Fue genial, Valentina, la guía es muy simpática y piensa mucho en las necesidades de los visitantes, se preocupa por ellos. Hizo la visita muy amena, y eso que había demasiada gente, pero ella nos dejó descansar de vez en cuando, nos llevó al baño (lástima que las instalaciones sanitarias sean tan malas y escasas), y nos mostró todo contándonos bellas historias. Nos gustó mucho. Recomendado al cien por cien. Translate this opinion into English.

It was great, Valentina, the guide is very nice and thinks a lot about the needs of the visitors, she cares about them. She made the visit very enjoyable, even though there were too many people, but she let us rest from time to time, took us to the bathroom (it's a shame that the sanitary facilities are so bad and scarce), and showed us everything telling us beautiful stories. We liked it a lot. One hundred percent recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Ivan fue muy amable, enérgico e instructivo. Además su simpatía hizo la recomendación experiencia muy agradable. Sin embargo, lo más reseñable es lo mucho que es capaz de contagiar su pasión por la historia de la ciudad. La visita fue mejor por haberle conocido Translate this opinion into English.

Ivan was very friendly, energetic and instructive. Furthermore, his friendliness made the recommendation a very pleasant experience. However, the most notable thing is how much he is able to spread his passion for the history of the city. The visit was better for having met him Opinion translated. Show original.

Andrea, el guia , nos dio una grandisima explicacion de la historia. Fue un excelente guia. Aun asi tengo una queja en referencia a la visita. No cumplieron con lo contratado, ya que teniamos tambien el Palatino y ahi solo lo hicimos por libre el que quiso , pero sin guia.

Andrea, the guide, gave us a great explanation of the history. He was an excellent guide. Even so, I have a complaint regarding the visit. They did not comply with what was contracted, since we also had the Palatino and only those who wanted to did it on their own, but without a guide.

El tour incluye la visita al Palatino todo el año, pero no se recorre en su totalidad. Sentimos si el tour no estuvo del todo a la altura de lo esperado. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour includes a visit to the Palatine all year round, but it is not covered in its entirety. We are sorry if the tour was not quite up to expectations. Opinion translated. Show original.

La visita es muy completa. Primero visitamos el Coliseo, después el Palatino y por último el Foro Romano. En nuestro caso, no dio casi tiempo a terminar la explicación del Foro Romano. A tener en cuenta que hay que caminar bastante rápido, así como subir y bajar las escaleras del Coliseo que son bastante altas, las cuestas del palatino y el suelo pedregoso del Foro. Translate this opinion into English.

The visit is very complete. First we visited the Colosseum, then the Palatine and finally the Roman Forum. In our case, there was almost no time to finish the explanation of the Roman Forum. Keep in mind that you have to walk quite quickly, as well as go up and down the stairs of the Colosseum which are quite high, the slopes of the Palatine and the stony floor of the Forum.

Ha sido una experiencia inolvidable, el mejor tour de todos los que hemos realizado en nuestra visita a Roma.

Muchísimas gracias por todo Translate this opinion into English.

Nuestro guía Ivan es un genio! Siente una pasión por la historia que la transmite durante toda la visita. No sólo nos compartió información sino también datos de color. Estuvo atento a que todo el grupo (éramos 31) pueda ver y sacar/se fotos de todos los puntos que visitamos. Estamos muy contentas de que nos haya tocado Iván como guía. Recomendado 100% Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Ivan is a genius! He feels a passion for history that is transmitted throughout the visit. He not only shared information with us but also color data.

La actividad estuvo genial, solo que estuvimos poco tiempo en el Coliseo, la guía sabia mucho, pero iba bastante rápido, y una vez que terminas la visita guiada ahí y pasas al Foro y Palatino, ya no puedes volver al Coliseo. Como recomendación, iría con audioguia o visita guiada pero solo al Coliseo, para poder estar mas tiempo allí y poder disfrutarlo mas. Como así también iría a la arena y subsuelo del Coliseo. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was great, except that we spent a short time in the Colosseum, the guide knew a lot, but it went quite fast, and once you finish the guided tour there and go to the Forum and Palatine, you can't go back to the Colosseum. As a recommendation, I would go with an audio guide or guided tour but only to the Colosseum, to be able to spend more time there and enjoy it more. As well as it would also go to the arena and basement of the Colosseum. Opinion translated. Show original.

