Very well organized. We arrived with directions and were welcomed, and shortly after, our guide Chiara engaged us with great enthusiasm, first at the Imperial Forums, then at the Colosseum. It was a fantastic, very comprehensive tour. Chiara explained everything in detail and was very friendly and pleasant. We are really happy.
