Daniele was a wonderful guide! He knew exactly where to go and when, and did his best to ensure an amazing experience. We saw all the spots we wanted, and he even recommended the best pizza and gelato. He handed us off at the Vatican to Anna Maria, who was superb and explained everything we saw from the e perspectives of art and history. Without them, our brief time in Rome would not have been enjoyable! Highly recommended.

This was well worth the investment to see the key highlights of Rome in a comfortable and efficient manner. Our driver, Manuel, was fantastic - safe driver and fun, engaging personality. We were able to see the Coliseum, Trevi Fountain, Vatican Museum and St Peter’s Basilica, along with several highlights from the car while riding through the city. Highly recommend this experience!!

Daniela was and an excellent driver and guide. On time picking us up at the port in a beautiful SUV/van taking us to the Vatican and Colosseum guiding us through some of Rome sights stopping for a coffee and grabbing a delicious sandwich for lunch. Knowledgeable and great informational conversation. Martina guided us through the Vatican and Sistine Chapel with abundant knowledge. Both were very professional and relaxed helping us to enjoy the tour. Bypassing the long lines and having the privacy of one guide to the four of us was superb. You will not be disappointed booking the private tour!

Andre was awesome, picked us up from cruise terminal, showed us all the sites including extras.
Only issue was 10 mins before we were supposed to start our guided tour of Vatican museum, Sistine chapel and St Peters basilica he informed us that our guide was sick and no one else was available.
We then had to navigate it by ourselves, kind of defeats the purpose of paying for a guided tour, would assume the company had a back up plan.
Also the tickets he gave us to skip the line at the basilica didn't work so we had to contact him and then wait for him to come and sort out

My wife and I were on a cruise in the Mediterranean and only had a single day in Rome. We decided to book a private tour that included ancient Rome and the Vatican. Our driver, Antonio, met us at our ship and drove the 90 minutes from the cruise port of Civitavecchia into Rome. We spent the morning touring the sights of ancient Rome including: the Colosseum, the Forum; Aurelian Wall; Circus Maximus and Capitoline Hill. We also had time to visit the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain before meeting Mateo our licensed tour guide for an afternoon tour ot St. Peter's Basilica, Sistine Chapel; and the Vatican Museums. Both Antonio and Mateo were outstanding and informative. I know its impossible to see Rome in a day, but this is as close as you can come to it.
