I think as a person in all of us like José the best of all of our guides. Difficult to get enjoyment out of an afternoon walk when the temperature is easily over 37°C. Also, not the guide's fault but one of the most important areas of Hadrian's Villa was inaccessible secondary to work being done. I brought my family there to see Hadrian's Villa but, frankly, was unimpressed with that and not just because of the heat. Appears not to have been updated in a long time. However Villa d'Este exceeded our expectations. Also, it is always the little things. The guide took us to our best meal in Rome. Homemade lasagna has and the best porchetta.

really loved the tour to Tivoli. It was nice change from the hectic pace in Rome. We loved our guide, Diane, so personable and passionate about sharing her knowledge. we had a special connection with her as she had been our guide in Florence for the Introduction to Florence tour. Really great tour!

All 4 of our guides were excellent!!!!!
