      Disappointed
      Jane_H, Oct 2023
      Inside Colosseum & Sistine Chapel were great sights. Organization of tours, recognition of tour staff & rudeness of some involved need improvement.
      Great Tour and Great Company
      Heather_M, Jul 2023
      I had been hearing lots of nightmares of tour companies canceling at the last minute and I was very worried. We had a miscommunication about meeting spots and I was sure we would miss half of the trip, but they bent over backwards to make it right and we were able to complete our tour! I highly recommend this company and tour. It was a long day, but we felt like we saw the most important things and had freedom to explore more, if we wanted to.
      Disappointed and Misled
      Deborah_S, May 2023
      I was lead to believe there would be transportation from the Colisseum to the Vatican and there wasn’t. We are 3 senior citizens (one handicapped) who had to walk miles to get to taxi between the 2 locations then back to the hotel after the Vatican tour. Not what I was expecting
      Terrible
      MARLYN_M, Apr 2023
      Horrible. They do not wait for you even when lost in a city we are not familiar. We even lost our excursion cost.
      Blown away!

      William_M, May 2022
      Collesum tour was excellent. Timing good. Guide was great. I would recommend this one. Vatican was too long. Too much detail. Too many people. Guide did not have a flag. Losing people. Number of people should be limited. Safety hazard
