Sylvia fue nuestra guía y nos gustó mucho la explicación que nos dió del castillo, el recorrido fue ameno e interesante. Lo único es que en la página ponía que la duración era entre 2.5 y 3 horas, pero duró justamente 2 horas. Empezamos a las 9:30 (30 minutos después de lo programado por cuestiones ajenas a los organizadores y terminamos a las 11:35 h). Translate this opinion into English.

Sylvia was our guide and we really liked the explanation she gave us about the castle. The tour was pleasant and interesting. The only thing is that the website said it would last between 2.5 and 3 hours, but it lasted exactly 2 hours. We started at 9:30 (30 minutes later than scheduled due to reasons beyond the organizers' control) and finished at 11:35. Opinion translated. Show original.

La guida è stata cortese e preparata.. Come suggerimento si potrebbe intervallare la visita con qualche sosta anche per un veloce caffè: nella prenotazione viene descritto un tempo di 2,5 o al massimo 3 ore ma abbiamo finito dopo 2 ore. Inoltre vi era una persona non del nostro gruppo anche se la prenotazione doveva essere tutta per noi. Forse problemi organizzativi? Il costo però è stato importante.

The guide was kind and prepared. As a suggestion, the visit could be interspersed with a few stops for a quick coffee: in the reservation it is described as 2.5 or maximum 3 hours but we finished after 2 hours. In addition, there was a person not in our group even though the reservation was supposed to be all for us. Maybe organizational problems? The cost was significant though. Opinion translated.

Empezó puntual. Nuestra guía fue muy amena y nos enseñó el castillo con información y anécdotas que nos hizo pasar unas horas muy entretenidas. Se nos hizo corto la verdad. Recomiendo este tour mucho. Además se nota que disfruta haciendo su trabajo y eso se nota Translate this opinion into English.

It started on time. Our guide was very pleasant and showed us the castle with information and anecdotes that made us spend a few very entertaining hours. The truth is that it seemed short to us.

La guía Silvia fue excelente!!!!!! Mucho conocimiento y muy entretenido el recorrido. El único inconveniente fue que el horario inicial era a las 9hs, lo debieron cambiar a las 11 y terminamos ingresando a las 11.40… todo esto debido al Museo, totalmente ajeno a la agencia / guía. Una pena porque terminó afectándonos el itinerario que teníamos con otras excursiones del día. Será un tema a mejorar con la gestión del museo… Translate this opinion into English.

The guide Silvia was excellent!!!!!! Very knowledgeable and the tour was very entertaining. The only drawback was that the initial schedule was at 9am, they had to change it to 11am and we ended up entering at 11.40am… all this due to the Museum, totally unrelated to the agency/guide. A shame because it ended up affecting the itinerary we had with other excursions for the day. This will be an issue to improve with the management of the museum… Opinion translated. Show original.

Our tour with Astrid was an exceptional experience. Her vast knowledge and storytelling skills transported us to each moment in the castle's history, making us truly imagine the events and characters. Astrid not only mastered every detail but also showed a unique understanding, answering our questions and ensuring everyone fully grasped the story. An amazing guide who made this tour unforgettable.

Un tour precioso y muy bien montado. La guía nos explico con todo gran lujo de detalles todo lo relativo al mausoleo de Adriano y sus plantas superiores posteriores que fueron la residencia de varios papas. Las vistas desde arriba son superiores y se hacen una fotos magníficas. Una vez finalizado el tour nos pudimos quedar dentro para poder volverlo a recorrer a nuestro gusto. Un gran tour, muy aconsejable. Translate this opinion into English.

A beautiful and well organised tour. The guide explained to us in great detail everything about Hadrian's mausoleum and its later upper floors, which were the residence of several popes. The views from above are superior and make for magnificent photos. Once the tour was over, we were able to stay inside so we could explore it again at our leisure. A great tour, highly recommended.

