Me molestó no poder llegar a la Arena lo antes posible, práctiamente nos perdimos y cuando pedíamos indicaciones no sabían guiarnos aún hablando inglés. Espero que eso lo puedan mejorar.

I never graded it as "awesome", that was done automatically. I actually did not like the tour. It does not worth the price. The guided tour was dull and superficial. And it started late. Pompei is wonderful, though, and it makes you forget the pettiness.

We met the guide at the door but he simply gave us the printed tickets and told us how the audio guide app worked and how to get in. I thought it was a guided tour, but he gave us the directions and we went at our own pace. Otherwise everything was fine, punctual and pleasant.

Your guide was waiting just where he said he would be guided us into the Colosseum without any fuss and from there we had a great time wandering around at our leisure until it was time to go over to Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum which was another fantastic experience, very please we booked the tickets with you and will definitely use you again at other locations.

Finally, climb the Palatine Hill, the legendary birthplace of Rome, and enjoy panoramic views of the city below. This immersive tour includes ample time to explore these historical sites at your own pace.
