Phenomenal Experience!

Andrea_M, Apr 2026

This is the way to see Rome! We felt like royalty pulling up to each site and saving so much time getting from one to the next. Ahmed was a fantastic driver and tour guide, finessing his way through the narrow streets while educating us on the history of Rome! He gave us a recommendation for lunch which we thoroughly enjoyed. It was a spectacular experience and worth every penny! Highly recommend this tour, and Ahmed! Read less

Thanks for the positive review, hope to see you again.

A Great Private City Tour !

Harry_E, Sept 2025

This is a great way to see some of Rome’s major attractions. Our driver, Mohamed, was great and thoughtfully accommodated two detours that we asked for, as well as stopping at a small cafe so we could enjoy a coffee and a snack. We highly recommend this tour if you want a civilized city tour.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Ahmed was a fabulous host for our familia trip

Timothy_F, Jun 2025

Ahmed was an excellent driver and tour guide. He customized our tour to fit our needs and made sure we saw everything possible even with road closures that seemed impossible to maneuver.

This was a great tour. ...

Pam_S, May 2025

This was a great tour. Our driver and guide, Mauro, was wonderful. We had a fantastic day and saw everything we wanted to see in Rome.

The best tour ever!

Barbara_S, Mar 2025

If we could give this tour 10 stars, we would. It is worth it to have had a private tour. The tour company was fantastic, communicating with us before we traveled. The communication before and during the tour was great. Our driver and guide, Lorenzo, was wonderful. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel and stayed in touch with WhatsApp. We had a very flexible itinerary and were able to change along the way. That was invaluable and worth having a private tour. While tickets to attractions were not included, we asked the tour company directly to get us the right timed tickets based on their knowledge and timing of the day. We also went to a wonderful, authentic Roman restaurant, Ristorante Ai Bozzi. Bellissimo! This tour company made our one full day in Roma unforgettable. We highly recommend this tour and the tour company, Rome First Choice Tours.

An amazing tour with a remarkable tour guide

Frank_G, Oct 2024

If we could, we'd give our tour guide, Fabio, 10 STARS! He was so friendly, knowledgeable and so fun! Fabio took our group of six to so many amazing, historical landmarks. He gave us historical insight into the religious, cultural and political aspects of this amazing city. We highly recommend Fabio and this remarkable tour! Andrea and friends

It was so great, the tour guide was awesome, he took us to all the sites and showed us where to have lunch. Plus, he took us to anywhere we wanted to and gave us information about Rome. I would definitely book this tour again with the same tour guide. Great Time!
