Alessandro was very knowledge friendly and entertaining. Was on time and catered our tour to our needs. Also took us to sibella resturaunt which was fantastic. Great day !

Our tour guide/driver was great. He was very informative, didn’t rush, and also took our photos multiple times. I must admit that Tivoli Gardens is one of my favorite places that I have been to. Lots of history and waking around for both areas. A must if you want to do something out of the city. Left at nine and was back by four.

Alessandro was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and accomodating of our interests. He is a nice person and we had a fun, educational day.

Gave the tour at four, because they turned off the water, so no fountains were running the day we went. It was no fault of the company, however. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, and it was fun to hear all the stories and see what the ruins ones look like. In short, it was worth every penny.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Dear, grazie for your review and as you underlined the fountains were off due to rain! So I should have a 5 Stars...review.
Anyway thank you!

Response from Host, Jul 2020
Grazie mille for this beautiful, helpful and so quickly unexpected! I thought you were still busy with back home actions.
Thank you, it was very nice to meet you, guide you and spend relaxed time with you and your beautiful family, so polite, so nice!!! Grazie 🙏

Alessandro was an excellent tour guide. He was patient and attentive to what we wanted in a tour. Both sites were beautiful and his passion and knowledge for the history surrounding the villas made the day engaging and fun. Even my ten-year old, who generally thinks tours are "not her thing" enjoyed the experience. I'd found other similar tours that were more expensive and not private. This was a fantastic price and much better than other tours we've taken. I highly recommend this for the quality and value. Alessandro is a gem, and one of the better tour guides out there.
Response from Host, Jul 2020
Dear Laura, I have just noticed that I have not replied you beautiful review yet. I beg your pardon, probably I have been shocked by this incredible Covid story, so difficult to survive without tourists. Anyway I thank you very much and hope to meet you again and please, spread over my contact, word of mouth for us is very important. Grazie, thank you very much.
