Unforgettable experience, it was such a great time

I had an amazing experience on the Ghosts and Dark Stories of Rome tour with Ariel as our guide! She was fantastic, very knowledgeable, and made every story so interesting and atmospheric. Her storytelling brought Rome’s mysterious past to life. She was friendly, engaging, and made sure everyone enjoyed the experience. Highly recommended!

Rome Underground: Catacombs Tour, Aqueducts and Appian Way

Stephen_K, Oct 2026

Great tour by John Paul!

Had an excellent tour led by John Paul! John was friendly, professional, and imparted a lot of knowledge about Rome to our group. Our group size was 14 and the pace was good. Our driver was friendly as well. Of note, we did not see any skulls or skeletons in the Catacombs. The Catacombs are still interesting to experience, but there are not many objects inside. The Park of the Aqueducts was my favorite part of this tour, as it was a serene and picturesque spot away from the busy city center of Rome.

Another way to see Rome

A different tour from the typical route taken through Rome; if you want to know hidden and/or little-known stories of the city, this is a good option. Approximate duration 90 Min, our guide was very warm and performed her work with great professionalism.

Vespa Sidecar Tour By Night with Pickup

Daveena_S, Oct 2026

Happy to recommend!

One of our favourite experiences in Rome. Get to see a lot more of the city than you may have had time to visit otherwise in a fresh and entertaining way. What we loved most were the personalities of our drivers and the feeling of zipping around on a scooter and sidecar along with the locals. We felt safe and well looked-after the entire time. thanks Simon and Enrico!

Haunted Rome: Eternal City Night Walking Tour

Great haunted for of old Rome

A great way to explore old Rome on our first night. Exploring ancient streets and learning about the haunts, serial killers and superstitions built into some of these old buildings. Ana was a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. She kept my attention engaged with a scavenger hunt for Madonnellas. Thanks Ana!

Rome Night Tour: Ancient Rome at Twilight

abby_j, Sep 2026

Perfect for the summer

The experience was very enjoyable. I got to discover new information about the history of Rome , both ancient and modern (with a focus on the ancient as the title suggests), through our excellent guide Joan. He was informative and friendly and made us all feel at ease. Hearing about the history helped me understand this city much better so I would recommend this tour. Also this part of rome is magical at night especially if you want to avoid the heat and the crowds.

Andrea, gracias por todo.

Andrea guided us in Spanish. There were only Spanish and English as options. The tour was very informative and exciting; even if you think of scarier stories when it comes to ghosts, it wasn't very scary. From Castel St. Angelis, it goes in different stages to the Mercato dei Fiori. Tip: anyone who has time should go see the castle beforehand.

Night Tour of Rome with Local Pizza Dinner and Gelato Experience

Jennifer_P, Jul 2026

Beautiful city tour!

We truly enjoyed our night tour! Luigi was a fantastic guide - knowledgable, accommodating and he went out of his way to make sure our tour was wonderful! We booked a group tour but it turned out to be just the two of us! Such a beautiful way to experience Rome at night! Our dinner was delicious and the gelato at the end of the night was a perfect way to finish the tour! Kevin was a great driver and we enjoyed their company! The pick up and drop off at our apartment was easy and stress- free! We would recommend this tour!

Fun niche history out of the heat!

A great add on to my Rome experience and nice to do a walking tour at night with more of a niche historical spin. My guide was well informed & friendly. She had many fun facts about the buildings we walked through and even gave us a few “spot the” activities

COMBO: Rome's Capuchin Crypts Tour & Rome's Dark Side Ghost Tour

Jordyn_C, May 2026

Fun spooky stories you won’t hear on any other tour! Thanks Ben!

We had an excellent time on our tour, Ben was our guide for both, and I learned so many spooky stories and facts walking through Rome, things we passed by multiple times on the trip and didn’t even notice! The crypt was so fascinating and beautiful, not at all what I expected. We aware; if you book the combo tour it is a lot of walking, so make sure you’re prepared for that. They do sell them separately too if you don’t think you can walk that long, our tour finished after 10pm. We loved it though!

Ancient Rome’s Dark Side

We loved Ben! He was very knowledgeable & answered any & all questions you had. He had visual aids to assist, too! He knew so much about Rome and its history. You truly learn so so much on this tour. We would highly recommend if you’re interested in learning about Rome and the dark side of the history!

Rome Ghost Tour - The Original

Shay_S, May 2026

We have done haunted...

We have done haunted tours in other cities and they are hit-or-miss. This was definitely a hit! Our guide, Ali, was very informative and engaging. Whether you believe in paranormal things or not - a good haunted tour should still be exciting with historical information and macabre stories. This tour definitely fit the bill. Totally recommend for anyone who enjoys spooky stories and unique historical anecdotes. From a practical standpoint, the tour was easy to find, great communication from the company and guide, and the walk was very doable. Thanks, Ali - we had a fantastic time!!
