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’.

This was great fun and something different to do in Rome.
The tour guide was informative and gave a lot of interesting facts about the district.
I loved Anna my tour guide. Very informative and shared her paranormal experiences she herself had encountered.
I did this on my last night in Rome, and it didn’t disappoint. It was a fun way to see the city at night and we learned a lot of stories and facts about some of the way “punishments” were dealt back in the day! Our guide,, Smit, was super engaging and very passionate about the stories he shared. Highly recommend this tour!
We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide shared alot if information about the different places she took us to. We didn't have any ghost sightings but it was a busy night in Rome.
Our tour guide Anna was incredible! She was entertaining and knowledgeable! She was able to answer all our many questions and kept the group engaged as well. This tour may be one of our favorite tours in Rome.
Elina was a fantastic guide. Would recommend. Very knowledgeable and entertaining! A must do in Rome

Great tour to learn more about the history of the families that lived in Rome. I wish I had gone on the tour at the beginning of my trip so that I could visit some of the places that were referenced during the tour. I would recommend this tour for a different but informative experience.

Less scary and more dark side of some of the sites and sounds. More true crime, all of which I thought were very appropriate and cool
