“I suggest you pack your patience. To no fault of the guide. It is very unorganized entry/security check. Too many people are allowed in at one time. You are only showed a specific area of the museum, unable to see any paintings. My want plan a separate tour for that.”

“Great tour! Lots of info, be sure to bring a hat and lots of water, not a lot of shade. Good amount of walking and lots of uneven surfaces definitely better to have a guide pointing out ruins than listening to a recording and not knowing where to look.”

“This tour is 1000% worth it!! Alexandria was our guide on April 29 and I could not have been happier with the experience she provided us. There is simply just too much history and stories hidden in these ruins to go without a guide, and Alexandra spared no details or fun facts. You'd be a fool to come to Rome and not experience this.”
