This was a great tour! Our guide Ana was informative, entertaining and had a great sense of humour. We had a lot of fun while learning so much about Rome and its history. I would highly recommend this tour - the value is great. If Ana leads your tour it will be ‘the icing on the cake’.

Benjamin_V, July 2026
The guide was knowledgeable and engaging. The stories were a mix of the darker side of Roman history including murders and dark events, as well as aspects of history you wouldn’t find “whilst on the Vatican tour”.
Response from Host, Aug 2026

Our ghost tour through Rome was one of the absolute highlights of our trip, and that was entirely thanks to our guide, Csmge. She was an incredible storyteller who perfectly blended Rome’s rich history with chilling legends, making every stop feel immersive and unforgettable.
Her enthusiasm and passion for the city’s history were contagious, and she had an amazing ability to keep everyone engaged from start to finish. She was knowledgeable, personable, and had the perfect balance of humor and suspense. Every story was thoughtfully told, and she was happy to answer questions and share extra historical details along the way.
If you’re looking for a unique way to experience Rome beyond the typical landmarks, this tour is a must. Csmge made the city’s hidden history come alive in a way we’ll never forget. We left entertained, educated, and wanting to learn even more. Thank you for such an incredible evening—we’ll be recommending this tour, and especially Csmge, to everyone we know visiting Rome!

Amber_T, July 2026
I was very excited about this tour after our friend had attended last year but our guide was really poor. Did not have any depth of information, I felt i was just following her around the streets, she didn't talk at all unless at a stop and when we stopped shared only a short bit of information with no background. We left half way through
