Bra guider men dåligt ljud

"Svårt höra guiden i radion vi lånade. Borde varit hörlur i båda ögonen och inte bara det ena. Men turen var fin och vi fick se allt vi räknat med och fick veta en hel del spännande saker från de kunniga guiderna. Tips: ta med egna lurar om du köper denna tur."

Mikael

Guid i vaticanen/colloseum

"Det enda jag har stt anmärka på är att guiden i vatikanen borde haft ett vindskydd och mikrofon närmare munnen då hade upplevelsen varit 5/5. Däremot guiden på Colloseum var en 5:a."

Juha

Bra!

"Vi beställde en öppen biljett till vaticanmuseerna och colosseum. Det var exakt som väntat men ett + i kanten var att när vi hämtade biljetterna så fick vi eskort ända in i museet! Det var skönt då man kände sig trygg med guiden (som vi fick följa med, inget vi hade bokat) som berättade att här ska vi stå i kö och igenom säkerhetskontrollen och hon var så vänlig och hämtade våra biljetter och sedan lämnade hon biljetterna till oss och släppte iväg oss att gå själva i museet. hade jag vetat att gguiderna vartt så vänliga hade jag beställt med guide :) JÄTTERBA!"

Johan christian, Säffle

Fantastisk guide

"Giusippei var bare god til sit arbejde og fantastisk til at vise rundt og hans viden var bare fantastisk alle pengene værd og gør det gerne igen."

"Vatikaanissa erinomainen opas ja muutkin hyviä, Hyvin toimiva "ohita jonot". Ainoa miinus että vaikea löytää toimistoa ennen Vatikaanin kierrosta."
