Civitavecchia to Rome City: Private Tour of Rome Highlights

Harmony_C, Mar 2026

The Best Way to Experience Rome — Ask for Peter!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience exploring Rome with Peter as our driver. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make our day smooth, memorable, and stress-free. Peter didn’t just take us to the typical tourist spots—he thoughtfully guided us off the beaten path, showing us hidden gems and local perspectives we never would have discovered on our own. His knowledge of Rome added so much depth to the experience, and we learned far more than we expected. He was also an excellent driver—professional, safe, and incredibly efficient. Thanks to him, we stayed perfectly on schedule without ever feeling rushed, which is no small feat in a city like Rome! If you’re planning a visit to Rome, I can’t recommend Peter enough. Having him as your driver will truly elevate your entire experience.

Rome Fiat 500 Vintage experience

Ralph_K, Mar 2026

5 stars for this trip, book it now!!!

We had an amazing experience on the Fiat 500 tour through Rome with Luca! It was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. Driving through the streets of Rome in such an iconic car was already special, but Luca made it truly unforgettable. He was a wonderful host — friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the city. He shared interesting stories, showed us beautiful spots, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. You can really tell he loves what he does. If you’re visiting Rome and want to experience the city in a unique and fun way, I can only highly recommend this tour — and especially Luca as your guide!

VIP Tour of Rome (3/5/8hrs) Colosseum & Vatican Museums

Fran_K, Mar 2026

Covers all the bases

It might seem pricey but I felt it was well worth the money. Being able to skip the line I’m sure saved hours of time. Even though it is early in the year and the city is not crowded, the lines at the venues were very long. My husband and I are not young and cannot cover the territory like we once could, but this tour is flexible in that regard. Did we see every single thing on the agenda? No. But we finished the day on time having seen amazing things we absolutely never could have on our own. Our guide and driver were kind, considerate, and a delight to be with.

Exclusive Rome tours, Driver & Tour Guide, Colosseum & Vatican

Frances_L, Dec 2025

Fantastic tour, guide, and driver. Excellent experience.

This was an excellent trip. Andrea was the driver and Nicola was the guide. They picked us up at the hotel and were on time. They were both very friendly and accommodating. Nicola has a fantastic personality and was born in Rome. He is an excellent Historian as well which made the tour intriguing all the way through. We learned so much on this trip about the Vatican, art, artists, museums, and all the historical sites we visited. And we learned about Rome along the way to our destinations. It was myself, husband, and our 25 and 23 year old son and daughter, (and they LOVED IT!). They actually said they wished we booked Nicola for all of our tours because he was that good and entertaining. Access was simplified, not waiting in long lines was great, and a personalized experience is the only way to go. In a short time we maximized the highlights of Rome. I highly reccommend this tour and guide. We had fun and a lot of laughs.

Rome 4 Hours Private Guided Tour with Pickup in Luxury Minivan

Peter_K, Dec 2025

Amazing tour of Roma

Salvatore was an exceptional guide who transformed our half-day tour into a captivating journey through Rome's history. He wasn't just informative; he was a master storyteller who brought the city's ancient ruins and vibrant piazzas to life. His passion for Rome was contagious, and he provided the perfect blend of grand historical narratives and fascinating hidden details. For anyone seeking a rich, engaging, and perfectly paced introduction to the Eternal City, I cannot recommend Salvatore highly enough.

Fabulous, safe and informative!

Michael was an excellent SAFE driver, and so very informative of Rome and its treasures. Fantastic knowledge of the shortcuts throughout the streets and traffic of Rome, which gave us the opportunity to see much more than what we would have hoped to see if we had chosen to take the cruise tour bus! We are so thankful to have had the privilege of seeing so much of Rome and its many treasures in just one day. Thank you Michael! Cheers! Devin and Tressa

Rome Small-Group Shared Tour from Civitavecchia: 8 People Max

Lorin_M, Nov 2025

Ricardo our guide was...

Ricardo our guide was excellent, getting us to 10 sites in Rome in only 6 hours! He found us a tour slot for the catacombs, which was one of the highlights of the day. My only criticism would be of the tour scheduling (not in Ricardo's control) . We were never given a pickup time but were asked when reserving the tour for our arrival time. We assumed that our pick up was between 7:30 and 8:30 am. When no one was there to meet us, we called and were told 9:15 was pick up time. We could have got an extra hour of sleep.

Excellent Guides. Excellent English. Very knowledgeable and personalized to our interests. Carlos our driver was a great driver though traffic and parking was challenging. Raffa our Vatican and Colosseum guide was so knowledgeable and gracious. Highly recommend this tour! Couldn’t have been better.

Full Day Rome Shore Excursion from Civitavecchia Cruise Port

Teresa_C, Sep 2025

We paid for a small group...

We paid for a small group of 6 tour & ended up with a group of 14 as we were joined by another car of 8. They were late which delayed our excursion start by about 30 minutes & I was very disappointed that I thought we had paid for a group of 6 to tour with & had a larger group to maneuver about Rome with.... (was delayed twice because of the 2nd group). The tour guide & our tour of Rome was excellent. (I would like some clarification about the tour changing from 6 to 14 people - I would recommend the excursion but not sure about the small group if it means you are going to be joined with other small groups. This was not what I thought we were paying extra for??? I really feel like we should get some money back for the larger tour group &/or that it should be mentioned in the description that it is a car for 6 & not a tour group of 6 you are paying for.... Again, The tour guide & the tour of Rome was excellent.

Half Day Tour of Rome

Sabrina_B, Sep 2025

The Perfect Day

There is so much to see, and so little time. Our driver, Manuel, was fantastic. He knew how to maneuver the back roads of Roma and we were able to fit in a lot more than we thought we could given our tight timelines. When you’re in a city that has so much to offer, it pays to have someone who knows the city. In addition, he was gracious enough to help us get into St Peter’s church, and made a suggestion for a fantastic restaurant for to grab a quick bite and some great wine. He also made some recommendations for our next visit to Italy, and we’ll make sure to look him up when we’re back in town!

Rome Termini Station Luggage Storage

Adrian_G, Jul 2025

Simple to do and perfect service

We only did this last minute as we had a few hours to kill in Rome before flight home. Literally outside the door of the station and can’t miss it. Right next to where we caught the bus back to airport so was so so easy. Straight in and no issues. Even left a jacket with them strapped to case and they were fine

Rome to Cruise Port

The driver was very friendly and helpful. He arrived on time and got us safely to the port. The customer service was very helpful with answering questions. The car was nice and well kept. Plenty of room for us and luggage. I would use this service again and recommend to anyone considering using it.
