William_B, Mar 2026
As a Rome native, Alex is well suited to showcase his hometown - sharing his knowledge about these terrific hidden gems, and navigating Rome's traffic perfectly. Bravo!

A wonderful, informative few hours. Worth every penny

NigelM_C, Jun 2025
We had a wonderful few hours with our lady guide ( I am sorry I have lost her card to give you her name ) She was humorous, colourful and so informative. We would recommend our experience with her to anybody

Excellent

Keith_S, Mar 2025
The Fiat 500 tour was excellent, even my teenage boys really enjoyed it, it was great. It was a real pleasure and we saw sites we would not of known of but were well worth visiting.

Put it on your "To do" list

Francesco was amazing. He had so such to tell us and was very funny. It was perfect would do it again. Got to see a lot and did not feel exhausted.

If I could give it 10 stars I would....

Alison_G, Oct 2024
This trip was absolutely the best thing we did in our 5 days in Rome! It was fun, informative, and a great way to see a lot of the city that we definitely would not have seen otherwise. In a city that at times seems taken over by tour groups, this felt like a glorious step out of just being another tourist and into truly experiencing the city.

A must do in Rome

MaryMargaret_D, Oct 2024
This was the best tour! We had so much fun with Alexis - he is so knowledgeable about Rome’s history and took the time to ask questions for the kinds of things we were interested in seeing and customized the tour for us. Highly recommend!

Unique Rome Experience

Megan_G, Sep 2024
Unique way to see Rome and Alex was great however the itinerary is misleading for example it says it stops at the Colosseum for 20 mins and we didn’t. Some of the stops we did spend a length of time at were a bit disappointing. Had a fun 3 hours but suggest the itinerary be clearer given it was an expensive tour.

Such a fun day

Sally_Q, Sep 2024
This was such a fun experience. Thanks to Alex for taking us safely around the sites of Rome. We learnt so much about areas we hadn’t been to. Would highly recommend doing this tour

Underwhelming

Anthony_M, Aug 2024
Where to start; 1/ The add said they will pick up up at hotel. Then they tell u that they can’t. You have to travel to them. 2/ Our driver / tour guide could not speak English and the radio he had did not work most of the trip 3/ The main tour guide had a bad attitude 4/ They mostly drive around back streets and when they do go past an attraction it is at a distance

Truly a treat to bop...

Sean_B, Jan 2024
Truly a treat to bop around town in a unique piece of history, while visiting unique history. The guides were outstanding and very knowledgeable. Turned out to be a great way to cover a lot of ground while learning a lot.

Unforgettable experience I recommend to everyone!

mackenzie_j, Oct 2023
This tour was more amazing and wonderful then I expected. I booked solo as a birthday treat for myself and it was the best birthday present 😁 Alexis is a wonderful driver, funny, energetic and had wonderful knowledge of the places we were visiting and other sites along the drive. I highly recommend people book this for an unforgettable experience. They even let me book the pink fiat which made my birthday even more special.

A fun way to see Rome

Tanya_S, Aug 2023
We had a great time on our tour. Our tour guide Max was really knowledgeable and heaps of fun. Would definitely recommend to others.

Awesome Tour to See Hidden Gems in Rome!

Debra_H, Jul 2023
Our driver was awesome! He showed us some spectacular sites we had never seen before. Circus Maximus, the equivalent to the Beverly Hills area, Roman baths, and a very cool restaurant with natural air conditioning from broken pottery. Had a thirst quenching Italian soda with orange flavor. He went above and beyond by stopping off and helping us buy soccer shirts for our son who couldn’t travel with us due to the latest Passport rules. Kudos to his outstanding service!

I saw Rome the way my parents did in their old car!

rosanna_s, May 2023
This was a blast! Alex was a great driver, really nice personality and enthusiastic an knowledgeable to show us around in the 500. We went to places we hadn’t been before which was wonderful and he took nice pictures for us too! I recommend this experience if you are a smaller build person and can get in and out of this little car, this is a memorable and fun experience.

Great memories

Twpip, May 2023
Michael our team leader was excellent and really made the experience special. The 3 hour tour flew by and we saw things we would never of seen on a standard tour.

Fiatastic experience!!

Inge_v, May 2023
It is the most authentic way to see Rome!! Such a nice experience driving through the big lanes and piazzas like Piazza Venezia and small streets in Trastevere (among other super nice more hidden gems) with insider explanations and tips from the local guides (ours was Marco).

A Roman’s View of Rome!

StephanieFurfaro, Apr 2023
What an amazing experience, like no other in Rome. Our guide Alexi, a lifelong Roman, took us to all the hidden gems of Rome and shared history not found in usual tours. He created a truly authentic experience we will always remember. The Fiat 500 was fantastic way to see the Eternal City!

Day in Rome

Debra_V, Apr 2023
Mike was fun and engaging! Showed us hidden secrets.. Beautiful day and nice to see the city! Great tour! Look forward to coming back!

Amazing Tour

Charles_Z, Nov 2022
This tour is Amazing! Mike is excellent, knowledgeable tour guide with a vast experience on Rome History and Architecture! He speaks very well fluent English, spanish and of course Italian. Not your usual tour. Takes you to beautiful hidden gems. It’s a must do!

Insanely exciting !

Scott_D, Nov 2022
We had the BEST time with Alex in that little vehicle that caught everyone’s eyes !! Not only did we get to see some great sights in Rome but we, also, had a fantastic time with Alex as he narrated the drive for us. Just driving around the city in his classic Fiat drew eyes and was an adventure in and of itself as he navigating sharing the roads. We consider this the best of all our experiences on our first trip to Rome… we knew that Alex set the bar really high.

Expensive but fun

GatorSF, Jul 2022
This tour is pricey, but they made it fun. I did see parts of Rome I'd never seen on previous visits, which was great.

Best Tour of Rome!

g6d7h5pztv, Jun 2022
What a wonderful tour ! We saw things we would never have seen on in a large group. Driving down narrow, cobblestone roads was an experience to remember. We learned a lot, had fun and loved every minute. Even the teenager had a great time!

Fantastic tour definitely recommend

Caroline_H, May 2022
Fabulous tour! I done my tour at 7pm and it was a great and fun way to see the city. Alexis was knowledgeable and passionate about the city. Made sure I was well looked after.

Great way to spend a few hours - especially if you want to see a few new things!

amy_s, Aug 2021
Stephanie! She was so kind, informative, efficient and took some great pictures of us! Loved the history from someone who was well informed - and grew up in Rome!

The highlight of our short stay in Roma!

Three of us and Emmanuelle in a vintage red Fiat - so much fun!! Emmanuelle was an awesome tour guide with plenty of info to share and fun places to go to away from the crazy tourist crowds. We learned so much and had a blast! Thank you Emmanuelle!

Jacqueline L, Jul 2016
We were picked up in the cutest red Fiat by Giorgio. He was a lovely guy who took us to sights that we hadn't seen. He was very informative and we learnt a lot of Roman history. We would highly recommend this tour and make sure you ask for Giorgio to be your guide. Jacki and Fay
