Lovely tour

Rebecca_E, Apr 2024

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable of the history and architecture (she was an art student). She was a pleasure.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We appreciate your kind words! It was a pleasure having you on the tour.

Major sights of Rome are better at night

Gregory_F, Apr 2024

Our guide was informative and personable. Gave pertinent information at each stop. Could improve on presentation skills relating to voice projection and needs to avoid turning her head away from the group when looking or pointing at various subjects. It’s hard enough to compete with traffic and crowd noise. Otherwise a fun walk after dark to see the sights of Rome.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We are grateful that you took the time to leave us a review. Hope to see you again soon!

Phenomenal

Gina_B, Oct 2023

Dalila was a phenomenal tour guide. You could tell she loves her job and the history of Rome. My friends and I bought the tickets not knowing what to expect, and we were pleasantly surprised! We had walked by some of the ruins earlier in the day and said things like “ooo old building” then snapped a pic. And now we know the history behind it! 10/10 recommend.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thank you so much for the excellent feedback. We are happy that you enjoyed your experience with us. We hope to see you again very soon!

One of the best!

Christopher_G, Oct 2023

Our tour guide Sila was incredible. She completed her PhD in Roman history and was able to provide special insights for the different monuments we visited that I otherwise would not have gotten from other guides. I recommend the night tour as it was less crowded and more picturesque.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Thank you for letting us and the community know about your fantastic experience with us! We hope to see you again soon.

We couldn't understand our tour leader

Michelle_H, Oct 2023

It was easy to find at meeting place but we couldn't understand her so after about 20 mins we left the group.

Lovely Tour

Holly_M, Oct 2023

The moonlight rome tour was great! Very informative and we saw a lot of the city. Our group very much enjoyed ourselves! A few of us had been to Rome but this moonlight tour gave it another perspective!

Response from Host, Oct 2023

We are glad to hear we provided you with top-notch service! We appreciate the feedback and would love to work with you again.

Excellent experience

Theodora_H, Jul 2023

The tour guide was excellent, providing interesting facts about the locations (not just the usual you can find online). The pace was perfect, the sights were less crowded and beautiful at night. Esoecially the Colosseum at night was more than worth the view!

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. We’re grateful that we had the opportunity to serve you.

Great tour , excellent guide Anastasia

Gohar_B, Jul 2023

Excellent tour. The guide Anastasia was very knowledgeable and helpful. She was taking her time to explain the details of each site in Rome. We definitely recommend to take this tour the first day of your arrival, so you can have better understanding of the city and can get organized for your activities much easier for the second day.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review and helping to share the word about us. We really appreciate it! We hope to see you again soon!

Amazing tour!

Aislinn_S, Jun 2023

My boyfriend and I booked this tour for our first night in Rome on Jun. 28 and we’re so glad we did! Our tour guide, Sharon, was nothing short of amazing. She was friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable. Her tour went at a great pace and was PACKED with amazing facts. She stopped at typical attractions such as the Pantheon or Trevi Fountain, but also showed us so many little gems along the way. We felt like we learned so much in those two hours we had with her. This is a great way to see a lot of Rome in a short amount of time. We’d highly recommend this tour - especially with Sharon.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

We are so happy that you enjoyed your experience with us! We appreciate the great review and look forward to working with you again soon.

Pictures worth 2000 words

Cathryn_O, Jun 2023

Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly, but she was also repetitive and blunt. Because this tour is scheduled late, don't expect to go inside any of the main attractions. Great opportunity for sundown pictures with Roman architecture in the background. We especially appreciated the guide's knowledge of less crowded streets.

10/10

Stephanie_V, May 2023

Such a fun way to sight see with everything lit up at night. Our tour guide Sharon P. was full of great information and was able to give some good recommendations!

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you so much for the great rating & for taking the time to post a review. We're so pleased to see that you are happy with our service. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Eric_A, Jul 2022

Sharon was wonderful. Great to get an American’s prospective of why she fell in love with the culture 40 years ago and made it her home.

Great tour!

Gina_W, Jun 2022

We did not have a lot of time to spend in Rome so this tour was perfect for seeing multiple sights. We were traveling with 2 young children who enjoyed the tour as well. It was great to see the city come alive after dark. Nina, our tour guide, was amazing and very knowledgeable about each of the sights she took us to.
