Want to give you some feedback on our tour. We had a great time, and Ken was a fantastic tour guide…..just the right amount of information, more if you asked specific questions. Very knowledgeable, and personable, injected some humor where appropriate. Overall a very enjoyable experience (despite the heat and crowds). We will definitely recommend this to others. Again, want to praise Ken for his wonderful job!

We toured the Vatican with children and tour guides included them well.We where there a couple of days each side of NewYearsEve. Rome was packed with what appeared with mainly Italian tourists which is fine if you dont mind huge crowds. Our tour guide at the Vatican said if we had arrived after the 5th or ^th of Jan Rome have been pretty empty so if can manage those dates it will be much easier to move around the city.

Did the Roman Forum & Colosseum tour in the morning with Jimmy, no regrets...without him it would have been just another photo taking place...
if you have done some sort of history course or extensive reading, you won't know where to look and Jimmy does it with ease and makes it all the more interesting with other bits of information...
Heart of Rome tour in the evening...we have been through the places on our own over the past 2 days...felt like photo taking places again...been there...done that...but with Jimmy along it was a whole new experience again...we learned so much more and combined with info/experience in the morning we saw how much history was intertwined which enabled us to SEE things around the city of Rome and not just dismiss them as just another statue or obelisk...

We took the Vatican and Colliseum/Forum tours during the last week of May 2009. Jimmy was our guide for the Vatican and was incredibly enjoyable and entertaining. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history. Our boys are 9 and 11 and he kept their attention during the whole tour. His knowledge of Michaelangelo and his works was so interesting. As was the history of Vatican City. This was our favorite tour in our 2 1/2 weeks in Italy.
Tom was our guide for the Colliseum/Forum and was also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He was very detailed in the stories of these sights. Again, keeping our boys' attention during this tour.
I would highly recommend this tour group and would use them again next time in lovely Rome.
