languages and also provided 1st aid. Highly recommended.
