Highly recommend

Janet_H, Apr 2024

We spent the day with Barbara and consider it a highlight of our trip to Rome. She walked at a pace which allowed us to see the sights but not feel exhausted at the end. She was responsive to our requests and needs and shared a wealth of information. We highly recommend this tour for young and older.

Secret places in Rome

Liliana_D, Mar 2024

We had a wonderful day with our tour guide he took us places we didn’t know about. Our guide really knew the city’s history. Even though we liked the tour we were a little disappointed we couldn’t visit the Vatican since they are not open on Sundays.

Perfect way to see the city for time limited families

Anonymous, Jan 2024

Our driver and guide Nick was very knowledgeable and great way to see the city’s key sights in a day in a very comfortable way. Skip the line tickets for the Vatican museum was very helpful and tour was very flexible in our desired itinerary. Also stopped for lunch in a nice local restaurant in the time we spent with the guide / tour. Highly recommended

Rome is beautiful to explore and experience by day or night.

Celia_S, Dec 2023

WOW! We had a wonderful day with Peter as our host and tour guide experiencing and learning about Rome! Peter was amazing with his history, knowledge and love for Rome. We had a memorable day and came away wanting to come back to Rome.

The guide was very...

martin_t, Nov 2023

The guide was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. We have been to Rome many times but he was showed us places we had never seen before That was a big surprise

Rome Private tour - 5 Stars!

Karl_P, Oct 2023

One word to describe this tour - Amazing! It was 100% because of Michael our guide. His knowledge, willingness to share and ability to get us into hidden spits around Rome was incredible. If i could give him him more than 5 stars I would. Only negative was tue Vatican was far to crowded. Thats not anyones fault but had i known i might have skipped that part.

Truly awesome experience

David_B, Oct 2023

Tiziana, our guide, made the Vatican come alive with a terrific explanation of the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s. Claudio, our driver, was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend both Tiziana and Claudio!

Thoroughly enjoyable

Miguel_D, Oct 2023

We were blessed with an excellent tour guide who really went out of his way to accommodate our needs. He was fun, informative and very intuitive to our interests. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience that I can highly recommend.

Amazing day in Rome

DIANE_T, Oct 2023

Seeing all the sights and getting the history of the city and buildings. The Vatican and Sistine Chapel were amazing beyond my expectations. My guide Stefan was very knowledgeable and gave me lots of information about places and sights. I would definitely recommend this tour

100% recommend! Best way to see Rome in a day

Ariel_d, Sep 2023

Our tour guide, Stefano, was amazing! He was extremely knowledgeable about Rome, all the various time periods of its history and current culture, and provided a great perspective on how it was for him to grow up there as well. There was not a question he couldn’t answer and was a pleasure to talk to and spend the day with. He drove us comfortably everywhere and showed us a lot of hidden gems. The best way to see so much of Rome in a single day, worth every penny!

Private Tour of Rome

Holly_F, Sep 2023

Our driver was fabulous and so knowledgeable! We saw so much in one day, including lunch at a small local deli that our driver arranged! We certainly could not have had a such a great experience on our own!😁

We paid over $800 for...

Virginia_T, Sep 2023

We paid over $800 for private tour of Rome including St Peters. Francesco drove us all around Rome in a beautiful car and shared lots of info until we stopped at vistas where he’d just go back to car and till us where to meet back. Worst was Vatican museum and Sistine chapel. Gave us tickets and left us there without touring WITH us! $800 for that?

Amazing Guides, Very Comfortable Trip

Tiff_L, Sep 2023

Our guide Peter was amazing and patient, very knowledgeable and taught us everything we needed to know about Rome. He was very polite & made sure we were comfortable throughout the tour, catered to our whims and preferences when deciding where and when to go / leave or what to do next, and gave us great meal recommendations. Our Vatican Museum guide Sylvia too delivered a great amount of knowledge packed within the 2 hours we were with her, and gave us a concise, helpful & eye-opening tour. We initially felt that this tour is a tad costly, but the overall great experience with Peter made it well worth the money at the end of the day - he may well be the best guide we've ever had on the many tours we've been on. Given the fact that most of Rome's key attractions are far apart, this is imo the best, most efficient and most comfortable way to experience Rome.

Worth it!

CHRISTOPHER_C, Aug 2023

Our tour guide was wonderful. She was passionate and comprehensive from start to finish. It was so nice having a car with a/c to get us in and out quickly to see everything we wanted! Highly recommend!

Excellent tour

Christine_S, Aug 2023

Our guide exceeded our expectations. It was a wonderful experience. He took us to places that we never would have seen on our own.

Perfecto Day Tour

Maya_B, Aug 2023

Our tour guide, Pietro was wonderful. He was knowledgeable about the city and graciously showed us around and shared the history. Every moment of the day was perfecto! The privacy of the tour made it easy to customize for our needs and my husband and I had the most amazing experience.

Don’t hesitate!

Dagmar_l, Aug 2023

Petro was an amazing guide! He was patient, funny, knowledgeable, and also a great driver! The tour was a perfect way to see all of the sites of Rome in one day and try not to sweat! I would highly recommend him!

One of the best , if not THE best, experiences I’ve had on any vacation

Ronald_C, Jul 2023

The depth of knowledge possessed by our guide was astonishing! His attention to detail and the care that he demonstrated throughout our experience was inspiring. When we come back, we will book again.

Great Experience! Highly recommend!

Tamara_F, Jul 2023

Fun Sunday

James_P, Jun 2023

The best part of the tour was Peter. An excellent tour guide with a vast knowledge of Rome. Peter was very flexible with our group as some had been to Rome several times And others we’re experiencing Rome for the first time. Turned out to be a lovely day.
