Excellent Tour Guide

Maria Laura was an excellent tour guide Seriously Her knowledge and passion fuels through her eyes and every sentence that comes out of her mouth truly felt as if she holds your hand personally to show you what is important and some extra fancy details that we could have perhaps missed It was my first time in the Vatican Museum let alone Rome and wished Laura was my guide for all the other things I did in Italy I asked her about Dante Alighieri and of course she was able to answer with some fascinating answers Thank you Laura and I would def do this tour again

Our guide Mariapaola at the Colosseum and Palatine Hill was outstanding She explained everything clearly in English and often enriched it with Italian and Latin terms She also showed helpful reconstructions and maps which made the ancient ruins come alive and gave us a much more complete understanding Professional engaging and very knowledgeablehighly recommended

I did a tour Of the Borghese gallery in Rome and It was extraordinary

I did a tour Of the Borghese gallery in Rome and It was extraordinary Our guide was incredibly cultured and sophisticated And had a degree in heart history In fact I think this was the highlight of my Italy trip This was a rather expensive tour for a family of four but I would say that it is worthwhile and the tour Helped enrich my whole Italian vacation because it gave me some of the foundations in historical foundations sculpture and painting Guia or guide was amazing and guided us through the crowds and pointed out the main highlights and their relevance in art history along the way She was a highly sophisticated art historian and answered my many many questions I would do this again for sure Even having done it once and especially with Guia our guide So much to see and soak in Give yourself a little extra time after the tour to do another walkthrough
