Percy Jackson lovers perfect tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

This is te second time we use Pinocchio Tours and they were more than amazing! My kids love Percy Jackson and this tour was very fun. We really enjoyed the Capitoline museum , so much to see. We loved the guide, 100% recommended!

The most interesting and engaging tour of our trip

Published on Jun, 2024

Bruno was very engaging and great with the kids! Most visitors will go to the Colosseum, Vatican, and Borghese, but this tour covers much more interesting history in my opinion and much more enjoyable as there are no crowds and more leisure. Thank you!

Great value for entertaining and interesting commentary

Published on May, 2024

We were given many interesting facts about various stories behind events that occurred during ancient times. Sara was very engaging

Engaging, entertaining, and educational!

Published on Jul, 2023

Dontano was our amazing tour guide on the Percy Jackson and Ancient Myths Tour at the Capitoline Museums. He did a great job of engaging our tween girls, entertaining, and most importantly educating us all on the amazing artifacts inside the museum. The tour was well paced and Donato was happy to answer all of our questions. This tour greatly exceeded our expectations and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Great for PJ fans and others too

Published on Jul, 2023

My kids are huge PJ fans and they really enjoyed this tour. It’s geared a little toward kids under 10-11, but my teen even liked it. It was also a great way for the adults to see this museum without dragging our kids through it. The scavenger hunt was fun, especially for the 10 yo, who really enjoyed beating her parents (who had not read the books). Simone was very knowledgeable about the art and archaeology we were seeing and able to answer even non-PJ questions. Highly recommend!
