    Very pleased with the delivery and notices regarding the excursion tickets.
    Skip-the-Line tickets were exactly as advertised. No waiting once the time slot occurred. Had to ask a few questions, but that was just to boost our confidence being an unfamiliar area.

    Family Visited this hotel along with family for dinner. Food was really delicious and mouth watering. Specially the Paan Banaras wala in starter and Chocolate Halwa in dessert must try. I recommend everyone to visit once and taste the food. Ambiance of hotel is also ultra modern and luxury. Staffs are really hospitable and they keep a warm smile on face always.

    Perfecto
    Our trip to the Colosseum on June 21, 2024 with Valentina was amazing. We did not wait on any lines even though it was crowded. Valentina is very passionate about her job and her history. We found her to be very friendly and personable. She made the tour extremely interesting and we learned a lot. We highly recommend taking this tour with her.

    Great experience!
    The tour of Ostia Antica with Francesco was excellent! He is well versed in his history of this ancient city and his passion is evident in all the stories he tells. He was extremely knowledgeable & relayed many interesting facts about this amazing site. The option of hotel pick up was most appreciated as we had already done many walking tours around Rome. Maria was also very accommodating when we had a last minute change in our plans. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome! I would certainly book with this company again on our next trip!

    Poor
    The guides English was terrible. Didn't understand a word she said. If they are giving English tours the guide should beable to speak English clearly.

    Coliseum
    Donatella was our guide. It does help that she is Roman so was very proud showing off her city. Very informative we learnt so much and she was always making sure we were all together. Still cannot believe we have visited the Coliseum I know thousands do every day but it still felt special to me. Definitely recommend this tour .

    Ostia Antica visit it when you visit Rome
    How about I post a few pictures with some travel advice for going to Rome Italy when we can travel again . We spend 8 days there and tried to see everything and failed. We did see the big sites including St Peters Basilica and Square, the Vatican museum, the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill, Pantheon, Colosseum, Castel Sant’Angelo, the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps, many churches including Santa Maria Maggiore, St. John Lateran,Basilica di Santa Croce in Gerusalemme and Santa Maria in Trastevere and the Borghese Gardens and Art Museum, But I'm going to add one more place we visited that we really enjoyed. It is Rome's ancient port, Ostia Antica, which is about 15 miles southwest of Rome and easily reached by a short railroad trip to the modern city of Ostia. We had recently been to Pompeii and Herculaneum on a visit to Naples and felt the same sense of awe in Ostia Antica that we had in those two famous Roman sites. At times it felt like an ancient Roman in a toga was going to show up around the next corner. Only about 1/3 of the site has been evacuated but it includes a great theater, a small museum, a temple, remains of an apartment building and warehouses. My advice is to plan an extra day in Rome, go out by train and then have a late lunch is a local restaurant (which we did). Now I'll post s few pictures. A couple from Rome and a couple from Ostia Antica.

    Martha was all we wanted from a guide
    We visited Rome on December (two couples with three young children of 5 & 6 years). Our Vatican tour with Martha was very enjoyable. Martha is a mother herself and knew the right proportions of information and moving us around so that also our kids loved touring with her. Definitely recommended. Thank you Martha!

    Ostia Antica
    Enjoyed the efficient door-to-door pick up and drop off service, and the personal attention I received from Romina, my tour guide. A very interesting morning tour, and anyone interested in Roman history will get a lot out of it.
