Inaccurate description

Josh_W, Apr 2024

This was inaccurate. There was no guide, and the only line we skipped was the ticket line. We still had to stand in the very long line to check in and enter.

Lack of communication

Richard_S, Apr 2024

Lack of communication. We most likely will never use your company again. We spent more time with this company in the last two weeks than our family.

Tour and arrangements could be better

Jennifer_C, Apr 2024

Tickets purchased through Viator were picked up from a church location approximately 9 minute walk away from the Pantheon - not especially convenient and upon arriving at the Pantheon was utter chaos. I was told to use the middle line and had to rely on the guidance of another tour operator to point out the ‘middle’ line. But despite having concerns we would miss our tour time was pleasantly surprised that the line moved more quickly than expected. Once inside my next set of instructions were to proceed to the audio desk on the left of the entrance. That was a whole new level of chaos and confusion. The 3 staff at the counter looked at one another somewhat disappointed that the tourists for the guided tour actually showed up and it seemed like the person drawing the shortest straw would have to deliver the tour to our group of 3. We actually had to ask if they provided a voice amplification system. Anyone who has been to the Pantheon is well aware of the noise reverberation in that building and the voice system is essential! Aside from these very significant shortcomings our guide was indeed delightful, however his knowledge of the active procession involving the King’s tomb and honor guard was lacking. His response was “ we don’t know what goes on”. I would suggest it would be helpful for tourists if the staff offering the tours were aware of the signifcance of the procession of guards and clergy we witnessed in front of our eyes. Is the Pantheon a worthwhile stop - without a doubt. Could more polish be put into the tours offered and paid for? Without a doubt.

Frustration getting to the Pantheon

Paul_B, Apr 2024

We were disappointed due to the fact the pre booked tickets were collected from a different venue 10 minutes plus away from the Pantheon. We got lost . When we got to the collection point there was a long queue and we we were not the only ones to miss our guided tour.. We feel it was a waste of money to get a pre booked fast tracked ticket. Audio guide is sufficient We suggest that you warn customers to allow at least an hour to collect their tickets. What the crowds would be like in the summer is hard to imagine

Good experience

Amanda_V, Apr 2024

Smooth process. Audio book was great. Was a good option when getting tickets online through the pantheon correct was not an option for us

Must-see

Bryan_M, Mar 2024

Details about how it still uses the infrastructure from the Roman era. It would be nice to go and see a Mass, but that's harder to arrange.

Amazing!

Aaron_M, Feb 2024

Excellent guide and very knowledgeable. Worth the visit to an amazing building. The guide was key in bringing the details and the story to light and I would recommend the guided experience.

Do it just to do it

Jenniser_P, Feb 2024

It was nice. No bathrooms. It was well worth seeing another incredible structure and learning how it was built and whose tombs are inside.

Guide no show! Viator no response!

GRAHAM_W, Feb 2024

Arrived at the meeting place 15 minutes before the tour was due to start, waited 30 minutes, no Guide, tried to call and message the tour company, no response. I notified Viator requesting a full refund, no response!

Not worth the price.

Deepa_R, Dec 2023

This seems way too expensive for the experience provided. The guide is a part of the pantheon audio tour group and meets us at the audio tour booth. There is way too much confusion where to meet the guide. The line is also long even though we have the ticket already (aka the line for ticket holders is long and this tour ticket does not allow you to skip this line). The tour is for about 40 mins and really is very generic. I would just recommend the $8 audio tour instead.

Fantastic

victoriahegedus, Dec 2023

Our guide gave an in depth history of the Pantheon that was stellar. She was able to explain the architecture and the role of the pantheon in past and present.

A guided tour is not neccessary.

Gopalakrishnan_G, Dec 2023

Paid for a guided tour. But at the pantheon they told me its flexible that I can do a self guided or with a in person guide. They were hoping that I don't request a in person guide as there was no others to join us.

Satisfied

Susan_D, Nov 2023

We booked last minute and got right in. My husband is an engineer and he truly appreciated this engineering marvel.

Perfect way to Experience the Pantheon

Ruth_C, Oct 2023

Flavia was an excellent guide...we like this tour because it's a small group, and they guides work for the Pantheon. She had great info about each part, definitely better than just milling around by ourselves. She showed us pictures and videos on the iPad, to get a better feel for the structure of the building...and the history...even raining and rose petals through the Oculus. Engaging and informative, plus skip-the-line...perfect way to experience the Pantheon

Disappointing

Kim_T, Oct 2023

This was the one Viator tour we were disappointed in. it is ridiculous to make us pick up the tickets almost a half mile away and then return to the pantheon. Our guide did not speak very good English and there was difficulty understanding her. I would not recommend this tour.

Terrible, save your money and use audio guide here

Nancy_T, Oct 2023

Do not waste your money on this. We literally stood in one spot, beside the welcome desk as the guide shared some info and then walked 39 steps to the middle of the room where she shared more. There was no passion, no walking to each area to explain the statue or painting or lack thereof. We saw other guides presenting much more passionately and interactively but this tour was not worth it. We would have gotten just as much walking around, and more if we had used the audio guide in doing so. Terrible.

Pantheon Fast Track Ticket

Rico_G, Oct 2023

Worth the admission for a self guided tour. Very informative! I would highly recommend! Minimal time in line to get in is worth the price.

Pantheon breath taking, organisaton poor

Jan_D, Oct 2023

The pantheon is amazing. But the organization and process of collecting tickets cumbersome and confusing.

Very good

Stacie_A, Oct 2023

If you are on the fence about going inside and getting a your, please do. Learning the history helped us tie a lot of Rome together. Definitely worth it

Quick trip to the past and back

Roberto_D, Oct 2023

Left knowing more of the origin and history of this incredible monument, a true testament to the culture and people living here.
