The organisation of this tour was poor! We did not get picked up from Hotel as promised and confirmed the day prior. We spent time by phone in the morning of the tour chasing the organisation. We were then collected by taxi and dropped off at the wrong meeting point. We then had to ask City Wonders guides for meeting point. As we were due to be collected we didn’t know where the meeting point was! The guide was rushed through the 3 hours. Skip the line still involves a queue. Not impressed with this tour. We had been with City wonders through GetYourGuide on three previous days all excellent.

El guía Juan Carlos excepcional, no informo de todo lo referente a lo histórico, estuvo atento con todas nuestras consultas . Además la Empresa nos devolvió el importe de las entradas ya que en toda la semana las entradas eran gratis dispuesto por el Estado Italiano. Además nos vinieron a buscar al hotel.
