Loved the experience, Laura did an amazing job of entertaining the children despite the nearly 40 degree heat!! Nice gifts for the children, would recommend and once again thank you Laura :)
Our guide was great. She was knowledgeable, energetic, and young. She had really good visuals to help with her tour that help us envision life back then. We had a good pace. She helped us take pictures of our family. My grandchildren are in that awkward 13 and 14 yr old age. Thought the tour was really good for under 10 yrs. If your youth are into history and older, think this would be good too. The lesson on the Roman numerals could have been a little shorter, definitely geared toward the young.
Our tour was excellent for families. So educational. We really got a sense of the cruelty that took place in the Colosseum thousands of years ago. Our tour guide Alicia was delightful, friendly and very well informed. Highly recommend!
Perfect length for our kids. Enough breadth and depth to keep the adults engaged. Kept moving. Tour guide was adept at keeping us together and moving even with big crowds. Just enough stopping and talking to be informative but not lose the kids. This was an excellent experience. Best for kids 11 or younger, but older kids still enjoyed it.
Evertything was great! Visiting Rome, with kids and mother, in such a hot day, it was great to have our own line and our own guide.. Kids loved it
