A really fantastic introduction to Rome. Thorough, comprehensive: we saw the ‘big ticket’ items like trevi fountain, spanish steps, pantheon, borghese gardens etc and also a number of smaller, lesser known sights. Our guide, Chiara, was incredible. Friendly, engaging, very knowledgeable.

Amazing experience with our tour guide Manula. She was so helpful, kind, professional and full of passion about Rome. I Highly recommend this trip for families.

Was a great way to get an overview of the inner city of Rome and learn a bit about Roman history to put your trip in context.

Francesca was an incredible host on our tour. This is a must do! Seeing all the sights illuminated was spectacular!!!

Benny is a great tour guide.very insightful and informative and keeps the tour interesting.
