Well worth it! - Our tour guide operator worked hard to find a guide for us when the original one was unable to do it. We lucked out and got an amazing guide that also works in the synagogue archives. She was personable and knowledgeable and we were lucky to get her!

The Best Tour of the Jewish Quarter/Ghetto! - Our experience with Sara Terracina on the Jewish Ghetto Tour was 10 of 10. She is knowledgeable and passionate about sharing Roman Jewish history. We felt like she started the tour as a teacher & ended as a friend. You will learn things from her that you will never learn from a book. Her communication before the tour was excellent and we paid in advance through PayPal. She offers group & private tours. I would recommend her tour to anyone visiting Rome! *Definitely peruse the lovely museum gift shop. Lots of beautiful Italian earrings & artisan items you won't see elsewhere.

Great to learn about the oldest Jewish community in Europe - Our tour guide arrived promptly, and was a great person to spend the morning with. She was very knowledgeable due to being a member of the Roman Jewish community, and walking around knew many of the people in the area and the best places to eat. She had first hand knowledge of the museum, the Great Synagogue, and important history of the community. The Synagogue was beautiful, the museum excellent, the history interesting and the it was an all sound great experience!

Reimbursement request - Greetings, we were very sick the morning of July 7 and were unable to make the tour. Then I received a message from the tour guide telling me I was booked on two tours that day: morning and afternoon. This was confusing and caused some stress. We had a lot of success with viator on our Italy vacation-this particular tour notwithstanding. Given the confusion and stress, I respectfully ask that I be reimbursed the $210.88. Thank you very much for your consideration.