Una visita muy bien llevada por parte de la guia (no recuerdo bien su nombre, Astrid creo, dijo que es venezolana e italiana por la oarte paterna) Es una excelente anfitriona, parece muy bien preparada. En todo momento nos ha mantenido informados sin necesidad de utilizar obviedades ni datos farragosos. Lo he pasado estupendo. Translate this opinion into English.

A very well conducted visit by the guide (I don't remember her name well, Astrid I think, she said she is Venezuelan and Italian on her father's side). She is an excellent hostess, she seems very well prepared. She kept us informed at all times without the need to use obvious or cumbersome information. I had a great time. Opinion translated.

Espectacular todo lo visto pero lo más importante fue la calidez, el trato y las explicaciones de Astrid a quien no conocía y sabe muchísimo porque yo realice otra excursión( no con Ud) y no pudieron explicarme casi nada del Emperador Adriano que fue ta importante y en este caso Astrid sabía todo lo que una profe de Latin que lo leyó ahora lo vio GENIAL ASTRID Translate this opinion into English.

Everything was spectacular, but the most important thing was the warmth, the treatment and the explanations from Astrid, whom I didn't know and who knows a lot because I went on another excursion (not with you) and they couldn't explain almost anything to me about the Emperor Hadrian, which was so important, and in this case Astrid knew everything that a Latin teacher who read it now saw.

Muy bien! Aunque me lo imaginaba mucho mejor conservado por dentro. La guía muy agradable, atenta y paciente, ya que tuvo que ir a buscar a una persona del grupo que no aviso y se quedó atrás. Las vistas de la terraza son espectaculares, se veía todo Roma. 100% recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

Very good! Although I imagined it to be much better preserved inside. The guide was very pleasant, attentive and patient, as she had to go and look for a person in the group who had not been notified and was left behind.

Nuestra guía Beatrice fue una maravilla. Se nota muchísimo que le encanta su trabajo, por las ganas que le pone en las explicaciones lo que ayuda a captar muchísimo nuestra atención. La historia del castillo no era para nada lo que creíamos que era, lo que también nos sorprendió gratamente. 100% recomendable; fue la actividad que, personalmente, más nos sorprendió y nos gustó. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Beatrice was wonderful. You can tell she loves her job, because of the passion she puts into her explanations, which really helps to capture our attention. The history of the castle was not at all what we thought it was, which also pleasantly surprised us. 100% recommendable; it was the activity that, personally, surprised us the most and that we liked the most.

Una fantástica sorpresa la que encierra la visita del Castillo de Sant'Angelo. De las mejores visitas guiadas que hemos hecho en Roma de lo cual es absolutamente responsable Sara nuestra guía.

El Castillo es una maravilla y totalmente recomendable. Positivo: Explicación amena e interesante. La guía correcta y amable, aunque repetitiva. No tan positivo: Demasiadas paradas, algunas muy largas, y exceso de anécdotas personales de la guía lo que hace la visita un poco cansina y algo limitada. Al llegar arriba, la guía se despidió, dándonos a entender que no había mucho más que ver. Nosotros al bajar descubrimos bastantes elementos interesantes y nos quedamos sin explicación de los mismo. Translate this opinion into English.

The Castle is a marvel and totally recommended. Positive: Pleasant and interesting explanation. The guide was correct and friendly, although repetitive. Not so positive: Too many stops, some very long, and too many personal anecdotes from the guide, which makes the visit a bit tiring and somewhat limited. When we got to the top, the guide said goodbye, giving us to understand that there was not much more to see. When we went down we discovered quite a few interesting elements and we were left without an explanation of them. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tour orientado habilmente hacia el origen y pprogreso en el tiempo, del antiguo panteón funetario del Emprerador Adriano. Ha cubierto, de manera excelente, nuestras expectativas.

A tour that was cleverly oriented towards the origin and progress in time of the ancient funerary pantheon of Emperor Hadrian. It met our expectations in an excellent way.
