Rome Combo: Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour + St. Peter's Basilica Guided Tour

There was NOTHING good about it. Without any notice, no guide showed up! When a few people waiting called the company, they were told that no guide was coming because demonstrations were supposedly taking place in the center of Rome! I tried calling, but by then the phone number was no longer reachable! Very frustrating and disappointing, considering that plenty of groups with guides were indeed getting their tour as normal. It is scandalous that we didn't receive any text, message, or email about this!! Now we still have to wait and see if we get our money back... I definitely do NOT recommend this company.

A very comprehensive tour that lets you see or revisit the main sights of the city of Rome. It is also great to do at the end of your trip to get another perspective and a reminder of the monuments you visited or passed by. However, the commentary provided is very brief and adds very little value, interspersed with the same musical soundtrack looping over and over throughout the entire route. This experience would benefit greatly from improving this last point.

The guide was useful in providing an overview of the city of Rome and its numerous attractions. I also enjoyed the historical information. The music was a big too loud and repetitive but the main difficulty was finding a seat with a connection that worked. I noticed other passengers were also struggling to Find working connections. Basically the technology for listening to the audio guide needs fixing or ideally upgrading. The staff were helpful in organising the queue while waiting and providing tickets.

We booked the tour in English and it was fantastic, and we would do it again in a heartbeat! Sean guided us masterfully through the chaos outside and inside St. Peter's Basilica, sharing lots of interesting details, curiosities, and memorable stories. This tour is worth every cent—not only are they the perfect option if you didn't book the free tickets in time, but you should really think twice about putting yourself through the stress of finding your own way through the crowds. We also would have spent a long time searching for the hidden restrooms and the drinking water fountain. Absolutely top-notch—many thanks, Sean!

The tour was easy to book, I appreciated the option to "pay later", the meeting location was nice as we could sit down to have a quick breakfast and coffee. The tour itself was very informative with our wonderful guide, it does feel a bit long as you have to keep walking, wear comfy clothes and shoes and have a bottle of water at hand. Totally recommend these tours.
