Magnífica. Pocas personas he conocido con tanta pasión por su trabajo y con tantas ganas de enseñar como él. Se me ha hecho corta la visita, hubiera estado todo el día! Un hombre con mucha vitalidad y derrochando simpatía. Bravo Vincenzo y arriba Cantabria! Sei fabuloso! Grazie di tutto. Translate this opinion into English.

Magnificent. I have met few people with as much passion for their work and as much desire to teach as he does. My visit was short, I would have been there all day! A man with a lot of vitality and exuding sympathy. Bravo Vincenzo and up to Cantabria! Be fabulous! Thank you all. Opinion translated. Show original.

Mucha gente en el grupo y las explicaciones muy rapidas, casi no daba tiempo de disfrutar todo lo que explicaba. Recomiendo que los grupos sean mas reducidos y el tiempo de la actividad mayor para poder llegar a todos los sitios a visitar, ya que con guia solo vimos pinceladas de todo lo que ver. Luego por nuestra cuenta y tirando de google pudimos ver y disfrutar de todo lo que faltaba por ver

There were a lot of people in the group and the explanations were very fast, there was almost no time to enjoy everything he explained. I recommend that the groups be smaller and the time of the activity longer to be able to reach all the places to visit, since with a guide we only saw glimpses of everything to see. Then on our own and using Google we were able to see and enjoy everything that was left to see

Nuestros guías se esfuerzan en dar los contenidos de forma completa y amena, independientemente del número de visitantes. Desafortunadamente no podemos controlar la gestión del aforo de los museos, ya que depende de la propia organización del mismo. Sentimos que la experiencia no haya resultado como esperabas. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guides strive to provide the content in a complete and enjoyable way, regardless of the number of visitors. Unfortunately we cannot control the management of museum capacity, since it depends on the museum's own organization. We are sorry that the experience did not turn out as you expected.

La guía sabía mucho y las explicaciones fueron interesantes. Aprendimos y disfrutamos a pesar del día lluvioso que nos tocó, no todos los días se está en una maravilla del mundo! Aunque la visita fue un poco estresante.. Un grupo de 25 personas en un sitio tan masificado y con zonas estrechas..., los que van los últimos tienen que estar más pendientes de no perder la banderita de la guía que de disfrutar del lugar y del momento. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was very knowledgeable and the explanations were interesting. We learned and enjoyed despite the rainy day that we had, it is not every day that you are in a wonder of the world! Although the visit was a little stressful... A group of 25 people in such a crowded place with narrow areas..., those who go last have to be more careful not to lose the guide's flag than to enjoy the place and of the moment.

Buena organización, puntualidad y facilidad de encontrar el punto de encuentro. Me asignaron a Vicente de guía, estuve con él en otra actividad y en esta ocasión tampoco me defraudó, habla español perfectamente y nos intentó transmitir todo lo que significaba el Coliseo, el palatino y el foro romano. Además, también nos explicó como en Roma deben convivir con el pasado Muy buena experiencia Translate this opinion into English.

Good organization, punctuality and ease of finding the meeting point. I was assigned to Vicente as a guide, I was with him on another activity and on this occasion he did not disappoint me either, he speaks Spanish perfectly and tried to convey to us everything that the Colosseum, the Palatine and the Roman Forum meant. In addition, he also explained to us how in Rome they must live with the past. Very good experience. Opinion translated. Show original.

Juan Miguel Ortiz fue nuestro guía, excelente resumen de la información, datos curiosos y ritmo de la actividad. Muy agradable en el trato y con algún "chascarrillo" gracioso que amenizaba el tour.

Fue una experiencia extraordinaria! Nuestra guía Rafaella, nos brindó muuucha información sobre el Coliseo y el Monte Palatino que hizo que la visita fuera un verdadero recorrido por el pasado. Ella muy presdispuetas a responder todas las pregunatas con un excelente criterio, super concretos, sobre los hechos históricos. Volveríamos a elegirla! Translate this opinion into English.

