What are people saying about Rome

Rome: Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill Guided Tour

Shelley_B, Aug 2026

Colosseum Tour review

The tour of the Colosseum was incredibly good and seeing into the past,over 2000 years ago. Our tour guide Salvatore was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and very patient with a very large group. We enjoyed spending our afternoon with him and learning so much about the history of the Colosseum. I would highly recommend Salvatore to anyone looking for a tour guide.

Pompeii from Rome with Optional Mt. Vesuvius & Pizza Lunch

Jenna_B, Aug 2026

Must do trip from Rome!

Tour through CityWonders. Meeting point was clear and easy to find. Antonino was our guide he was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and organized. The pizza lunch was incredible! Our Pompei tour guide was also very knowledgeable. This tour was the perfect overview of Pompei (about 1hr40min) and mount Vesuvius (about 1hr 30min total). Definitely wear athletic clothes and gym shoes! Bus ride is long but comfortable & air conditioned. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Rome: Tuscany & Montepulciano Day Trip with Lunch & Wine Tasting

Carmela_Z, Aug 2026

Tuscany Delight

It was a very enjoyable day visiting some beautiful towns lt gives you a great insight and had I known how beautiful it was I would definitely have added it to my trip Also I can’t forget to mention our tour guide Valentina and our bus driver Francesco they also were great.

Pompeii, Sorrento & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

Benjamin_C, Aug 2026

Great tour for a day trip from Rome :)

FANTASTIC TOUR! The guides were lovely, knew a lot of historical facts, the cool restaurants, where to take the best “insta” shots and were genuine people. The tour is a bit pricy but it is so worth it. It is about 2-3 hours one way, however there is a stop along the way for food and toilets. I did the pompeii and sorrento option and do NOT regret it, such a magical place. Shoutout ORIO 💪

Colosseum, Palatine Hill & Roman Forum Live Guide or Audio App

Zaynab_M, Aug 2026

Amazing Experience!

This 3 in 1 package is a steal! Being able to have access to the Coliseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill was very convenient especially since they’re all in the same vicinity. I will note, they really stick to arrival times so be sure to arrive early for your guide/pick up your tickets. We opted to do the audio guide and it was definitely worth it because the audio guide was so informative and easy to follow along. 10/10 highly recommend for your next trip to Rome.

Skip the Line Vatican, Sistine Chapel and Basilica Guided Tour

Vernon_B, Aug 2026

Best tour guide!

Christine is undoubtedly the BEST tour guide in Rome. We were so fortunate to have her lead us through the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. She was engaging, entertaining, and incredibly knowledgeable. Highly recommend requesting her specifically for your tour!

Pompeii, Amalfi Coast and Positano Day Trip from Rome

Aaron_G, Aug 2026

Great for day trip to Positano and Pompeii!!!

Wow what a memorable trip with Enrica… an Italian Nonna with a heart of gold! Full of knowledge and humor and I loved her energy and attention to the admittedly tight timetable. Everything was so smooth and seamless for the trip… no need to charter a bunch of private taxis. There is definitely a lot of drive time probably about 6 hours total, but it’s broken up enough that it doesn’t feel that way. I do wish we got to spend more time in Positano, only ended up being about 1.5 hours there, but there were adequate breaks included throughout and all things considered it was a great value. I suggest if you want to spend a full day in Positano to actually stay there overnight somehow. The tour guides at Pompeii were also awesome. All in all highly recommend.

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

Binh_T, Aug 2026

Amazing tour!

It was an amazing tour. Gaga was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and made sure all of our questions were answered. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I wouldn’t have the same experience if i went there myself. Would definitely do this tour all over again. Everything was breathtaking.

Amalfi & Positano Day Trip from Rome with Coastal Cruise

Angelo_D, Aug 2026

Amalfi tour

Tour was a lot but the tour guide was 10/10. Roberto or Rob was amazing, he made the whole experience so special. Very down to earth, knowledgeable kind and accommodating. He gave us amazing recommendations and treated us as if we were family. Easily one of the best high lights on my trip.

Tivoli Full Day Trip from Rome: Hadrian's Villa and Villa D'Este

Virginia_T, Aug 2026

Villa d’Este is awe-inspiring

Fantastic insight into Roman society 2000 years ago at Hadrian’s Villa (palace) and 1800’s at Villa d'Este, which has been on my bucket list since I learned about Italian landscape design at university. Totally worth the visit despite the punishing heat in August. The hydrological engineering & use of what starts as a tiny water source into multiple fountains & sculptures without use of pumps or electricity is awe-inspiring & spectacular. Definitely a highlight of my trip.

Colosseum & Forum with Optional Arena or Underground Access

Yvonne_D, Aug 2026

Take this tour!

Get a guide! There is so much history here and if you travel all this way to see it and learn about it, spend the extra to get a guided tour. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly! Gave us such a great picture of ancient Roman life. We had direct access to the sites. Incredible tour!

From Rome to Tuscany: Discover Florence and Pisa in One Day

Caitlin_D, Jul 2026

Just Amazing

Silvia was the name of the tour guide and she was wonderful ., She was very kind and attentive and she made sure anyone who needed a taxi got one when we arrived in florence to the restaurants location and she did a good head count before leaving to the next stop each time we would board again the bus and her spanish was very good because she studied in Spain and then lived there from age 18-27 she had told me herself this when i spoke with her one on one while walking towards the location of the historic sites and her english was very clear as well . The tour was impeccable and an experience i will hopefully always remember . I would definitely use this tour company again if i am able to return to rome in the future .
