Florence
We only had a long weekend to do the city and so your tour really helped us get our bearings. There's just so much to see there! I know we only scraped the surface but it worked really well for us.

Venice
This was a great tour that took you everywhere you needed to go. Particularly liked the walk through of the mosaic frescoes on the front of the Basilica.
We had a great time in Venice, made all the more special by this evocative guide.
Like the speaker's voice too - one of the best I've listened to.

ROME - New Discovery at the Catacombs
A new discovery has been made at Catacombs in Rome. Researchers have discovered images of four of the Apostles dating back nearly 2,000 years behind various other paintings in a chamber in the ancient cellars.
As we say in our Rome iPod tour, whereas in many European cities you are surrounded by buildings and monuments that date back hundreds of years, in Rome, they are often thousands of years old. That is part of the unique charm and interest of this amazing city and our Rome audio guide tells you about what you’re seeing as you see them.
It’s thought that these images were painted on volcanic rock around the tomb of a Roman aristocrat who had probably converted to Christianity after it was declared legal by that great friend of Christianity, Constantine.
The catacombs were discovered when work was started on an office block on Ostiense, a suburb of Rome and any Rome city break should include a visit to them.
