“Felicity (Fee) was absolutely amazing! Our tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill would not have been the same without her. She was professional, kind, incredibly knowledgeable, and so entertaining from start to finish. Fee explained everything in such a clear and engaging way, making the history come alive instead of feeling overwhelming. You could tell she truly knows her material, but what really made her stand out was how she kept all of us involved in the conversation. The tour felt interactive, personal, and genuinely fun. I would highly recommend any tour Fee leads — she made the entire experience unforgettable!”

“Our guide Teresa was absolutely the best!!! She had deep knowledge of the history of the place and passed the information to us in a very smooth and relatable way. Her command of the English was top notch making it even easier to understand and remember what was said. She kept calling us “my family” and I dare say it was spot on as it truly felt that way😊. We enjoyed the tour very much and we highly recommend it to anyone having doubts about booking one. The information you get out of it makes the experience of touring Pompeii completely different.”
