This was the perfect length for these sites and our tour guide was very knowledgeable. She provided the right amount of history while also inserting some stories that added a more personal way to connect with the tour. She also allowed time for photos while keeping the group moving. Would totally recommend this one!!!!!

Great tour with a lot of ground covered. We were really glad to have booked a guide, instead of going by ourselves. Priscilla is very knowledgeable and has a unique way of telling her stories and historical facts. Her storytelling takes you right back to ancient times. It was fantastic, great sense of humour, we learned and lot and had fun. Definitely recommended!

Carolina gave a very informative walk, academic and precise. We started on time and covered all the spots without being too rushed. The group is polite and although it is Easter Monday and we were not able to go inside the Pantheon due to Covid restrictions, Carolina made sure our time was well used and took us on a vibrant walk through the Jewish ghetto. Thank you and will definitely recommend to my friends!
