The driver drove too fast and wouldn’t slow down . We requested him to slow down several times . There was a family of 6. Including chikdren
I would highly recommend this tour!! We only had one day in Rome and our driver Ahmed made sure we got to see everything. He would drop us off just steps away from the different sights and we would meet back up with him when we were done. It was extremely hot when we were there, so the convenience of this tour was amazing. Ahmed also picked us up from the cruise and dropped us off at our Airbnb after which was great. Overall, the value of this experience was definitely worth it!! Highly recommended!!

Thank you for the positive review. We’re glad to know that you enjoyed the tour. Hope to see you again!
This is great if you have little kids or infants and do not want to be stuck taking local transit. The driver took us right up to the monuments and was great to have an a/c vehicle during the summer. The route was dependent on what we wanted to see so we had plenty of time at each location.

This was the perfect taste of Rome experience. We are a family of 4 with 2 10yr old boys. Ahmed was our driver/tour guide. He picked us up from the cruise pier and drove to Rome city center. He was very accommodating. Made multiple stops for things we wanted like snacks and shopping. Each stop was just enough time to get pictures, a brief history and explore on our own. Rome is so hot in the summer, it was nice having an air conditioned car waiting for us. If you only have one day in Rome, I highly recommend. Thank you Ahmed!

Ahmed was terrific. He showed us everything on our list. We would recommend him to anyone wanting to see Rome on their own. Great day!

We had an excellent tour in Rome, and our guide Fabio made the experience truly memorable. His knowledge of the city's history, culture, and landmarks was outstanding, and he shared everything in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand.

Nino was an amazing driver and knew the streets of Rome like the back of his hand.
After an exhausting day of seeing EVERYTHING in one day he promised the best pizza in Rome and it did not disappoint.

Everything about this experience was for our comfort. Pick up from the ship's pier was easy. The van was roomy enough to accommodate 6 of us comfortably along with all our luggage.
We pre-paid for skip the line tickets both at the Coliseum and the Vatican museum. I highly recommend doing this.
Our driver, Ahmed, was amazing! He stopped at many places, offered to let us get out to take pictures. He was caring, patient and a very skilled driver.

If you are looking for a private tour of Rome, totally customizable with a wonderful and exceptionally well informed host… this is the Tour. Thank you Assem… thank you for showing us more of Rome than we could ever have seen on a ship tour. Thank you for a perfect, low stress, high value and extremely educational day.👍

Thanks for the positive review, hope to see you again.
Rome is an absolutely beautiful city. We loved it!
This was a totally private tour. Our guide, Mohammed, was simply wonderful! He coordinated a very busy schedule so that we could see everything possible in Rome in only 8-9 hours. We saw St Peter’s Square, the Vatican and Sistine Chapel (inside for 2 hours), Rome’s first Christian church, the Coliseum (inside for 1 hour), Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Caesar’s Palace and Circus Maximus, Piazza Navona, and so many other sites. Mohammed was so considerate, he brought us cappuccinos while we waited in the Vatican line. He also handed us coins for the fountain because we left our bags in the vehicle. He marched us straight up to the fountain railing so that we could get photos. We can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed the information he provided and his attentiveness to insuring we saw as much of Rome as possible. He was the best guide we could have asked for. We would definitely ask for him again the next time we’re in Rome.

Thank you Debora for the great review, hope to see you again.
Mohamed was an incredibly knowledgeable tour guide, and an even better human being. My wife gets terrible motion sickness and he was patient and kind with us throughout our tour. It felt like we saw everything in Rome and we only had one day to do it. We were traveling with younger kids and he also was very generous with them- and made them feel special. I highly recommend Mohamed to anybody seeking to do a day trip.

Thanks a lot David for your great feedback, we're glad to know that your family had a good time with Mohamed and we hope to see you again soon.
There is a lot of walking around Rome. Having a private tour helps you get around with less walking. Our private tour guide was excellent. I would recommend a private tour guide and request Ahmed

Thank you Janice for your great review, glad that you liked the tour!
Naser was great! He took us to all the places on our to do list. He was very attentive to all our needs during our trip to Rome. He even made lunch reservations for us while we were visiting the Vatican and got us back to the boat in plenty of time. Highly recommend!
Amazing way to see Rome. Our guide, Alan, was very knowledgeable and was able to take us to all of the sights we wanted to see. He also took us to an amazing restaurant for lunch. Loved it!
