Travel Review: Italy Vacation, Rome, Florence, Sorrento, Pompeii, Mt Vesuvius, History, Art, Culture

Our tour guide in Rome was AMAZING! His english was on point. His knowledge and enthusiasm for Rome was infectious. I could ask him ANYTHING to do with Rome/Italy and he knew the answers! Our guide made sure my son (11yrs) felt comfortable and was able to include fun things about history to make him laugh and to help cement the memory of a particular point in history, art, or culture. It was great having this agent not only because of his knowledge of Rome, but he also knew the best places in museums and in the Forum where we could take the nicest pictures or get a great breeze! He took us to see some sights off the beaten path that was very unexpected for us--and so fun to see parts of Rome that aren't in "tour books". 

My son and I went to not only Rome, but Florence and Sorrento. Rome by far was the highlight of our trip and my son and I agree its because our guide made it so fun and interesting.
