Tour falls short of description.

The only memorable part of the tour was the Catacombs. The driver did not speak English. We were supposed to walk on the Appian Way and see the Roman Aquaducts. He took us to a small section of the Appian Way that was in town. He then wanted to take us to a church. When we told him that we wanted to go see the Aquaducts, he drove down the Appian Way that we were to walk on. When we got to the Aquaducts he would not stop to for us to take any pictures. I believe that we were not supposed to be driving down the Appian Way. Overall, we were disappointed with the tour.
Latin student’s dream come true.

Since studying Latin in high school (50 years ago), I have always wanted to see the Coliseum, the Pantheon, the Appian Way, and the catacombs. I was able to see it all. Our driver was very nice, very patient. And adjusted our trip in a moment’s notice.
Good tour, with very nice guide, but I thought we were also going to acqueducts

When I originally booked this tour, it was largely because I wanted to take my husband to see/drive by the Roman acqueducts...because at that time the tour title and description included that in it. But at some point that was removed, and I didn't realize it until we were on the tour and I asked the guide about it and he was surprised and said we weren't going to the acqueducts. We did really enjoy our tour guide, and I loved walking on the Appian Way and seeing the catacombs. The guide/driver was friendly and knowledgeable. It was en enjoyable tour.
