Tour Guide - Alberto

Published on Jan, 2025

We completed this tour in June 2024 and Alberto from Eco Tours was very knowledgeable with the colosseum and palantine hill tour. Information, whitty and engaging. The tour was slightly long on a hot day but we choose the 2 place tour.

Amazing!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was an incredible tour! I unfortunately can't remember our guides name. She was shorter and is an archeologist. Her passion, enthusiasm, and knowledge made this am amazing experience. She truly was the best tour guide we had during our two weeks in Italy!

Engaging and Informative

Published on Dec, 2024

Jeanette was our guide. She was welcoming, organized, and knowledgeable. The tour was well-paced. Although there were crowds galore, Jeanette had a handle on navigating the place efficiently.

Nice experience

Published on Dec, 2024

We have had a nice trip with a good tour guide with us, Ms Maria Luisa. She is very patience to explain about the story and history about colosseum, Palatine hill and Roman Forum. There was not too many crowds during our visit time.
