What are people saying about Rome

Thao_N, Apr 2026

This was the best tour...

This was the best tour we’ve taken abroad! Christina, our guide, was knowledgeable, engaging, and efficient. Considering the volume of tourists and the sheer volume of things to get through, I felt like we more than got our moneys worth. I would highly recommend taking this tour if it’s your first time or just to glean more info.

Amalfi Coast & Positano Day Trip from Rome with Coastal Cruise

Sarah_G, Apr 2026

Almafi Coast Tour

Our Amalfi Coast tour was a great option for seeing a lot in a short amount of time. The biggest benefit is having transportation coordinated for you, which makes the day smooth and stress-free in an area that can be tricky to navigate on your own. While it could likely be done less expensively if you planned everything independently, the convenience and efficiency made it worthwhile for our trip. If you have limited time and want someone else to handle the logistics, this is a very good way to experience the Amalfi Coast. It's gorgeous and we highly recommend.

Pompeii, Sorrento & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

Alex_W, Apr 2026

Amazing experience, Amazing guide

This is by far one of the best experiences you can have in Rome whether traveling solo, or as a group. The trip allows you to get a small view of a bunch of different aspects of Italy as a whole and is broken up into very manageable segments. Personally my favorite part was our guide Eduardo who is the best guide I’ve ever had and one of the most personable people I have ever meet. During the trip he was there to meet our every need whether we had questions about the history of an area for which he had plenty of facts having studied history, or cuisine, and others. During the time I also was able to converse with him about some of his travels for which he has plenty as well which are amazing to see and he will make suggestions for visiting those areas as well. Overall an excellent tour but least to say I believe Eduardo is the one who makes it a better experience. Least to say if I could give this tour higher than a 5 I would. Thanks Eduardo!!!

Henry was awesome!!!! so...

Henry was AWESOME!!!! So passionate, captivating and good at narrating this tour! He made it a 5 star experience for sure. He even kept his calm when a nearby tourist took off with his informative book that he had been sharing with us. Luckily we ran into the that person before we left the coliseum and were able to return the missing book! Henry you’re awesome!!! Thank you for being entertain, kind and classy!

Pompeii from Rome with Optional Mt. Vesuvius & Pizza Lunch

krista_t, Apr 2026

Great tour

Wonderful day trip to Pompeii and Mt Vesuvius. Rob was our guide and he is amazing! Smart, funny, thoughtful, and kept us entertained all day. Bus was very nice, long drive but we stopped to break it up. Pompeii guided tour, then a fantastic pizza lunch at a local restaurant halfway up Mt Vesuvius with an amazing view of the bay. Hiked up Mt Vesuvius to see the crater and views. Lemoncello stop and then back to Rome. Long day but definitely worth it!

Pompeii, Amalfi Coast and Positano Day Trip from Rome

Frank_P, Apr 2026

Best time ever!!

Dress for the occasion. Check the weather and wear very comfortable shoes and get ready to have the time of your life! I can just tell you our tour guide Sarah was phenomenal. And I have to give a shout out to the bus driver. He sure knows how to handle that vehicle. Never felt nervous or worried at any point or time. I'm just telling you the whole experience was fantastic! I do it again and again. I'm bringing my family back in October more than likely the 12 of us will all do it then. I'm bringing my wife with our sons and their wives and my grandchildren.

Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum Guided Tour

David_C, Apr 2026

Very interesting but not enough time to see exhibits- tour length needs to be increased

Our tour guide was Heidi and whilst she had good knowledge and told us lots of facts we felt quite rushed as the tour didnt allow time to stop to look at the exhibits along the way or even a toilet break until the end. At the end of the tour we would have been able to go back & look but there were few signs so we gave up. We would suggest adding an extra hour to the tour length would make it a much better experience

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Tour + Basilica

Erin_H, Apr 2026

Take the tour!

This was my third tour of Vatican / Sistine Chapel. I learned more on this tour and the two previous combined. Fred is an archaeologist, and he spoke for the entire three hours, nonstop, providing an unbelievable amount of historical, religious, societal, and cultural information. I would never see anything this important without a guide. You will be missing a lot of really important information, plus standing in line for hours. Five stars. Came with friends, family, daughter and husband. All were happy!

Fascinating

Great guide who answers all questions with expert knowledge. She managed the queues very well and filled in gaps when we were waiting around with good stories whilst we waited. Very nice voice with good, clear English. I liked when she tried to invoke the atmosphere of the amphitheatre and the tunnels. I thought she was very knowledagle

Jennifer_S, Apr 2026

Great half-day trip from Rome

This was one of the highlights of my trip! Alicia was a fantastic guide. She was so engaging and knowledgable about the places we went and area as a whole. I really loved her energy and storytelling style. I also enjoyed the flow of the tour itself, and it made me want to spend more time in Tivoli.
