Fantastic Guide and Tour! - Our guide, Angela, was fantastic. She brought the history of Ancient Rome to life in this great walking tour. She is warm and friendly with a wealth of knowledge that she imparts with great enthusiasm and enthralling stories. My wife and I have traveled all over the world and have taken many private tours so that we have a more personal experience and can ask any and all questions we might have.. Angela and this tour rank with the best we have taken. You might pay a little more for this private tour than a group tour, but it is well worth it.

Delightful tour through all the highlights in Rome - Loved our private tour with Angela… she made our last day in Rome magical. We saw and were able to do so much because she knows all the ins and outs, made all the reservations we needed, took us to all the gelato spots we requested and so much more. She was so personable & such a delight to tour Rome with. I HIGHLY recommend this tour company!

First Rate Tour for our First Day in Rome - James was great from start to finish. He personalized our tour taking into account my husband’s disability and my bad knee as we well as my passion for history (and my love of cats 😀). We had wonderful conversations throughout the tour and I learned a great deal. Communication was excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed our beautiful, memorable first day in Rome.
