What are people saying about Rome

Helen_S, Oct 2026

Had the time of my life in Rome.

Absolutely you have to book this experience. From the way he communicated before I arrived, to the way I felt so special and he was able to show me Rome and feel like I had my own photographer with me. He made it so fun, I learned so much about Rome from a local, and he was so professional. He helped me have fun and feel safe. I felt like Emily in Paris!!

Amazing whirlwind tour of Rome

Our driver and guide Peter provided an amazing tour of Rome highlights so that we know exactly where to focus our limited hours on our next visit. Peter was born and raised in Rome so his perspective was culturally and historically rich—we thoroughly enjoyed our day and would not hesitate to travel with Peter again. Thank you for a seamless and enriching experience!

Oct 2, 2026 Vatican & Colosseum Tour with Simona & Stephan

This was an incredible tour. This is our first trip to Rome. We chose this, because my husband has Parkinson's, so we knew excessive walking would be difficult. We were picked up at hotel. We saw everything we wanted. Our guide Simona was awesome. He was so knowledgeable. And our driver Stephan(spelling) was a great driver, pleasant and just so nice! They took us to a ristorante where the food and service were spectacular. I would highly recommend these guys for this awesome tour!

An amazing day in Rome

Our driver and guide were phenomenal! We only had one day in Rome and they got it all in! We saw all the popular sights, the Vatican and the Colluseum along with lunch. Gianluca and Elisa were super knowledgeable and were willing to make the day what we wanted it to be. They were truly lovely people and were super accommodating. I can’t recommend this tour enough. There is no way we could have seen it all without them. Highly recommend this tour!

So Much to See in So Little Time! 🇮🇹💖

Claudio was a phenomenal guide! Thanks to his knowledge and expertise, we were able to see and experience so much more of Rome than we ever could have on our own. He is warm, kind, incredibly knowledgeable, and so easy to spend time with. Luca also did a wonderful job arranging our guided tour of the Vatican Museums, St. Peter’s Basilica, and the Sistine Chapel. Everything was so well organized, and it made our time in Rome truly special. We are so grateful for the care and thought that went into our experience. Having Claudio as our guide and Luca arrange everything for us allowed us to simply enjoy Rome and take it all in. Thank you so much, Claudio and Luca! We will always have wonderful memories of our time in Rome and hope to see you again someday! ❤️

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

This tour was...

This tour was spectacular. The van pick up was right at the gangway of our cruise ship, Raffaella, our guide/driver was fantastic. I was traveling with my 83 year-old father with mobility issues and she was so accommodating. We traveled with another family and the small group was really great. Raffaella let us choose where we wanted to go and see so everyone had the experience they wanted. She took us to another place (Monument to Victor Emannuel II Complex) and arranged assistance for my father to get stair and elevator lifts to top floor while the other part of our group went into the Colloseum. She also allowed my father to stay back in the van when he felt he couldn't navigate the place we were stopping. I am so glad we booked this and would highly recommend for anyone who is not sure they can do the walking required but want to see the major sites. We saw all the big sites, Colloseum, Pantheon, Trivi, Spanish steps, Piazalle Navona and St Peter's square and had time to go into the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II, The Pantheon, a church right next to the Pantheon that was absolutely beautiful, and St Peter's Basilica. Thank you Raffaella for a really memorable day!!

Best 7 Hour Rome Shore Excursion from Civitavecchia Cruise Port

Rachel_F, Jul 2026

Richardo was informative and entertaining - we saw many sites in the limited time we had

Our transport was cool and comfortable from ship to Rome. Ricardo, our capable guide was both informative and funny. The pace was slow (sometimes too slow for my preference) but it did allow us to stay together especially in the more busy areas. I wish we would’ve had some free time in Piazza Navona and at the Colliseum but we were able to see all the sites listed in the itinerary and made it back to the ship in plenty of time.

We truly enjoyed the experience. Ricardo and his driver were so accommodating, knowledgeable and perfectly synced throughout tour. Having the air conditioned van to take us from spot to spot was absolutely a must in the heat. Not going inside of each location was perfect for us. Be ready for the heat. Lots of water, hat, small hand fan a must.

Private Tour of Rome Attractions

Nikolai and Andreas arrived at our hotel early and on time to pick us up. We did not have to wonder where they were. Also, we were picked up in a Mercedes van that was very neat and clean. What a nice vehicle to be taken around Rome for our tour! We were taken to several tourist attractions in one day which we would never had been able to accomplish on our own without Nikolai and his ability to navigate these landmarks. We saw the best parts of these attractions because Nikolai knew how to swiftly get us to these places. He personalized our tour to our requests. For instance, we were dropped off at the Vatican at our designated ticket time. We walked a major portion of the Vatican grounds and had our car pick us up at the exit. Very convenient. We would never have seen all 7 sites of our tour had we not booked this private tour. It was well worth the cost based on the time we had in Rome. We had the next day to ourselves and Nikolai provided several suggestions on what we could to on our own for that 2nd day.