El Tour nos ha encantado, ha dado una visión profunda de lugares que en muchas ocasiones habrían pasado desapercibidos de no haber escuchado la explicación de qué son o qué representan, obviamente también explicando los puntos de interés esenciales. Luca ha estado increíble como guía; lo ha hecho dinámico, interesante y súper enriquecedor, contando la historia con pinceladas de anécdotas y cultura. Sin duda recomendadísimo, más aún con él como guía. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved the Tour, it has given a deep insight into places that on many occasions would have gone unnoticed if we had not heard the explanation of what they are or what they represent, obviously also explaining the essential points of interest. Luca has been incredible as a guide; He has made it dynamic, interesting and super enriching, telling the story with touches of anecdotes and culture. Without a doubt highly recommended, even more so with him as a guide. Opinion translated. Show original.

Súper chula , la guía Silvia , explica super bien y la verdad que al ser super simpática se hace súper ameno . El único problema que pondría a la hora de la quedada había gente de varias horas para el mismo tour y eso sí que fué un poco caos pero solo el principio antes de encontrarnos con todo el grupo Translate this opinion into English.

Super cool, the guide Silvia, explains super well and the truth is that being super nice makes it super enjoyable. The only problem I would have at the time of the meeting was that there were people for several hours for the same tour and that was a bit of chaos but only the beginning before meeting the whole group Opinion translated.

El Guia muy amable y excelente explicación, pero desgraciadamente no pudimos hacer todo el recorrido y no pudimos ver el foro palatino, por que menciono que solo irían al baño y tardarían 20 min. después de una hora de esperarlo nos percatamos que ya habían ido al foro, el cual no pudimos ver, decepcionante.

The guide was very friendly and had an excellent explanation, but unfortunately we couldn't do the entire tour and we couldn't see the palatine forum, because he mentioned that they would only go to the bathroom and it would take 20 minutes. After an hour of waiting for them we realized that they had already gone to the forum, which we couldn't see, disappointing.

Los guías se esfuerzan por mantener al grupo unido, pero es responsabilidad de cada participante seguir el ritmo de los demás y no perderse. Aun así, le pasamos nota de los comentarios a nuestro equipo local para intentar seguir mejorando, también en este aspecto del servicio. Translate this opinion into English.

El sitio espectacular, la guía muy bien, el ritmo adecuado y la explicación muy buena y completa. Pero para mi, el entorno es didácticamente un desastre( el Coliseo se salva). Hay que hacer un esfuerzo enorme para imaginar lo que debió de ser en su día; porque hay muchísimas ruinas de diferentes periodos y de algunas no queda "nada". Si te engancha perfecto; sino es desastre y a los niños... Unos paneles, maquetas, realidad aumentada...algo. Estamos en el 2023 por Dios. Translate this opinion into English.

The site is spectacular, the guide is very good, the pace is adequate, and the explanation is very good and complete. But for me, the environment is educationally a disaster (the Colosseum is saved). You have to make an enormous effort to imagine what it must have been like in its day; because there are many ruins from different periods and of some there is "nothing" left. If it hooks you, perfect; If not, it's a disaster for the children... Some panels, models, augmented reality... something. We are in 2023 for God's sake. Opinion translated. Show original.

Sin más. No se ha hecho muy interesante la verdad. La guía era italiana y su español muy bien para una conversación , pero no tan bien para explicarnos la historia del ligar y entenderla. Mi pareja y yo nos perdíamos con las explicaciones, poco fluidas, información poco conexa. Está bien porque te ahorras las largas colas para una entrada normal. Pero no nos ha encantado la verdad. La próxima vez lo vería sin guía

Without further ado. The truth is that it hasn't become very interesting. The guide was Italian and her Spanish was very good for conversation, but not so good for explaining the history of flirting to us and understanding it. My partner and I got lost with the explanations, not very fluid, not very related information. It's good because you save the long lines for a normal entrance. But we didn't really love it. Next time I would see it without a guide

Es una actividad que hay que hacer si tienes pocos días en la ciudad. Son 3 horas de tour, pero la verdad que merece la pena. El Foro romano es lo que más nos gustó sin duda alguna, aunque entendemos que no se puede explicar todo, nos hubiera gustado que mencionara alguna cosa más como el templo dei Dioscuri. Esperaba que la explicación del Coliseo fuese en las gradas, no en el museo de dentro, que al final puedes visitarlo por tu cuenta, pero todo bien. Translate this opinion into English.

It is an activity that must be done if you have a few days in the city. It's a 3-hour tour, but it's really worth it. The Roman Forum is what we liked the most without a doubt, although we understand that not everything can be explained, we would have liked it to mention something else such as the Temple of the Dioscuri. I was hoping that the explanation of the Colosseum would be in the stands, not in the museum inside, which in the end you can visit on your own, but all good. Opinion translated. Show original.
