Very nice.
Jerome G, Mar 2026
I enjoyed the tour very much so. The guide was knowledgeable, kind and attentive to the group. Also, the group size was small so she made it a point to communicate and talk to every member of the group. I'm 75 years old and she did not make us hurry to all the individual sites, but spent the appropriate amount of time at each site.
A Must Do Tour with Lucia!
John_R, Feb 2026
This is a must do if you come to Merida to see the Roman archeological sites. Lucia, our tour guide, was so knowledgeable about every location and answer all our questions. It would be very difficult to find all of the location that are on the tour without a guide. Lucia had tons of interesting information to share about each site and made the history come alive. She stopped for bathroom breaks and was conscientious about the pace and participants’ need for to stop to a rest. Incredibly enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to all.
Excellent tour

A very informative, well prepared your of the major Roman sites in Merida. Lucia was an EXCELLENT guide. She is very knowledgeable about the history of the romans and the history of Merida. She is very friendly and outgoing and made the tour fun. Highly recommended. She was able to show us areas of Merida where one would not normally see if they toured on their own.
Bright, knowledgeable, and friendly.
