What are people saying about Rome

Skip the Line Vatican, Sistine Chapel and Basilica Guided Tour

8ypqhnhyxb, Oct 2026

Great experience worth every penny

Maggie was a great tour guide with a vast of knowledge on all areas that we walked, even when some of the areas were unplanned due to how busy it was. The queue jump was well worth it given the speed of getting in compared to those queueing. We even got to take a shortcut to the Sistine chapel which looked to be closed but maggie is an employee of the Vatican City so security let us through. It was a great experience and well worth the money.

Rome Catacombs & Capuchin Crypts Group Tour with Transfers

Lisa_F, Oct 2026

Cool tour of the Capuchin Crypts & Catacombs

This tour was really good. We started in the Capuchin Crypt/Museum...the day we were there was actually the feast day of St Francis. (The Capuchin monks are a part of the Franciscan order) The lines were long, but totally worth it. After this, we got into minivans to head to the Roman Catacombs. The Catacombs are empty (the Catholic Church moved all of the remains out of the sight of tourists) but it is still deeply moving. Some of the pathways are really narrow with lower ceilings, but totally able to navigate. I highly recommend!

Pompeii, Amalfi Coast and Positano Day Trip from Rome

Debra_T, Oct 2026

Pompeii and Positano in a day

This is a very long day but it allows you to see Pompeii and Positano and not worry about any of the driving! We had a great driver named Francesco and our guide on the bus was Kler! Kler was amazing and full of so much information! She did an awesome job😊

Veronica_F, Oct 2026

My family and I enjoyed...

My family and I enjoyed our tour. Our tour guide Mario was wonderful. He was very informative and engaging and he also did his best to keep us out of a downpour when it started raining! The tour is not necessarily about ghosts, but the history behind some sites where there was creepy, criminal or evil behavior- very interesting!

Maryam was a wonderful...

Maryam was a WONDERFUL tour guide. She made our visit to the catacombs and crypts in Rome a memorable experience. Her historical knowledge, wit, and sense of humor made the tour amazing! I would 10/10 recommend this tour company and hopefully you’ll get Maryam! She was a delight!

Private Rome WOW Tour: Vatican, Colosseum, Squares, Car & Lunch

Linda_G, Oct 2026

Private Mobility Tour in Rome

Alex made our private Rome in One Day “WOW”tour an experience our family will remember for years to come! We booked a private driver and guide because my mother has mobility challenges and uses a walker. From the very beginning, Alex went above and beyond, taking care of my mother with such kindness, patience, and genuine compassion. He treated her as if she were his own family, and that meant more to us than I can put into words. Unfortunately, our vehicle was rear-ended while we were stopped at a traffic light. What could have easily derailed our entire day never seemed to faze Alex. He immediately arranged taxi pickups and drop-offs for the remainder of the tour and made sure we could continue enjoying Rome. We visited the beautiful fountains, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, St. Peter’s Basilica, and Colosseum. Even when we toured the Colosseum in pouring rain, Alex kept the experience fun and memorable. His professionalism, flexibility, knowledge, and, most importantly, his kindness made all the difference. We are so grateful we had Alex as our guide and cannot recommend him highly enough. If you’re visiting Rome, especially with someone who needs a little extra assistance, ask for Alex. You won’t regret it!

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

Ron_C, Oct 2026

Great time in tuscany

Meet up was easy and well planned. The tour bus was clean. The tour guide was very friendly and informative. Spent time in two Tuscan towns and had a wonderful lunch with wine tasting / pairing. Time flew by. It was a great day. Bring battery pack, water, and a snack for the bus.

Small Group Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill Tour

Holly_V, Sept 2026

Excellent experience!

Roberta was a fabulous guide! Very warm and welcoming and full of interesting information about the colosseum and forum. Our tour was scheduled the day both places ending up closing out of respect for a worker who had died on site. Despite the unexpected closure in the middle of our tour, Roberta was able to quickly pivot and still give us an excellent experience seeing what we could of both sites. And Crown Tours graciously refunded a portion of the cost to make up for the time we missed inside. I would certainly book with them again. Very professional and well-run.

Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel Skip-the-Line Tour

Jay_W, Sept 2026

Wonderful Vatican Tour with Amazing Guides!

We had a wonderful Vatican tour! Tamara and Deanna were both incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. They shared so much fascinating information and made everything easy to understand and appreciate. If you’re visiting Rome and planning a tour of the Vatican, I highly recommend them. A great experience and a fantastic way to see and learn about the Vatican!

Rome by Vespa: Classic Rome Tour with Pick up & Drop Off

Maureen_M, Sept 2026

Excellent! Highlight of trip

What an extraordinary experience we won’t forget!! We opted for the 6:30am tour with Marco and Andi who excelled drivers and guides. The early morning ride allowed us to see Rome before the throngs of tourists were afoot. Well worth getting up for early in the morning. Marco is an expert on Rome history. He was able to answer all our questions. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Rome by Night Walking Tour - Legends & Criminal Stories

Jacquelyn_W, Jun 2026

Great Stories, Great Guide, Great Time

We had a great time on this tour. There wasn’t as much walking as we expected, which made it very enjoyable. The stories were fascinating and really brought the history to life. Rob was an excellent tour guide, knowledgeable, engaging, and funny. We shared a lot of laughs throughout the tour and learned a lot of history of the city. Highly recommend this experience!

Full-Day: Colosseum, Vatican Museums & St Peter's Guided Tour

Judy_H, Dec 2025

FULL DAY of great touring

Great guides! I can't recall their names but both guides were extremely educational, knowledgeable, entertaining, and just a great experience overall. It was a bit challenging getting from one tour to the next, and trying to eat lunch as well, but we made it, with 10 minutes to spare.
