Amazing Tour Guide

Our tour of the Colosseum Roman Forum and Palatine Hill was the absolute highlight of our trip to Rome It was especially memorable because of our tour guide Catalina She was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate and really brought the extraordinary history of Rome to life for our family It was a wonderful experience We have traveled to many different places and have had many talented tour guides but Catalina gave us our best tour yet

An English tour with very strong Italian accent tour guide

It was a wonderful experience to see the Vatican museum and the arts Our guide was knowledgeable so far as we could hear and understand his English but unfortunately his very strong Italian accent combined with terrible audio system very cheap headsets made it impossible to hear or understand much We missed more than 60 percent of the tour guides explanations and we werent the only ones with that problem

Intriguing Colosseum tour

Catalinas semi private tour of the Colosseum Roman Forum and Palatine hill was not only interesting but very enjoyable She bought the relevant snippets of history alive so we understand the nuances and intricacies of the history culture and how these sites were used over the centuries by the Popes rulers and residents of Rome She encouraged questions and we had some very intriguing discussions which created a very engaged group This is one of the best tours we have been on so highly recommend
