Amazing tour

Ricardo was a fantastic guide - informed, passionate, attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and based on it, would recommend Ricardo and From Eternity Tours.

The Opulence of Shadows Past.

It was incredible to walk back in time. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, professional and a delight. We highly recommend this experience!

Domus Aurea is definitely worth seeing.

Our guide Patrick was exceptional, “6stars”? He mentioned that the order of the rooms on display had been changed and that sometimes that could happen with very little notice, so the tour did not last the full time, but he took us down to the gladiator’s training site and gave us a very interesting insight into what that involved. I thought that showed a lot of professionalism on his part. The virtual experience was almost overwhelming.
