Gracias a Mikel (Lucas para los amigos) pudimos disfrutar de un tour diferente por el centro de Roma. Además de darnos algunos datos de lo más interesantes, Mikel sabe captar la atención del grupo desde el primer minuto, lo cual hizo que el tour se nos pasase volando. Una experiencia completamente recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

Thanks to Mikel (Lucas for friends) we were able to enjoy a different tour of the center of Rome. In addition to giving us some of the most interesting information, Mikel knows how to capture the attention of the group from the first minute, which made the tour fly by. A completely recommendable experience. Opinion translated. Show original.

Un tour de lo más interesante que ayuda muchísimo a entender ciertos aspectos de la vida de la Roma antigua con algunos detalles curiosos (y algunos bastante macabros) que te proporcionan otra visión de la ciudad. Silvia, nuestra guía, ha sido fantástica y divertida. Si por casualidad cogéis este tour y la tenéis de guía, yo al menos pediría darle al final del recorrido la voluntad, ya que compaginar estudios universitarios con este trabajo tiene muchísimo mérito y ella además lo hace genial.

A most interesting tour that helps a lot to understand certain aspects of life in ancient Rome with some curious details (and some quite macabre) that give you another vision of the city. Silvia, our guide, has been fantastic and fun. If by chance you take this tour and have her as a guide, I would at least ask her to give her the will at the end of the tour, since combining university studies with this job has a lot of merit and she also does it great.

Lo vi un poco desorganizado. Éramos demasiada gente en el grupo, se necesitaba pinganillo o auricular, calles muy ruidosas. La guía excelente, lo intento hacer lo más ameno posible. Los q hice en León o Paris eran más interactivos. Llamamos móvil que ponía bono para encontrar punto de encuentro y comunicaba .

I saw him a bit disorganized. We were too many people in the group, you needed an earpiece or headset, very noisy streets. The excellent guide, I try to make it as enjoyable as possible. The ones I did in León or Paris were more interactive. We called mobile that put a voucher to find a meeting point and communicated.

El tour muy chulo y la guía muy agradable. Pero cuidado con la guía de restaurantes que comparte al final del tour. En teoría eran para comer bien sin dejarte un riñón y el único al que fuimos nos pegaron un buen sablazo y los platos aunque ricos, eran escasos(incluso dicho por mis hijos pequeños). Translate this opinion into English.

The tour is very cool and the guide is very nice. But be careful with the restaurant guide that you share at the end of the tour. In theory they were to eat well without losing your kidneys and the only one we went to was hit with a saber and the dishes, although delicious, were scarce (even said by my young children).

Astrid fue una guía estupenda, espectacular,…con gran claridad en las explicaciones. Nos sedujo a todos con los misterios, curiosidades y leyendas que nos explicó. Muy atenta con todo el grupo y amable, paciente y simpática con los niños. Sin lugar a dudas volvería a repetir, siempre que fuera ella la guía. Translate this opinion into English.

Nuestra guía Astrid ha sido espectacular! Hizo del tour un momento muy divertido, fue muy clara en sus explicaciones y priorizó la comodidad, buscando sombra y lugares donde sentarse, por lo que se hizo muy llevadero. De todos los tours que realizamos sin dudas Astrid ha sido nuestra guía favorita!! Super recomendable para salir de los típicos tours! Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Astrid has been spectacular! She made the tour a very fun moment, she was very clear in her explanations and prioritized comfort, looking for shade and places to sit, so it became very bearable. Of all the tours we have done, Astrid has undoubtedly been our favorite guide!! Highly recommended to get away from the typical tours! Opinion translated. Show original.

Un acierto! La verdad que teníamos dudas porque hemos tenido alguna visita guiada un poco light o aburrida y para nada ha sido este el caso. Tanto la guía Vela como los temas de los que nos ha hablado han sido muy didácticos y amenos. Y por supuesto, todos nuestros amigos que viajen a la Ciudad eterna les recomendaremos estre Free Tour. Mil gracias Vela!!! Translate this opinion into English.

A success! The truth is that we had doubts because we have had some light or boring guided tours and this has not been the case at all. Both the Vela guide and the topics that he has told us about have been very didactic and entertaining. And of course, all our friends who travel to the Eternal City will recommend this Free Tour. Thank you Vela!!! Opinion translated. Show original.

Hicimos el tour con Silvia, una chica 50% italiana 50% española. Todo muy bien. Anécdotas e historias muy interesantes. Lo hace muy ameno y explica muchísimas cosas de ámbitos diferentes: sobre arte, sociedad, historia, política... Por poner un pero al recorrido, creo que éramos demasiados. Por otro lado, me gustaría que se especificara más el recorrido de la ruta. En nuestro caso, habíamos hecho prácticamente la misma ruta por la mañana. Muy bien y recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

We did the tour with Silvia, a 50% Italian 50% Spanish girl. All very well. Very interesting anecdotes and stories. He makes it very entertaining and explains many things from different fields: about art, society, history, politics... To put a but on the tour, I think we were too many. On the other hand, I would like the route traversal to be more specified. In our case, we had done practically the same route in the morning. Very good and recommended. Opinion translated.

Excelente free tour. Resaltamos la buena predisposición, ya que nuestro tour se canceló por lluvia y nos reubicaron dentro de las 48 hs a pesar de no haber lugar desde la web, porque nos íbamos de Roma. Miguel, nuestro guía fue excelente por su conocimiento y por lo entretenido que hizo el recorrido. Como hace más de 9 años en cada viaje a Europa Civitatis es la mejor opción para conocer los diferentes destinos. Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent free tour. We highlight the good predisposition, since our tour was canceled due to rain and they relocated us within 48 hours despite there being no place on the web, because we were leaving Rome. Miguel, our guide was excellent for his knowledge and for how entertaining he made the tour. As it has been for more than 9 years, on every trip to Europe Civitatis is the best option to get to know the different destinations. Opinion translated. Show original.

Creo que Roma debe tener historias más interesantes que las que nos han contado... Yo mejoraría el contenido... Suelo coger tours de mitos y leyendas en todas las ciudades que visito y este tour me ha parecido bastante aburrido. Espero que mejore. Saludos

I think that Rome must have more interesting stories than the ones we have been told... I would improve the content... I usually take tours of myths and legends in all the cities I visit and I found this tour quite boring. I hope it gets better. Greetings

Un tour de diez. Silvia explicaba muy bien el motivo de las legendas y las historias. Hemos aprendido que a los Romanos les gustan las supersticiones. También ha estado muy atenta en todo momento, resuelto preguntas y fenomenal que fuera con micro para escucharla. Lo recomiendo 100%. Translate this opinion into English.
