Hi to everyone, I’m Marica, a roman girl very affectionate to her city and to Italian food (not only of course). Before becoming a professional tour guide I was studying East Asian culture and language so I’m in love with Japanese and Chinese cultures. Now, considering my curiosity for other cultures and my love for my country, I decided to show the eternal city around to everyone who wants to enjoy Rome as only a local would do. Going to the right places for food, enjoying secret spots, learning about Italian culture, and in particular about fun facts linked to the city, are my specialties.

I can’t say enough good things about Marica. Her knowledge of Rome was amazing. I learned so much from her. Marica was very accommodating to change the plan she had. I had a wonderful time with her and a delicious lunch!!

Our guide Marica navigated us through the maze of streets in Trastevere and brought to life all the charm. She tailored the trip to our wants and desires. Three hours flew by
