Take a family-friendly trip to Pompeii with a kid-approved tour guide. Enjoy the drive to Pompeii and a guided tour once at the site, learning about the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D. that buried (and preserved) the town in ash. Though this was a great disaster, it’s allowed modern humans to see exactly how this ancient society lived. After the tour, have lunch at a local restaurant.

What are people saying about Rome

Pompeii & Amalfi Coast Day Trip w/ Positano or Sorrento from Rome

Christina_T, Aug 2026

An amazing experience!

We had a wonderful day visiting Positano and Pompei! We were worried that the day would be too long, but it went by quickly and we really enjoyed our visits to both places. Marlena was an excellent and informative guide, sharing lots of information and stories throughout the day. And Antonio was a great driver navigating the winding roads. Would highly recommend this tour!

Roman Gladiator School: Learn How to Become a Gladiator

Kaley_S, Aug 2026

A must-do for kids visiting Rome!

This was such an excellent activity and experience for our 6 and 7 year old boys! From the moment you arrive on site, you are totally immersed in the atmosphere of a gladiator academy, from start to finish. The tour included costumes, a brief interactive educational chat and a hands-on display of a range of gladiator armor. The kids loved learning about the various weapons and trying on the helmets. From there, we spent nearly an hour in formal gladiator training - doing physical warm ups, learning sward maneuvers and even battling the well-training gladiator instructor. My kids also loved archery training + competition. Lastly, we were all guideded into a mock battle arena for the final fight. It was perfectly dramatized, fast-faced and even concluded with a graduation ceremony of sorts. The whole experience left my boys feeling like true gladiators - so memorable and fun!

Ponza Island Day Trip from Rome with Boat Tour Swimming and Lunch

Christopher_C, Jul 2026

Wonderful Excursion!

This was the highlight of our Rome trip. We wanted to take a break from the heat, and so glad we took a chance to visit Ponza Island! Our ten, eleven, and thirteen year old sons enjoyed swimming and snorkeling. Mara was a fun, well organized guide also! Just a truly fun, memorable trip. Thank you!!!

Colosseum Forum Ancient Rome Small Group Tour for Kids Families

Monica_C, Jul 2026

Great kid friendly tour of the Colosseum

Great tour by Francesco-we had a group of 7 in total with 3 kids who were all similar ages and bonded with the other family on the tour. Francesco kept the kids engaged and built in time for toilets and snacks, which is important when traveling with kids. Francesco has kids of his own and inherently understood what kids are interested in and showed renderings of what the colosseum would have looked like in ancient times. I would highly recommend this tour when visiting Rome.

Rome Sights by Segway Tour

Sarah_L, Jul 2026

Great tour guide

Was a great start the tour guide was lovely so informative and I felt safe on the Segway but 15 mins into the tour we got pulled over by the police!! Who were extremely rude…. The tour guide dealt with the situation very well but unfortunately our tour came to an end ! We received a full refund no questions asked. Was such a shame as felt this would have been amazing….. very professional.

Rome: Pizza and Tiramisu Cooking Class near the Colosseum

Serena_M, Jun 2026

Class was great, loved Sunny

The class (and especially Sunny) was amazing!!! My kids (8 and 11) had such a great time, the class was fun for all of us, adults included. Pizza and tiramisu were not only fun to make but actually tasted good! As a nice bonus, it was SO hot and this was such a welcome reprieve from the heat, AC was blasting and perfect.

Pizza & Gelato Cooking Class in Rome, Hands-On Italian Experience

Danielle_G, Jun 2026

We loved making pizza with Mattia!!

Our family of four, including two girls ages 11 and 8, really enjoyed our pizza and gelato making experience. Mattia was a wonderful teacher - he walked us through and explained each step with such knowledge and patience, and was very sweet with the kids. The food itself was delicious and to know we made it ourselves enhanced the experience even more. Highly recommend!!

Family-Friendly Vatican Tour for Kids with Sistine Chapel

Jessica_W, May 2026

Claudia was incredible!

Claudia was a phenomenal tour guide with our family (5 people, kids 2 and 3, parents and Grandma). The day wouldn't have been the same without her. She's been doing tours for at least 10 years and knew exactly how to navigate the Vatican with ease and history behind everything we asked about. She kept our 2 and 3 year old interested with a scavenger hunt, even though the tour is recommended for kids ages 6 +. The Sistine chapel was beautiful and we were able to pray with the kids. We did not do Peter's Basilica due to the line and ages of our kids, but ending in the square is an easy way to get souvenirs and eat lunch in town. Thanks Claudia!

Rome: Evening Golf Cart Semi or Private Tour with Aperitivo

Ava_L, Apr 2026

Fabulous tour with Emmanuel!

This sunset tour with our guide Emmanuel was fabulous! He is smart, funny, and engaging. Started off with Prosecco, had wine and cheese in the middle, and ended with a great selection of beer and wine from a small shop. Saw all the highlights including Trevi fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum, Roman forum, Circus Maximus, Vittoriano, and ended at the top of the Spanish Steps for a different view, where the tour ends. Could have walked down, but we chose to head back to the hotel from there, (taxis are available) and Emmanuel recommend a great place for a Gelato. We highly recommend this fantastic tour of Roma!!

Colosseum Tour Express for Kids and Families in Rome with Local Guide Alessandra

Daniela_K, Oct 2025

Highly recommended for kids

We had a private tour with Roberta. We all loved it. It was very informative and the perfect amount of time for my girls aged 10 and 12. Roberta was fantastic, she kept the girls entertained and explained things very well. My kids really bonded well with her and made sure I completed this review. Thanks Roberta from Sophie and Micaela from Australia!
