    Alex was a great tour guide and tried really hard to keep all the kiddos interested. However, there were more than 12 people in our group, and there was not a treasure hunt/or prize at the end. My kids were really looking foreword to a treasure hunt, so this was a let down for them. Either the description needs to be updated, or we didn’t get the treasure hunt and prize.

    We had a great tour with our kids (ages 8 and 10). There were 12 of us total - 3 families with 6 kids and 6 adults. Our guide Martina was great about directing her attention at the kids and making sure the info was at their level. But at the same time, the adults could learn as well. It was not a cheesy or dumbed down tour but rather a tour that was enjoyable for everyone but kept the kids engaged. We would highly recommend this tour and want to give a huge thank you to Martina!

    Hard to find the guide with it managed. And from there, it was a fantastic kid-friendly ride in the Colosseum and in the Forum. Maria was our guide and she made it so incredibly exciting for children - and adults. Lovely but was day. Remember plenty of water and some snacks for the kids.
