Great for the kids

The Percy Jackson tour was perfect for our son (7) and also for our young daughter (4). Our guide was engaging with the kids the entire time and very knowledgeable about the history of Rome and incorporating it with Roman mythology. It was a unique tour which our kids loved.

Great fun!

we signed up for this tour last minute as we were finding that our hotel concierge could get any kid-tours for us in Rome. Maria was great getting our 10 year old twins interested in ..another museum. She kept us and our kids interested throughout the Capitoline Museum even though it was very hot day. Absolutely recommend Viator's kids-tours for any sight.

Our guide was Maria, who was absolutely amazing! She was so attentive to our 12 year old daughter, who already knows so much from reading all of Rick Riordan's series of books. Our daughter loved discussing all the stories behind the masterpieces of this Museum! For kids and adults-don't miss this!
