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.

Muy buena excursión. Puntualidad, fácil de seguir, con tiempo suficiente...Vincenzo ha sido nuestro guía y no ha podido ser mejor. Ha explicado de forma muy amena, sin recargar con datos imposibles de retener. Ha cuidado de nosotros, controlando siempre el grupo y nos ha proporcionado una gran experiencia Translate this opinion into English.

Very good excursion. Punctuality, easy to follow, with enough time...Vincenzo has been our guide and he couldn't have been better. He has explained in a very entertaining way, without overloading with data that is impossible to retain.

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.

Recomiendo la excursión porque es mucho mejor que verlo por libre , no pierdes detalle y se hace muy interesante . Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Alessandro has told us a lot of history and interesting anecdotes. It was obvious that he knew a lot and he told us about it in an excellent way.

La visita con la guía fue bien, la chica muy amable y simpática, pero el tour no nos gustó mucho. Apenas tuvimos tiempo de ver las cosas, todo muy acelerado y demasiada información en poco tiempo. Para mi gusto pues un poco más de tiempo libre para disfrutar del coliseo y hacer algunas fotografías. Por lo que recomiendo hacer la visita por separado seguramente se disfrute más y no todo tan de prisas.

The visit with the guide went well, the girl was very kind and friendly, but we didn't like the tour very much. We barely had time to see things, everything was very fast-paced and there was too much information in a short time. For my taste, a little more free time to enjoy the coliseum and take some photographs. So I recommend doing the visit separately, it will surely be more enjoyable and not all in such a hurry.

La actividad es espectacular, te sumergen rápidamente en la historia de Roma. Maravilloso. Podrían cambiar los equipos de radio por unos de mayor alcance, ya que cuando la guía se alejaba un poco se perdía la señal y nos perdíamos parte de las explicaciones. Translate this opinion into English.

Puntualidad a la hora de empezar. El recorrido muy bien pensado y organizado, con un aparatito con pinganillo individual que permitió escuchar las explicaciones sin ningún problema. Y lo mejor de todo, Elisa, nuestra guía, que nos explicó todo con simpatía y amabilidad, y se notaba que era gran conocedora de la historia de Roma. Atenta a cada detalle y a responder todas las dudas. Una experiencia de 10/10. Translate this opinion into English.

Punctuality when starting. The tour was very well thought out and organized, with a device with an individual earpiece that allowed you to listen to the explanations without any problem.

La visita estuvo bien relacionada al contenido , la guía sabía mucho ( es arqueóloga ) pero no fue un tour dinámico, por momentos se hacía tedioso. Me hubiera gustado más que también incluyan datos anecdóticos y sea más interactiva como otros tours que hice y nos contaban curiosidades sin perder la historia real del lugar.

The visit was well related to the content, the guide knew a lot (she is an archaeologist) but it was not a dynamic tour, at times it became tedious.

Toda la actividad me ha parecido perfecta gracias a nuestro guía, Tom. Además de dar tiempo para que uno vaya al baño, rellene la botella de agua y tenga su ratito para sacar fotos - "es una visita, no una tortura" decía-; fue puntual, muy carismático y es una fuente de conocimiento inagotable. Su español es PERFECTO, siempre atento a cualquier pregunta y una paciencia infinita (incluso ante la estupidez humana más flagrante). Gracias, Tom, por la experiencia.

The whole activity seemed perfect to me thanks to our guide, Tom. In addition to giving time for one to go to the bathroom, refill the water bottle and have a little time to take photos - "it's a visit, not torture" he said -; He was punctual, very charismatic and is an inexhaustible source of knowledge. His Spanish is PERFECT, always attentive to any question and infinite patience (even in the face of the most blatant human stupidity). Thanks, Tom, for the experience. Opinion translated.
