Highly recommend secrets of the Louvre with Avi

Highly recommend this tour of the highlights of the highlights of the Louvre! Avi was an excellent tour guide sharing history and stories. Very engaging! The museum was extremely busy. It would have been very frustrating to navigate on our own. Thank you!

A great way to take in some of the main tour site in Venice. Guides were very knowledgeable about Venice’s history, especially Sylvie.

Monika was a fantastic and well informed tour guide for the Colosseum Arena Floor and Forum tours. Unfortunately is was during the heat wave in July but she did her best to keep us in the shade to the degree possible. Outside of your control, but Rome needs to do a better job with expediting the line into the Forum area, or at least cover the line/waiting area with some sun protection.

Reply from The Tour Guy2026-07-14

Hi Scott, thank you! We are so glad Monika kept you shaded and engaged during that July heat. We totally agree about the entry lines and advocate for improvements where we can! Please tell your friends about The Tour Guy, and we hope to see you again soon.

Easy to reserve and setup our tours

Hi John, thank you! Have an amazing tour and tell your family about The Tour Guy when you get back!

Lots packed into this tour!

Our guide did a wonderful job. We covered a lot of ground in a relatively short amount of time and saw most of what we wanted to see in Rome in one day. Certainly there were places we would spend more time, but this was the only way to cover so much ground. Highly recommend!

Reply from The Tour Guy2026-07-14

Hi Peter, thank you! Our day tours are perfect for checking off those bucket-list spots efficiently. Please tell your family about The Tour Guy, and we hope to see you for a deeper dive next time!

Simona

Our guide, Mike, gave a great tour of the forum and colosseum. Our tour of the Vatican (with Simona) was just awful. She was kind and professional, but the structure of this tour was really rushed and I would have rather just waited in line to peruse the Vatican on our own. I’ve been to the Vatican before, my husband has not. I was so disappointed for him as we only saw maybe 20% of the entire Vatican. We skipped the most profound and intriguing art collection on the planet entirely. We didn’t see the gardens. Barely received any information of substance, and spent like 15-20 minutes outside of the museum discussing a sign that gave an overview of the Sistine Chapel. Everyone was just ready to get on with it after a lengthy process accessing the Museum with security. A waste of time and money. The only reason I booked this tour was because I was scammed out of our actual Vatican tickets by a fake site and the official site did not have anymore for the week we were in Rome. I didn’t think the experience would be this bad, and will not be booking these types of tours again. I would also like to state that while the tour guide may not have had the most intriguing information, she was nice and did her best to keep our group of very annoying tourists organized.

Reply from The Tour Guy2026-07-14

Hi Ashley, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are so glad that Mike gave you a great tour of the Colosseum and Forum, and that you found Simona to be kind, professional, and excellent at keeping the group organized. We are very sorry to hear that the Vatican tour felt rushed and did not meet your expectations for your husband's first visit. Because the Vatican Museums house miles of galleries, our highlight tours are carefully structured to focus on key masterpieces and the Sistine Chapel within a specific timeframe, rather than the entire collection or the gardens. Additionally, due to strict Vatican rules prohibiting guiding inside the Sistine Chapel itself, our guides must use the official overview boards outside to explain the artwork beforehand. We have shared your comments regarding the pacing and content depth with our Rome Manager to see how we can refine the experience. Please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can look into your booking and get this resolved. We hope to have the chance to deliver a much more satisfying experience for you both in the future.

We had the BEST Colosseum tour with Monika

We had the BEST tour with Monika for the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palantine Hill. She was an expert on not just what she showed us, but Roman history, art history, food, and anything else you'd need to know about Rome. Thank you Monika!!
