Did two tours in Rome with this company and both our guide were great. Our kids still talk about them. We did not have the same exoerience with another provider in Florence.
Roberta was very knowledgeable and did a great job keeping my kids engaged for the tour. (My kids range from 8-14) we all learned a lot and she brought props and pictures to help us really visualize what she was talking about. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see the colosseum!!
We were shocked (in the best way) at how engaged our kids were the whole time! The guide made it fun, interactive, and just the right pace
