Pier F. was an amazing tour guide yesterday. I highly recommend this tour. Great sites and amazing information. Thank you!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Awesome to hear! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Pier F. loves bringing history and the sites to life, and we're so glad you enjoyed every bit of it. We look forward to seeing you again next time you're looking for an amazing tour!

This was a great tour!! Seeing the sights at night, I highly recommend! St. Peter’s Square & seeing the Vatican outside at night was beautiful.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you so much for this beautiful review! Rome truly transforms after sunset, and there is something incredibly magical about seeing St. Peter’s Square and the Vatican glowing against the night sky. We are so glad you got to experience that special ambiance with us. We hope the memory of that view stays with you for a long time

Must do when in Rome. Matte was a great guide who was very insightful and kept the tour entertaining. He also taught us how to properly drink from the fountain so we didn’t look like a dog. We had an amazing time. The sights lite up at night is definitely a different vibe and should not be missed.

This was a highlight of our time in Rome and our whole trip! Eva and Andrea were fabulous drivers and were FUN! They shared great information about Rome and stopped for drinks and Gelato! Can't think of a better way to see Rome! Would definitely do again!

Our tour guide Pier was a very knowledgeable and thoughtful tour guide who made our nighttime adventure through Rome fabulous! The city is so beautiful under the lights and the history we learned made it even more fun. It was a great way to spend our evening!!

Amazing way to see Rome! Our driver Valentina instantly felt like family and her rich knowledge of the city was helpful. She knew the perfect places to go to and catered our tour for us.
Kim_M, Jun 2026
Great way to see Rome and all the amazing sights while resting your feet and getting a cool breeze. Definitely a must-do!
Patricia_G, May 2026
What a great experience! Our guide, Edoardo, was born and raised in Rome so he knows the city and its history. He was an excellent guide!
Some of the stops were still busy, like the Trevi Fountain and Colosseum but it was still nice to see it at night with less people and cooler weather. Since it was just me and my husband on the tour, we made a special stop to St. Peter’s Square which was a highlight for us. Seeing St Peter’s Basilica at night was magical!
We had such an amazing time and would highly recommend this tour!

We were picked up directly from our hotel by Maria, she showed us everything we wanted to see in Rome. She went out of her way to describe the history and interesting facts of everywhere she took us, it was a night we will always remember. Thank you Maria
Julie_S, May 2026
We spent a lot of money and time getting to our meeting location and the tour guide never showed up. We waited nearly an hour and spoke with Viator twice and neither us or them were able to reach the tour company. Very disappointed and hopeful we will get our money refunded.
Paula_R, May 2026
This was the most fun excursion. The operators were great a lot of fun took pictures and had a lot of information about the sites we saw.
Danielle_V, May 2026
We had a great time with Giorgio. He was on time and very fun. He knew this city well. He was very sweet and accommodated us considering it was raining pretty hard. He was very nice. We had a very good time.!!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for the fantastic feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Giorgio took such good care of you despite the rain and that you had a great time exploring the city with him. Your kind words mean a lot to us.
Cindy_D, May 2026
What a wonderful tour. Matteo was an excellent tour guide and share so much history with us. I would highly recommend this tour and Matteo. To see the city at night was amazing.
Megan_C, Apr 2026
We had an amazing tour with Virginia! We’d been to the city a few times so she customized our trip so we’d see new sites. Highly recommend the night tour as it’s far less crowded. We went at 9:30pm which was perfect. She picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and it was just the two of us. I highly recommend the tour and be sure to ask for Virginia!!
Kelli_U, Mar 2026
Mario was absolutely amazing, very knowledgeable and friendly. Would highly recommend this tour overall.
Susan_H, Feb 2026
Nicola was fabulous. He was a wealth of information and he made the tour incredibly fun and also catered to what we were interested in seeing I highly recommend!!! He gave us time for photos at the Colosseum, the pantheon and at the Trevi fountain. Perfect tour for a single person or family.
Ailsa_H, Feb 2026
Our guide, Eva, was great, very knowledgable and she also made it relaxed and fun. I would recommend.
Julianne_K, Jan 2026
Oh how I wish everyone could have the evening we had! This was truly the highlight of our entire Rome trip - our guide, Mario (of the famous Mario Cart 😉) was a blend of humor and knowledge that made for a fun and enlightening night. Not only did we learn so much about the history of Rome, we learned insider details about growing up locally. Make sure to brush up on some history - Mario will act as a trivia host throughout to keep you on your toes. But don’t stress, you’ll be rewarded with some of the best kept Roman treats in the city. You’ll see iconic sights, get some amazing photos, and leave with a greater passion for ancient times. Truly cannot recommend this tour enough.
Harida_S, Jan 2026
An amazing and unforgettable night tour around the city, zooming on main roads and cobblestone alleyways with Mario. Excellent guide and historian but definitely not boring. The stopovers for cappuccino and gelatos was a highlight for us. If you’re reading this, thank you, Mario, for an unforgettable interesting first night in Rome!!
Laura_B, Dec 2025
Was very good experience. Mr. Mario provided good information. Experience was interesting due to Mr. Marios' love for history. Thanks to Gallo Tour!

