Nuestra guia Bárbara ha sido muy amable y ha explicado todo muy bien. Lo único que mejoraría es que el guía espere un poco más al grupo para evitar perder la escucha de las explicaciones. Somos conscientes de que es complicado porque podría hacer tapón. Recomendado 100%. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Barbara has been very kind and explained everything very well. The only thing that would improve is for the guide to wait a little longer for the group to avoid losing hearing the explanations. We are aware that it is complicated because it could cause a block. Recommended 100%. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad muy bien. Ha sido amena y muy entretenida. Verdaderamente la guía ha realizado un gran trabajo. No obstante, indicó que la experiencia podría haber resultado EXCELENTE si el grupo hubiera sido un poquito más reducido. Creo que 30 personas, somos muchos. Muchas gracias.

El gran número de personas hace perder el atractivo de la excursión. La multitud sofoca. Es un producto muy caro que debe limitar el ingreso. Incluso los guardias ordenan a las personas a gritos y eso no corresponde. Pocos servicios higiénicos y sucios.

The large number of people makes the excursion lose its appeal. The crowd suffocates. It is a very expensive product that should limit income. Even the guards shout orders to people and that is not appropriate. Few hygienic and dirty services.

Francesca ha sido una guía escepcional, además de enseñarnos perfectamente todo.,se nota que disfruta de la historia de Roma y así te lo trasmite. Consigue que las tres horas largas de museo se hagan muy amenas, y te quedes con ganas de más.... Gracias Francesca. Translate this opinion into English.

LA GUÍA ES EXPERTA EN EL TEMA PERO UN POCO “REGAÑONA” TAMBIÉN DEBERÁ DE SER MÁS ESPECÍFICA PARA ESPERAR A LA SALIDA DE LA CAPILLA SIXTINA Y PODER INGRESAR A LA BASÍLICA DESDE AHÍ. HAY DOS PUERTAS DE SALIDA Y ESO CONFUNDE. POR LO DEMÁS, BIEN. Translate this opinion into English.

THE GUIDE IS AN EXPERT ON THE SUBJECT BUT A LITTLE “SCALING” YOU SHOULD ALSO BE MORE SPECIFIC TO WAIT AT THE EXIT OF THE SISTINE CHAPEL AND BE ABLE TO ENTER THE BASILICA FROM THERE. THERE ARE TWO EXIT DOORS AND THAT IS CONFUSING. OTHERWISE WELL. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nuestro guía Andrea era muy culto, una explicación magnífica y maravillosa, todas las dudas la resolvía, magnífico y simpático, repetiría mil veces con el. Por poner una pega, las radios nos las dieron en el Vaticano y tuvimos mala suerte al tocar nos unas que se enganchada en la oreja y no llevaban auricular, por lo que eran bastante incómodas, pero supongo que eso no es culpa de nadie y es cuestión de suerte... Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide Andrea was very cultured, a magnificent and wonderful explanation, he resolved all doubts, magnificent and friendly, I would repeat with him a thousand times. To add a drawback, the radios were given to us in the Vatican and we were unlucky when we touched ones that stuck in the ear and did not have an earpiece, so they were quite uncomfortable, but I suppose that is no one's fault and it is matter of luck...

Fabio supo dar una explicación muy amena y entendedora. A pesar de que había mucha gente, supo buscar sitios para dar las explicaciones y mantener el grupo unido. Muy recomendable. Lástima de la gran cantidad de gente, que no te permite disfrutar de las obras, pero es eso o nada. Translate this opinion into English.

Fabio knew how to give a very pleasant and understanding explanation. Even though there were many people, he knew how to find places to give explanations and keep the group together. Highly recommended. It's a shame about the large number of people, who don't allow you to enjoy the works, but it's that or nothing. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fantástico. La guía, Francesca, además de hablar estupendamente español (cosa que se agradece en un guía pues no todos los que hablan español lo hacen bien) es una gran conocedora de la historia y el arte y explica estupendamente, contestando con amabilidad (y conocimiento) cualquier duda que le planteábamos. Recomiendo esta actividad y si la guía es Francesca, más aún. Translate this opinion into English.

Fantastic. The guide, Francesca, in addition to speaking Spanish wonderfully (which is appreciated in a guide since not everyone who speaks Spanish does it well) is a great connoisseur of history and art and explains wonderfully, answering with kindness (and knowledge). any questions we raised. I recommend this activity and if the guide is Francesca, even more so. Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour en general es interesante la valoración me resulta un poco complicada no tanto por la guía que lo hizo muy bien sino por la totalidad de las características.. Creo que está excesivamente masificado de gente, no es posible disfrutar de lo que se está viendo.. grandes oleadas de personas que te arrastran.. bueno.. insisto en la buena calidad de las explicaciones de Valentina y su preocupación y rápida resolución ya que los audios no funcionaban correctamente en el grupo... el Vaticano umm Translate this opinion into English.

