Reviews
I felt the overall itinerary was enriching, and the tour guide was very dedicated and provided detailed explanations. However, we had to arrange our own transportation to the attractions. On the day of my tour, there was a delay with the Vatican itinerary in the morning, which forced us to skip lunch and rush to the Colosseum by taxi. It was incredibly rushed and stressful! Fortunately, everything worked out in the end, but we didn't have time to eat lunch. I'd suggest booking two separate half-day tours for more flexibility.
Lura is a very professional tour guide who explains the historical background stories in detail at each point
