We ask all guests to be ready for the pick-up at the scheduled time. If you think you can’t make it in time, please call the number that you can find in the confirmation e-mail or in the “Contact” pages of our website.
Please note that missed tour cannot be rearranged or refunded.

Payments on our website should be make by credit card at the time of reservation. We assure to our customers the highest level of security and protection.
Can I join a tour on wheelchair?
Unfortunately, not all the tours are available to wheelchairs. We cannot accomodate wheelchairs on our small party tours, because most museums and sites have a separate route for wheelchair which is forbidden to those not in wheelchairs.
For most of our tour, we can arrange wheelchair users on private tours: please contact us via phone or via e-mail for further information.
Are children strollers allowed on every tour?
Unfortunately, not every tour are accessible with strollers, as some museums or touristic site don’t allow to bring them inside.
Please contact us via phone or via e-mail if you are travelling with children needing strollers.
The tour is confirmed even when it's raining?
Sure, bad weather doesn’t stop our tours! Just remember not to bring a big umbrella with you, as some sites or museums do not allow them inside.
In the rare event of closures due to particularly hostile weather (for example, of Colosseum in case of flooding) we will reschedule your tour or find an alternative one.
