The best tour I have ever had!
Peter_H, Apr 2024
I am not one to gush but this was, without a doubt, the the most enjoyable tour I have ever had. This was primarily because our guide, Martina, was very knowledgeable and very engaging. She welcomed my questions and her answers were satisfying. Our tour (3 hrs) never dragged. Our group was small enough (3) that we could speak directly to each other... without headphones. Her English was clear and perfect. Her short discourse on the Roman view of the afterlife included interesting references to pop culture. Similarly her backstory on a very fine and rare bust of emperor Comodus, was very interesting and instructive. The role and life of the Vestigal Virgins was fascinating. Her explanation of design of the Forum now makes sense to me. I could go on. In short, it was a privilege to have had Martina as our guide.
Outstanding museum tour!

Private Capitoline Museum tour

If I could give this tour 15 stars I would. Victoria was splendid--she made our tour of the Capitoline Museum come to life this morning. My spouse and I were the only two on the tour. We had some specific requests in terms of the pieces we wanted to see, and Victoria was more than happy. to focus her tour on those requests. I would absolutely pick this tour and Victoria to lead it the next time we're in Rome. Well done!
Superb Tour of Capitoline

When I booked this tour I thought it was a small group not a private tour. I was delighted when I realized that this tour was for my group of 5. The guide's name is Martina - she is a language expert and an archaeologist and is truly the best or at least one of the best tour guides I have had anywhere in the world. My group of 5 unanimously said she was head and shoulders above the other guides we had on a 17 day tour of Spain Italy and France. The Capitoline museum is NOT crowded, has a sublime view of the Roman Forum, and is loaded with Roman-era treasures. My three hours with Martina were one of the best experiences I have had in all of Europe.
Peerless collection of Roman art. Amazing tour guide!
Nicholas_L, Apr 2023
This tour was GREAT! The museum contains so many of the amazing artworks and sculptures removed from all the surrounding ruins. It helps bring the ruins to life. Our guide knew so much history and explained the art so well. We could appreciate what we were looking at. She also made it so accessible for our 13 year old. A very good story teller. The museum isn't crowded and is a real gem. Highly recommend. Possibly (?) the Vatican museum has more Roman statues, but it is much harder to view them there with the thousands of people crowded around you.
Excellent tour and guide
