Clara was the best! Her knowledge was engaging and I loved learning about interesting and important pieces of Roman past. As a first timer to Italy this was one of my favorite tours we took. I love learning about Roman past that isn’t well known and Clara’s details made this tour a 10/10! Take this tour!

An interesting evening of stories about the brutal history of the city

Darren_E, Apr 2024
Elvira our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and a good host. The tour was very interesting and a nice way to see some areas of the city that you might not otherwise see. The tour was full of stories of crimes and the brutal history of the city with a few ghost thrown in. Come expecting an entertaining tour with some great stories, but don’t expect to see any ghosts!

Excellent and fun

Really interesting

Sheridan_M, Feb 2024
Bryan shared really interesting and horrible tales - it's no wonder there are so many ghosts in Rome!. We all used the diviner and I think we did connect to the spirit world. Bryan was a font of information and I now know why The Vatican is a city state. The meeting point was easy to find and it was a great way to spend an evening touring Rome.

Nice experience although I'm Roman

silvia_m, Feb 2024
We are from Rome, and did this experience for our Kids. I was surprised, we really enjoyed. Bryan has bene a great guide, you can see he loves his work and knows much about our history!!!
