Transfer driver was great

Lindsey ·

The driver put in alot off effort showings us parts of Rome we would not have seen and had great Knowlege of the city. He made the trip and even gave us recommendations on what else to see, which we did decide to do and he was right, they were activities worth doing, such as Cappucini Crib! Only disapointment was when walking round the catacombs we could always here was the tour guide (different person to the driver) was saying so feel like we missed alot of information given.

There was more to this tour than I expected. The his ride to and from the catacombs location took about 45 minutes each, and our driver was incredibly friendly, informative, and an obviously proud Roman. Our guide at the catacombs themselves was also very clear and knowledgeable. This part was about an hour. Well worth the price, I’d say.
