The tour was very informative. We visited many places in the tour.
It would be nice if the meeting place was a place with shade and seating area. We came 20 minutes before the tour and we stood in full sun.
Nice Tour

The tour was okay but it's hard to follow Rome in a Day tour with Kate with anything. Monica did a good job and we enjoyed seeing Rome from a bus and seeing the walls of the city the way they used to be so it was worth it but a bit of a letdown following the amazing day prior.
Sweet and very accommodating.

I took my mom on this tour because it went to all the places she wanted visit. She had some mobility issues, but did all the tours without any issues. They were very patient and accommodating with my group.

The tour was interesting, and our tour guides knew their stuff. Our initial group at the Crypts was a good size at 12, but for the Catacombs they merged two groups to create a larger group of over 20, which was a little too large given that once inside the Catacombs it was difficult to hear and see at the back of the pack. This was no fault of the guide, but strictly the size of the group. The addition of tour headsets for groups this size would help to alleviate this issue.
The Crypts Tour can be done without a guide as you are provided self-guided headsets, but for the Catacombs portion the guide helpful re: all the information.

I have been to Italy a millions times since for the last 20 years and every time I come I see something new. This year we brought our 11 year old twins to see the splendor and booked the tour for the Catacombs - something my husband and I have never seen before. This was a great tour very informative and just the right length of time so you could see everything but not bore the kids! Matteo was terrific
