We did the Forum and Coloseum tour

We did the Forum and Coloseum tour I was happy with it overall The tour guide was very knowledgeable I wouldnt have known what any of the stuff in the Forum was without the tour Her presentation tone leaned a bit secular at times specificially when discussing anything involving Christianity but overall remained largely factual and neutral I would have liked maybe a bit more free time to explore though

The Vatican a perfect blend of scholarship and humor

Our guide Maria Laura was erudite captivating funny and riveting The 3 hours of the tour passed like 10 minutes We learned about ancient Roman and Christian history culture artistic technique and pastcontemporary religious thought It was a scholarly thoughtful and at times hilarious tour The microphone delivery system meant that Laura could continue talking as we walked and she did talk continually never faltering and always engaging Terrific tour

An excellent guided tour of the Vatican

The intructions to meet up with the EcoArt guide were excellent A tour group of 10 all equipped with earphones and a small radio meant we did not miss anything Our guide Catalina was so knowledgeable and patient with all our questions She was also very funny and the tour was therefore very enjoyable We would highly recommend Eco Art and Catalina in particular