It was an extraordinary experience! Our guide, Rafaella, gave us a lot of information about the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill that made the visit a true journey through the past. She was very willing to answer all the questions with excellent criteria, super specific, about historical facts. We would choose it again! Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour ha estado muy bien. La visita al Coliseo muy instructiva. El Foro no era lo que me esperaba y el Palatino bien pero quizá con "demasiada" información. El sistema de audio no era el de otras excursiones y se escuchaba regular. Una cosa que no nos gustó es que al finalizar te dejan en un lugar (Palatino) por si queremos seguir allí pero la salida no está para nada bien indicada.

The tour has been very good. The visit to the Colosseum was very instructive. The Forum was not what I expected and the Palatine was good but perhaps with "too much" information. The audio system was not that of other excursions and sounded average. One thing we didn't like is that at the end they leave you in a place (Palatino) in case we want to continue there but the exit is not well indicated at all.

Ha sido una experiencia genial. Visitar el Coliseo y la ciudad romana sin conocer su historia no es ni la mitad de interesante que hacerlo por libre. En nuestro caso el guía nos ha hecho sentir como en la época romana, dándonos detalles, datos muy interesantes y respondiendo a todas nuestras preguntas. Recomendable 100% Translate this opinion into English.

It has been a great experience. Visiting the Colosseum and the Roman city without knowing its history is not half as interesting as doing it on your own. In our case, the guide made us feel like we were in Roman times, giving us details, very interesting information and answering all our questions. 100% recommended Opinion translated. Show original.

Para ser un tour pago, no fué nada del otro mundo, la guia Adriana se le olvidaban los datos, las frases, fué muy repetitiva y sin entusiasmo, no estuvo atenta del grupo, ni nos conocimos previamente. Sin embargo, hubo datos interesantes y pudimos entender algo de historia

For a paid tour, it was nothing out of this world, the guide Adriana forgot the information, the phrases, she was very repetitive and without enthusiasm, she was not attentive to the group, nor did we meet beforehand. However, there were interesting facts and we were able to understand some history

LA GUÍA EXPLICÓ TODOS SUS CONOCIMIENTOS, EN OCASIONES EXCESIVOS PUES LO QUE SE BUSCA ES UNA VISIÓN MÁS GENERAL. LA EXCURSIÓN BIEN ORGANIZADA PERO ES PREFERIBLE A VECES COMENTARIOS Y ANÉCDOTAS MÁS AMENAS PARA RETENER MEJOR TODA LA INFORMACIÓN. CUANDO SON MUCHOS LOS DATOS ACABA UNO OLVIDÁNDOLOS. Translate this opinion into English.

THE GUIDE EXPLAINED ALL HIS KNOWLEDGE, ONCE EXCESSIVE BECAUSE WHAT WAS SEEKED IS A MORE GENERAL VISION. THE TOUR IS WELL ORGANIZED BUT IT IS SOMETIMES PREFERABLE TO MORE ENJOYING COMMENTS AND ANECDOTES TO BETTER RETAIN ALL THE INFORMATION. WHEN THE DATA IS A LOT, ONE ENDS UP FORGETTING IT.

La organización en general deja mucho que desear. Demasiadas personas para un solo guía, pensé que sería más personalizado pues es un tour mucho más costoso que si uno compra las entradas y el audio guía. El guía Alejandro fue una total decepción, haciendo comentarios inadecuados para los.que llevamos niños.pequeños (Los cuales pagaron tour, no van gratis). Recomiendo comprar sus entradas por su cuenta y no contratar en civitatis a mi experiencia.

The organization in general leaves a lot to be desired. Too many people for a single guide, I thought it would be more personalized since it is a much more expensive tour than if you buy the tickets and the audio guide. The guide Alejandro was a total disappointment, making inappropriate comments for those of us who took small children (who paid for the tour, do not go for free). I recommend buying your tickets on your own and not hiring at civitatis based on my experience.
