Hello dear team, I would like to thank you very much for yesterday's tour. And special praise goes to my tour guide, who provided first aid immediately when a man was hit by a car before we started the tour. The tour guide reacted excellently in this situation. Overall, she was a great companion for the entire tour. I am always amazed at how much knowledge and information the guides have.
As for the tour itself, I can only say: WOW! The many impressions and facts about what I saw kept me busy for quite a while afterwards. I can really recommend this tour to every visitor to Rome.
Thank you very much for this great opportunity.
Best regards
Susann

Susann, this is incredibly kind of you, thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review.
First of all, we’re very proud of your guide for stepping in so quickly before the tour even began. Our team is trained to handle more than just ghost stories, but it’s always reassuring to see that calm, professional side in action when real life intrudes on the evening.
We’re also delighted that the tour stayed with you afterwards. That’s exactly what we aim for: a Rome ghost tour rooted in real history, the kind that keeps turning over in your mind long after the walk is finished. The city looks charming, but once you know what happened on those streets… it’s hard to un-know it.
Thank you again for recommending the tour to other visitors to Rome. If you return and feel like meeting a few more sinners, ghosts and unfortunate nobles, we’ll be here. With more stories and, hopefully, fewer car accidents.

Susann, thank you for this incredibly thoughtful review and for joining us for the combo tour.First things first, we’re very proud of your guide for stepping in so quickly before the tour even began. Our team trains for more than legends and skeletons, and it’s reassuring to see that calm, professional side in a real emergency.We’re delighted the rest of the evening stayed with you afterwards. That’s exactly what we aim for with the Capuchin Crypts and Dark Side tour, a mix of bone chapels, true stories and the sort of Roman history that quietly rearranges how you look at the city.Thank you for recommending us to other visitors to Rome. If you come back and feel like adding a few more morbid facts to your memory, we’ll be ready for round two.

While she was very nice, I’ve had much better tours. She was highly repetitive in her speech almost like she kept losing track of what she was saying. My 10 year old even said something about that. The joke (I assume) she kept trying to bring back around wasn’t funny. I’ve had incredible tours that were either outrageously funny or historian like education so maybe I’m being too critical. It was a nice way to spend an evening nonetheless!

Fun evening experience
My family (two adults and two teens) really enjoyed this tour. It was a fantastic and engaging way to learn Roman history and our guide (I believe Ben was his name) was very personable and also gave us advice on restaurants and other sights.

Thank you for spending an evening of your family holiday with us. Two adults, two teens and a lot of imperial crime is a pretty good mix.We’re very happy to hear the tour worked as a fun way to absorb Roman history without anyone having to suffer through a textbook. Ben will be pleased to know his stories and restaurant tips both landed well.If you’re ever back in Rome and up for more ghosts, murders and slightly unhinged emperors, we’ll be here.