Wow, this was absolutely incredible experience? We had literally gotten into Rome one hour before our time so we were nervous. We were gonna miss it. This was our first night in Rome and we had the best driver / tour guide 🔥 Maximus knows everything about Rome and took us to all of the usual spots and to places we never heard of. So much history here. It was a really cold night smd I was so happy that he had blankets for us we were able to get off to get pictures. It’s truly the best way to start the trip. We knew so much by the time we explored on our own.
Dominic_B, Oct 2025
It’s a perfect way to see the city at night without all the crowds, our guid was amazing and very informative
Lisa_A, Oct 2025
My guide was very knowledgeable about Rome’s history. He was an artful storyteller making every stop magical.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you, Lisa! ✨
We’re so glad you enjoyed the magic of Rome by night and that your guide made the city’s stories come alive. It’s a truly special time to explore Rome under the lights. Hope to welcome you back for another ride soon! 🛺💫

This was an excellent tour to get our bearings in the Eternal City! Filippo was our driver and he was awesome, he pointed out places of interest during the drive, and showed us his favorite church outside of the more touristy ones which was absolutely stunning. He also took us to the Malta Keyhole and explained the history behind it, which we asked for outside of the list of places listed. We weren’t rushed at all and Filippo was a great guide. We loved this tour and had a fantastic time, would absolutely recommend on your first night in Rome to get acquainted with the city!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you, Valerie! 🌟 We’re so happy to hear how much you enjoyed exploring with Filippo. His passion for sharing both the famous sights and hidden gems — like that special church and the Malta Keyhole — really makes the experience unique. We love that you felt unhurried and well taken care of. What a wonderful way to start your time in Rome!
Chantelle_S, Sep 2025
Nicola was amazing! If I could give him ten stars I would! We done the night time tour in Rome and he told us all about the history of everywhere we went with fascinating stories! As two non history people he kept us interested for the full two hours not just with the views but with his dialogue! You can tell he loves his city! I would request him again in a heart beat what an amazing first night it was for us in Rome Spent with Nicola
Sherri_S, Sep 2025
I think they should have a list of the exact places they’d like to see at night prepared before tour so nothing is missed or forgotten ! I loved it! I recc it!
Nicole_D, Sep 2025
I have visited Rome approximately 15 times, and I thought I had seen it all. It wasn’t until this past week when we took a tour with our incredible guide Nicola, that I realized how much more there was to see and learn.
To start, the tour included being picked up directly at our hotel, (make sure you check with them as this service does depend on where your hotel is located), but it was convenient from the very beginning. Our guide Nicola picked us up, spoke perfect English, was friendly, and so engaging! He told us exactly what we would do, where we would go and what we would see. We started at the Colosseum from a beautiful, picturesque location, and he gave us a wonderful history of the building, and many details we never knew.
From there, we went to Circus Maximus, drank water from a fountain fed by an ancient aqueduct. We then went to one of most incredible spots I never knew about, and we went up to Aventino hill where I was stunned by the beauty at the Headquarters of the Knights of Malta, where we looked through the keyhole to the perfectly framed out view of the dome of St Peters. This location in one of Rome’s most beautiful neighborhoods was something I never knew about, and something I definitely think was worth seeing.
Nicola made sure to drive us past many historical locations, pulling over to describe where we were, and why they were significant to the history of Rome. His knowledge was unmatched and verified by my constant Google searching throughout the ride. (Side note, when we started, Nicola asked if there was anything in particular we wanted to see, and he could have tailored the tour a bit to your liking.)
We also made stops at the Pantheon, one of my favorite buildings in the world, Piazza Navona, and the Trevi Fountain. At each location, he provided a full description of what to look for, where to find it, and the best place to get pictures. While the Police don’t always let him leave the golf cart unattended, there was only one occasion when he could not walk with us, but each stop, he was our guide, our security, our photographer, and he cleared a path so that our pictures were just us, no one else lurking in the background or walking in front of us!
What may not be a highlight for all, but when you have a 9 year old with you it certainly is, we stopped for one of the best gelatos I’ve ever had. To make it even better for my 9 year old nephew was that he was able to get two because he simply could not settle on just 2 flavors, he needed 3!
The entire time we were together, Nicola never stopped talking, engaging, informing or answering our questions. When our tour ended back at our hotel where he dropped us off, I actually felt like I spent 3+ hours with a close friend, not a tour guide.
The only thing that could have made the night better was if the tour went longer. If Nicola is any representation of the company and the product they provide, I imagine each guide is wonderful, but I think you’ll be the luckiest if you get him for yours! I can’t wait to return to Rome with a friend who has never been so I can do it all over again!

Our guide Ludo was excellent. Well worth it to see the city at night, learn about its history, and get some of the best gelato we had in Italy.
Donald_W, Aug 2025
The golf cart never showed up for the tour. Please provide a refund!!! I was disappointed that no one contacted me

We saw so many beautiful pieces of architecture and art, while in Rome. We never would have been able to fit everything in without the help of this tour. Eva was knowledgeable, friendly, funny and accommodating, making sure that every item on our list was checked off.
