What are people saying about Rome

Amalfi & Positano Day Trip from Rome with Coastal Cruise

Jessica_R, Jun 2026

We had an excellent...

We had an excellent experience on this tour. We were in Rome for a relatively short trip and wanted to see the Amalfi Coast and were unsure how that would work with the time we had. This tour made it work for us without us having to work through all of the logistics. Positano and Amalfi are both beautiful and worth the trip. One of the best parts about our trip was our tour guy Flavio. He was hilarious and so helpful during the trip. He was very diligent to keep us all on schedule so that we did not miss anything but be still made it fun. I would definitely recommend doing this tour and asking for Flavio to be your tour guide.

alix_m, Jun 2026

The experience itself was...

The experience itself was excellent due to an amazing guide, Joseph. He managed to wrangle all of us in a gentle way. He had so much knowledge to share. My one complaint is how the meeting area is handled. It is a bit difficult for "foreigners" as the Metro B are is in 2 spots and depending on the direction you arrive from you may end up crossing a 6 lane road----The individual who was in charge had a small sign on a stick which was difficult to see. She never said her name nor gave out much information or a smile. We were provided with radios and put on a bus (no intro to bus driver-- ) and told after a 40 minute drive we would get to a place and our guide would be waiting in his car. It was an unsettling start and could be so easily fixed with some shared conversation. Luckily our guide was great and I enjoyed the tour.

This was an amazing tour that we'd recommend to any of our friends and family, particularly our knowledgeable guide

An amazing day in Montepulciano. Excellent food and wines. We particularly enjoyed the knowledgeable guides on the bus and during our walking tour. Klaus' expect knowledge and historical know how was superb. Our bus guide and driver were very supportive throughout our tour.

A Must Do

This was a super long day but worth every minute! The Limoncello tasting in Capri was great! We had lunch a gorgeous waterside restaurant in Sorrento, and Pompei was completely indescribable! Our tour guide Franchesca was super knowledgeable, communicated clearly with us, and was funny too! 10/10 highly recommend this tour!

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Tour + Basilica

Kristi_O, Jun 2026

Skip the Lines and Experience the Best of the Vatican

This tour was absolutely worth it. The Vatican Museums are enormous, and having a knowledgeable guide made the experience so much more meaningful. The skip-the-line access saved us a lot of time and allowed us to focus on enjoying the incredible art and history. Our guide was engaging, informative, and did an excellent job explaining the significance of the museums, Raphael's Rooms, the Gallery of Maps, and, of course, the breathtaking Sistine Chapel. Being able to enter St. Peter's Basilica directly from the Sistine Chapel without waiting in another long line was a huge advantage. This was one of the highlights of our time in Rome. If you want to truly appreciate the Vatican without feeling overwhelmed, I highly recommend this tour.

Great tour and tour guide

Great way to bypass the huge lines. It’s still crowded at various points within the Vatican, but I was so thankful for someone who really knew their way around. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. I wish I had caught our tour guide’s name. He was the perfect blend of informative, caring, and funny.

Pompeii from Rome with Optional Mt. Vesuvius & Pizza Lunch

Roger_C, Jun 2026

Pompeii, Mt Vesuvius hike.

Giovanni , the guide at Pompeii was awesome. Actually from Pompeii and knows the history. Patricia, our guide from start to finish , was clever, funny, also knowledgeable and a great host to spend 6 hours on a bus with. The hike to top of Mt Vesuvius was incredible once you arrived there. Totally worth the effort. The one negative would be the bus ride. The driver was literally all over the road. Couldn’t hold a lane. I thought maybe that was normal , but it wasn’t. But then this same driver easily navigated the difficult drive to Mt Vesuvius. Even with the scratchy bus ride, The trip was 100% worth it.

The Roman world comes to life!!

Such an amazing experience! Our guide Maxi was very knowledgeable and kept us on pace to see the entire Forum, Palatine Hill, and the Colloseum with explanations, drawings, and historical context to help clarify what was going on in different eras and how weather, politics, and social upheaval changed this site and how it was used from Rome's origin to today.

Off the cruise ship

The tour was good. Paola was our tour guide and she was very funny and told us what to eat in every region! The limoncello spritz was a game changer. My new fave drink! Pompeii was super cool. To know that it was lost and then found is crazy. I just wish we had more time in positano!

Vita_S, Jun 2026

More than what we expected! (In a good way)

Marco was a great guide. You will learn a lot of history pertaining to the ruins and Roman empire in general. Comfortable walking shoes, water bottle, business casual attire. May be hard to do with toddlers (have a stroller). Portable fan to keep cool. Hat to shade from sun. If you plan on taking video and/or pictures, a portable power pack to keep your unit charged. Be prepared to find a ride back after the tour ends.

Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Roman Forum Guided Tour

Tia_N, May 2026

A history lesson for the books!

This tour is the perfect way to dive into the history of the colosseum and the Roman Empire , our tour guide was so knowledgable, she paced the tour out perfectly. We will never forget what we learned and the Roman Forum, the Colosseum and Palantine hill will never be overlooked again as we now know the rich history behind each structure/location.
