Great day trip! - Giuseppe was a great tour guide. In reading other posts I believe most people are grumpy and have high expectations. We appreciate the knowledge of someone that comes from the area and tells you good restaurants to eat at and stores to shop in. Great day!

Terrific Tivoli - Love seeing the Tivoli garden and Barouque paintings! The experience was greater than expected ! Weather was perfect! Guide was very informative! Only difficulty there were a lot of steps to climb! There is an elevator in gift shop if you ask they will let you use it.

Excellent trip. Fantastic history and amazing to see construction quality of buildings - Marzia was our tour guide. She was extremely informative and very considerate. Excellent experience learning history from her. She connected the villas back to the ancient time very beautifully, showed us all the hidden gems. Walter was very good at driving us. Overall grateful.

Only OK Tour - This was our least favorite tour in Italy. The guides did not compare with others we had in other archaeological places, and we were sorry to have used up a day better spent in Rome.

Very busy. Without much explanation - There is not enough time to visit the village of Adriano. We didn't even see half of the place. The information given by the guide was minimal. Everything was based on really accelerated speed. The same happened in his village, although he was another guide. We were not able to observe the works of art in the Palace, and the visit to the gardens was based on a fast paced walk. It's best to take the train and make the journey on your own.

High Potential low execution - These places I believe has a hugely interesting past to hear about, but the story telling was so poor... When passing by I was reading info posts, as there was more interesting and detailed information.

Bad experience, impose to find meeting point. - Beware, we got sketchy pickup meeting directions that after walking for 45 min we couldn’t find even with GPS or the help of locals and when we called the number provided and asked for help we got yelled at as they claimed they were waiting for us for 15 mins at the pickup point that did not exist or impossible to find to say the least. Beware you might get ripped off your money not nice people with a very shady way to business. I do not recommend.

Avoid - worst travel company experience. - Do not book a tour with Enjoy Rome. Having booked a tour with Enjoy Rome in May for a September date I contacted them directly requesting a confirmation voucher and was advised not necessary turn up on the day. Turned up on the day of booking to be advised that my booking was for May, they couldn't assist me, couldn't accommodate me on the tour and refuse to refund monies paid. Customer Service team are unprofessional, unhelpful, and at no time during June/July email exchange did they check the booking date allowing time for the matter to be resolved prior to my visit to Rome. Avoid