The tour in general is interesting, the assessment is a little complicated for me not so much because of the guide who did it very well but because of all the characteristics. I think it is excessively crowded with people, it is not possible to enjoy what you are seeing .. large waves of people that drag you along... well... I insist on the good quality of Valentina's explanations and her concern and quick resolution since the audios were not working correctly in the group... the Vatican umm Opinion translated.

La actividad fue excelente. Valentina fue nuestra guía y es una bellísima persona y gran profesional que conoce sobradamente la historia y responderá a todas tua dudas. Mi pareja es sordo y ella ha estado pendiente en todo momento que siguiera las explicaciones y a todo el grupo igual que los demás. Siempre nos iba indicando y si en algun momento la perdías de vista por el auricular te iba guiando superbien Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was excellent. Valentina was our guide and she is a beautiful person and great professional who knows the history well and will answer all your questions. My partner is deaf and she has been making sure that I followed the explanations and the entire group just like the others.

Nuestra guía María ha sido un encanto, las explicaciones han sido estupendas, hace que la visita se haga corta. A pesar de todas las personas que había (casi que no se podía andar) ha hecho la visita amena y siempre ha estado pendiente de enseñarnos todo, de hecho si tenía que hablar con el personal para no hacernos esperar las colas...lo hacía, cosa que se agradece muchísimo. También le agradecemos que nos haya dado su teléfono y que nos ayudase con las dudas. Recomiendo hacer esta visita. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide María has been a charm, the explanations have been great, she makes the visit short. Despite all the people there (you could hardly walk) he made the visit enjoyable and he was always willing to show us everything, in fact if he had to talk to the staff so as not to make us wait in lines... he did it , which is very much appreciated. We also thank you for giving us your phone number and for helping us with any questions. I recommend making this visit. Opinion translated. Show original.

Sobre la guía Laura y sus explicaciones fue todo excelente. La visita en sí muy atropellada por la inmensa multitud de gente, ejemplo el LAOCOONTE Y SUS HIJOS, sólo veíamos las cabezas y los móviles. No se disfrutaba de la visión de las obras de arte con tranquilidad. Avanti, avanti, prego. Esta visita debe ser de excelente para los amantes al arte. La guía maravillosa, pero las multitudes deprecian la visita hasta poder decir que mal. Translate this opinion into English.

Regarding the guide Laura and her explanations, everything was excellent. The visit itself was very overwhelmed by the immense crowd of people, for example LAOCOON AND HIS SONS, we only saw heads and mobile phones. The viewing of works of art was not enjoyed peacefully. Avanti, avanti, prego. This visit should be excellent for art lovers. The guide is wonderful, but the crowds depreciate the visit until they can say that it is bad. Opinion translated.

La visita fue mal por el tiempo y por el mal sonido de la guía. Pero ninguna de las dos cosas depende de vosotros. La verdad es que me gustó la exposición y el entorno es genial; pero no hay tiempo para ver todo lo que hay que ver, y salir de allí sabiendo que te faltaron cosas por ver no es agradable, porque igual es una ocasión única en la vida. No esta mal para tener un contacto; pero no para salir pensando que "lo has visto". Insisto no es culpa de la guía. Ella lo izo bien, o muy bien.

The visit went badly due to the weather and the bad sound of the guide. But neither of those things depends on you. The truth is that I liked the exhibition and the environment is great; but there is no time to see everything there is to see, and leaving there knowing that you missed things to see is not pleasant, because it is still a once-in-a-lifetime occasion. Not bad to have a contact; but not to leave thinking that "you've seen it." I insist it is not the guide's fault. She did it well, or very well.

Giampiero es fantástico, se nota que le gusta su trabajo. Si que me faltó un poco más de explicación y detenimiento en la escultura clásica, puesto que hay piezas como Mitra matando al toro o Pericles, por poner un ejemplo, de las que hemos pasado de largo. Supongo que es cuestión de espacio/tiempo, pero en general muy bien. Muchas gracias equipo! Translate this opinion into English.

Giampiero is fantastic, you can tell he likes his job. Yes, I lacked a little more explanation and detail in classical sculpture, since there are pieces like Mithras Killing the Bull or Pericles, to give an example, which we have passed over. I guess it's a matter of space/time, but overall very good. Thank you very much team! Opinion translated. Show original.
