Loved our tour. One of the best tours we have ever gone on. We wound up being the only ones on the tour. We had a private tour. Our guide was amazing. We learned so much more than we ever had with anyone else. He made everything interesting and fun., we could have stayed another three more hours with him. We highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed.

Such an amazing tour! Guides were so knowledgeable and so accommodating…would recommend to families!
Highly recommend this tour to view another side of Rome. Xander was delightful and very knowledgeable. Great way of getting around in a golf buggy
Lovely golf cart ride through town with a stop at the catacombes. Xander our guide was very knowledgable and knew a lot of history about rome!
What an awesome tour today Alex was so incredibly knowledgeable and shared with us all kinds of information that I had not heard before. The catacombs were so interesting. So much history we could not be happier with the tour and driver.
My favorite tour! It was more relaxed and away from the crowds. Merle was excellent with driving and sharing information along the way.
Our tour was presented by Ms Margarita and she was more than wonderful, she was informative and she takes this job seriously, and spoke English so well. My wife and I were filled with so much history, we just enjoyed it so much. We loved the multiple stops and the useful information on other areas to visit. We were so impressed, we asked when she was doing the next tour hoping she would be available while we’re still in town. Very much worth it!
Expect a lot of information and great content from the team, I fell in love with Federico our guide was quite knowledgeable
Amazing tour. The guide was very knowledgeable, fun and enthusiastic!!
I learned a lot and interesting history.
Thank you to our amazing guide who made our trip memorable!!
Highly recommended, 6 out of 5!!!
The roads are very well travelled and a little bumpy - don't be precious, it is a part of the fun. Great learning - we loved it.
Francesco was great!! Very passionate about the history 😊 We’re able to see exactly what is advertised
What a tour! We saw areas we never would have seen on foot or one of the larger tours. Our guide, Alex was so friendly and kind. We appreciated his positive attitude and helpfulness. He accommodated questions, extra bathroom breaks, whatever was needed!
Lots of history of Early Rome some stairs and narrow spaces for those with balance issue. Overall a good tour. Would recommend for a different perspective.
The tour was fascinating, guided by the very eloquent, lively and knowledgeable Frederico. He was a great historical storyteller, and wove together the pieces really well— no small feat given the timespan! His historical examples made it real, including his memorable explanations of everything from the charioteers’ reins, to the purpose of the Baroque and the counter- reformation.
I learned a lot. Thank you Frederico.
We had such a great tour with Alex! He was so knowledgeable and went out of his way to show us some hidden gems in Rome. The catacombs were extraordinary!
Antonella was a great guide. We had a blast zipping around in the golf cart and learning about all the sites along the way. Catacombs is a must see when visiting Rome
Had an amazing day travelling around on the golf cart we had Nick as our driver he was so nice and informative you could ask him anything and he knew the answer it was lovely to see the catacombs and hear the history about them I’d highly recommend doing this if you have a spare day
Great tour and very informative. Our guide was fantastic and took lots of time explaining all the sites. Would book again.
We had an amazing time with our guide Federico! He was so knowledgeable, passionate and shared his extensive knowledge of the history of the catacombs, Appian Way and more…
We would highly recommend this tour with Federico🧡 Best guide ever!
Thank you
Julie and Gavin
Excellent tour. Got to see ruins I never even knew about. The guide was so informative and a joy to listen to.
What an amazing, informational, and fun excursion! Our guide Federico was wonderful! As we were traveling, he shared his wealth of knowledge. We learned so much on the three hour tour. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is traveling to Rome for the first time or really anytime. We did take this tour on our first day. Seeing the catacombs and appian way was fascinating. There is so much history and interesting facts to learn. Federico recommended additional places to explore as well and shared some great tips on how to see Rome. If I could give him more stars, I would.
This tour was really cool. Our guide Frederico was FANTASTIC and really passionate and knowledgeable about Rome's history. The tour was a great way to get out of the busier parts of Rome and see the Catacombs and parts of the Appian Way.
This was such a great tour. It was fun to ride in the golf carts and our tour guide Sicily knew so many fascinating facts about Rome and Christian history there. We were a family of 7 with kids ranging 8-16 years old. They really liked the catacombs
Guide Federico was great! Very personable and wanted to make sure you had a great time in the tour. Very knowledgeable with nice history of the city and the history on the catacombs
This was a very informative and welcoming tour. I appreciated the detail to the information given during the golf cart tour. The head sets worked great and they ensured we could hear what was being said. Both tour guides were respectful and went above and beyond to ensure we had an excellent tour! Thank you!
We were genuinely surprised at how great this tour was. Booked it for our last day in Rome having done all the major sites already and didn’t know what to expect. It was a great way to see a different side of the city without the crushing crowds. The guide himself was what made it. So knowledgeable and energetic - he really engaged the group in the history of the place, especially the kids. 100% recommend.
It was a great tour . Especially the catacombs . It was my first visit and it was beyond my expectations.
Fantastic guide. Incredibly friendly and helpful. Nice to the children and knowledgeable for the area get to see a different side of Rome.
This is my second time on this tour; I took my mother last year, and my teenaged son this year. Both tours were quite good, although we had different guides who took different approaches.
My only warning is that the catacombs are not for the faint of heart. They are an important aspect of early Christianity and Roman history, and there are no visible bodies. But, it is the type of place that many might find uncomfortable.
Full of information and great attitude!!! Our guide was very personal!! A must do for everyone!!!!!!
Our guide Nick was great, very knowledgeable, informative and friendly. We all thought the tour was good value and would recommend
