Viva Roma - I booked this tour for my dad and my friends as we were all traveling Italy together. It was such a wonderful experience and our tour guide was incredibly smart, funny, her English was terrific, and she was so full of knowledge and inspiration. It really made Foret a wonderful trip and I’m so glad I booked it for all of us!

Amazing sites - Very interesting! Our guide was informative and kind. It was hot and sunny throughout the tour and she was always looking for places to talk in the shade. The sites themselves are amazing!

Great tour of the Rome highlights - Great tour guide and visit to the ruins. Well organized distribution system that made going on the tour easy. One word of caution that was not stressed by Viator but other guests who booked on different services were aware of--it pulled my name from the profile and did not reflect the passport (Bill vs William). Took a supervisor at the coliseum who understood that it was a nickname and allowed me in. Not the tours fault, and we really enjoyed the day seeing the highlights. Guide was very knowledgeable and kept it interesting and helped the stressed participants in the high heat to get water and shade.

Must see! - The topic and sights are hard to beat! Our guide did well keeping us in the shade, but did not have great strategies for keeping the group together or speaking to us. Simple things like counting family units instead of individuals can really make a difference!
