Andrea was very kind and knowledgeable of this beautiful city. He brought us to all the main sites and was a wealth of information.
The van was extremely comfortable. Andrea made it easy and convenient for pick up and drop off at our hotel.
We highly recommend this tour.

What a great way to see so many of Rome’s most beautiful spots lit up and looking amazing. Peter was an amazing guide and driver. Born and raised in Rome, he has so much knowledge to share and knows his way around the city. He was flexible with the itinerary and offered so many insights. After a very warm day, it was nice to get in the comfortable and air conditioned van for our private tour. This may be our highlight of Rome. Highly recommend! Worth every euro!

If you're considering the Rome After Dark tour, stop thinking about it and book it — especially if you're lucky enough to get Peter as your driver and guide!
Peter was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about sharing the history, culture, and hidden treasures of Rome. This wasn't a cookie-cutter tour where you're rushed from landmark to landmark. Peter encouraged us to customize the evening and tailored the experience to our interests, making it feel like we were exploring Rome with a local friend.
One of the highlights was visiting several hidden gems and lesser-known locations that most tourists would never discover on their own. These secret spots not only gave us a different perspective of Rome but also provided some of the most incredible photo opportunities of our entire trip.
My recommendation? Book the 7:00 p.m. tour. The golden-hour light transitioning into sunset and then evening illumination over the city was absolutely magical. The photos we captured during that time are some of our favorites from Rome.
What impressed us most was how much we learned along the way. Peter shared fascinating history, local stories, and cultural insights that brought the city to life. You could tell he genuinely loves Rome and enjoys helping visitors experience it beyond the typical tourist attractions.
To top off an already perfect evening, Peter thoughtfully dropped us off near the Spanish Steps at the conclusion of the tour, allowing us to continue our evening with tapas, cocktails, and people-watching in one of Rome's most beautiful areas.
This tour was one of the highlights of our entire Rome vacation. If you want stunning views, incredible photos, insider knowledge, hidden gems, and an unforgettable evening in the Eternal City, book this tour! You won't regret it.
Grazie, Peter, for an amazing night in Rome!

This trip was very informative and we saw what we had hoped to see. We also saw some hidden treasures or fountains in Rome that we would not have seen had we tried to do this on our own. Peter was so much fun and a wealth of knowledge.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Rome After Dark tour. Our driver, Peter, did a wonderful job driving us and sharing a wealth of information about the sights around the city, including both historical and cultural background as well as relating them to modern life in Rome. He was flexible, ensuring we saw the specific things we were interested in, as well as taking us to several unique and beautiful landmarks we wouldn't have otherwise seen on this trip. Grazie, Peter!

Peter our guide was a local that knew the areas and history of Rome. Very personable. Arrived early at our hotel for pick up. Beautiful clean Mercedes vehicle for the tour. Took us to many areas, the Pantheon, the large fountain, the Vatican, the Venice area, the Trevi Fountain, the Colleseum and other sites. Explained the history of the city thru the ages.
Highly recommend this tour and Peter as your guide.

A beautiful time with Andrea exploring Rime at night. He was so informative- lots of little stories for each place and a fantastic photographer. I would say this is a must do during your visit. Ask for Andrea- he is wonderful

We did several Viator tours while in Rome, but this was our favorite. Our guide, Stefano, texted the day before to confirm the pick-up. He picked us up at our hotel on time and provided us with a magical experience. The vehicle was extremely nice and comfortable. He took us to many of the most popular sights, parked where we could get the best photos, and got out with us to provide history and information while we took photos. At night, the city was even more beautiful; the Colosseum. Trevi Fountain and Pantheon lit up at night are spectacular. Stefano was a wonderful guide. Highly recommend this tour!

We toured in a Mercedes SUV with Beatrice, who happened to be a trained archeologist. She was knowledgeable and was able to tease fact from fable at all the sites we visited. She was passionate about Rome. We enjoyed our tour greatly and would travel with Beatrice again on a tour in Rome.
