Roma: tour semi-privato di mezza giornata Angeli e Demoni

Our group of 9 people aged 10 to 69 were the only people on this tour (we were the whole group). We were told to walk 2 miles to the first waypoint, the agency would *NOT* provide the bus (but, bus pickup and dropoff was advertised!). One of our group chose not to walk 2 miles just to start the tour, another dropped out about 1/3 of the way feeling sick. The Angels and Demons tour we took 3 years ago was *MUCH BETTER.,* this one failed miserably.

This was a pretty weak, disorganized tour. Our tour guide whose name I can't remember was pretty checked out. It almost felt like he was doing this tour against his will. Don't get me wrong: He knew a lot about the subject matter not the book/movie so much, but definitely about the history. He was just a real bummer to be around for three hours. As someone else mentioned, this tour involves a LOT of walking...and you don't necessarily follow the book/movie as it occurred. Given the logistics of it all and how far apart the locations are spread out, I can understand why the tour is given this way. However, as someone else who reviewed this tour mentioned, one of the sites that we were supposed to visit was temporarily closed. So, we went there, saw that it was closed, drove to one of the other locations, then drove back to the closed location. It makes for a lot of downtime in between, and a lot of unnecessary driving/walking. And, really, it would have been great if he'd checked out the sites beforehand to make sure that they'd be open at the time that we'd be visiting them. I honestly can't recommend this tour. You'd really be better off visiting the sites on your own, at your own pace...maybe over the span of a couple of days.

Our Guide Vittoria was fantastic! Very accommodating. It was just my group and some had to walk slower than others. She did a great job making sure we were always together. She was very soft spoken so I would recommend a head set for the group. It was hard to hear her when we were walking. This was FOR SURE a walking tour. Pretty much NON-STOP walking for 3.5-4 hours so just me ready for that! Thank you for a great tour!

Chiara was absolutely amazing - we felt like we were with a friend and not a generic tour. Good information about all the sites. Highly recommend.

Fantastic tour!! The guide was obviously a fan of the book and movie and we were lucky enough to have a private tour as no one else had booked that time/day

Tour guides were knowledgeable, but this should have NEVER been a walking tour for people our age, and there is no way it should have been offered on a Sunday, when churches are closed for mass! Advertise it correctly as a WALKING tour! Don't offer it on a SUNDAY! Also, you should have some sort of diagram for the participants on how it all fits together. And, the timeline was skipped as part of the tour. We learned afterwards from a later guide that it the timeline was near our first stop.

This was THE best tour i've ever been on. Having never been to Italy and a huge fan of Angels and Demons, I came across this tour with Viator. I read through the reviews and seeing such a positive rating, I decided to give it a try. WOW! It was over 100F that day and although our hotel was outside of the pickup zone, they sent a car to get us. They also drove us to three of the points of our tour to keep us from melting, which made it so much more enjoyable. I do not think we could have survived walking for 4 hours in that kind of heat. Our guide, Victoria, was not only knowledgable about the movie but extremely enthusiastic about sharing all of the secrets with us. Her ability to make it an interactive tour where we had to find the angels and identify the elements at each destination made it so much fun. It became a game of sorts and a who can come up with the answer first!. Her knowledge of Rome and the extra history bits she shared along the tour are pieces of knowledge we never would have gained doing it on our own. Absolutly LOVED this tour and would ABSOLUTELY recommend it to anyone coming to Rome. Thank you Victoria for an amazing experience I will never ever forget!
