Rome city walk with a local - As our first visit to Rome, my wife and I decided to book a local to show us the real Rome. Our guide Alessandro was fabulous. Polite, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. He showed views and areas of Rome we would never have seen. Lunch at one of Rome’s oldest pizza ovens was a treat. Alessandro went out of his way to ensure that the rest of our stay in Rome was safe and exciting. Thankyou and highly recommended.

A Day in Rome - We had such a great time with Gerry! He was loads of fun and laughter... because we only had 8 hours in Rome, he showed us the most important tourist sites in the City Center as well as a few non touristy things along our day. He took us to a cute little bistro for lunch and we stopped at the end of the day at a cool Irish Pub. We was informative about everything with a few things that we did not know, which was awesome, but we also did not want a "tour guide" to be completely in depth about things. We wanted to have a local show us around, so we did not get lost, but also a little bit of history... Gerry provided that in spades. We enjoyed our day, even in the 40 degree heat... the island in the middle of Rome was really neat, the little bit of history of Napoleon Bonapardt…. the cool little additional theaters that we most likely would not have found. thanks Gerry!!!!!! Shay and group

Private tours with Cecilia (Rome)-City Unscripted - This recommendation is long overdue, but I just had to share with everyone how wonderful our local host Cecilia was during our visit to Rome. We were delayed with our flight from Paris to Rome (missing breakfast & lunch) and immediately Cecilia was so thoughtful as to suggest that we meet at a local trattoria that was right across from the Vatican Museum entrance, which was our starting point. As soon as we met her, I knew we were in “good hands”, it was as if she made it her personal goal to make sure we had the most wonderful and informative time during our stay in Rome. Mere words can describe how awesome it was to see all the sights of the Vatican as well as all of the sights of Rome with such a delightful person who was so full of knowledge on each place we visited. It was as if she could read our minds by showing and describing everything that we were particularly interested in. As Cecila explained the history of each place we visited, I noticed that other tourists were so impressed with what they overheard, they discreetly tried to keep up with us so they too could benefit from all of her worldly knowledge. It was like having your “best friend” arrange everything so your entire trip was absolutely perfect. She suggested wonderful lunch spots that we all enjoyed, shopping spots also and then every evening she would give us up to three different suggestions of local Italian restaurants / trattorias to choose from. Our time with Cecilia in Rome was by far the best vacation I have ever experienced in all of my life (and I am 57 years old). If you plan to go to Rome, you owe to yourself to “experience” Rome with Cecilia because you will definitely have a more enriched time then you could ever imagine. Ciao ! Robby W. & Pam W.

Trastevere walking tour - Christi was wonderful. We felt like we were visiting with a friend, or nephew (we are decades older than him but it made no difference). Medieval houses in tucked away neighborhoods, the house where Dante lived, churches with the most glorious mosaics, the best leather shop, which restaurants to try, Roman history, Etruscan history, so much to take in. He was generous with his time, humorous in his approach, and very personable. A marvelous afternoon. Highly recommend this.

While we had requested a guide for... - <p>While we had requested a guide for the forum and other areas, he was not at all knowledgable. He did show us some churches near our hotel which he knew a lot about but did not accommodate our original request when we booked the tour.</p>
