Learning about the building’s history and construction was fascinating. Our guide was very knowledgeable and very accommodating of our questions. His study and preparation helped us understand the importance of the building. The walk around the neighborhood was an unexpected bonus.

Excellent tour! Our guide, Nastassi (sp?) was extremely informative and thorough. The Pantheon is not huge so it was great that he went into very granular details of the structure. The tour is fast, and I highly recommend booking for the ease of not having to wait in line and receiving an informative tour.

Skip the line option was very worthwhile getting into the Pantheon. Even early in the morning, it made the difference of perhaps 30-45 minutes of wait time.
Our guide was very informative and knew his subject very well. This tour transformed a perhaps 15 minute visit, looking at unknown objects in the Pantheon to a very interesting one hour tour.

Guide was late, we were left out in the pouring rain waiting for him. Lazy effort was put into explaining the history of the pantheon with a lack of formality or professionalism and much more of a casual approach used. Out of the seven guided tours we did in the past two weeks, this one ranks the worst easily. I never leave bad reviews, but this was insulting.

We were met at the meeting point right in front of the building by two of the company employees.
They advised which guide would be taking us into the Pantheon, and were introduced to the other people in the group.
There were just four of us in during our visit , so no need to use the wireless receivers which would have been required had there been more.
We were given an overview of the history of the building and shown many points which without a guide you just would not have seen or known about.
The enthusiasm shown by our guide was great, and she answered many questions which we asked her.
The tour was for 45 minutes, but at no point did you feel our guide was ‘watching the clock’. Our visit was over the hour and we felt it was worth every penny!
The skip the line options was invaluable.

The scale of the Pantheon was amazing. I recommend adding the additional tour of the piazzas nearby the Pantheon. It provides a good context to the surrounding area.

Paul has deep deep knowledge about Rome and it’s history, but he said little about the Pantheon. It would probably have been better to do our own self-guided tour.
