We specifically signed up for this tour because we wanted to experience the culture and hidden gems of Rome. The tour did not disappoint thanks to our amazing tour guide, Beatrice. She asked us ahead of time about our interests. And, it was very clear that she prepared and planned our tour based on our interests. We had the chance to get away from the hundreds of tourists because we had already been to all the historical sites. And, we experienced fun Roman foods, wine, markets and art. Something we would have never experienced on our own. We asked Beatrice for recommendations for the rest of our stay. And, she took the time the next day to respond back to us to give us great suggestions. Please ask for Beatrice if you want to really experience the heart of Rome.

Our tour guide was Shiva. She was so kind, funny and knowledgeable. The tour was wonderful and we learnt a lot. Would highly recommend a tour with Shiva. Her wonderful tour helped us expirence Rome in our very limited time frame. Thank you so much again. X

A custom experience that we have never had before. We filled the questionnaire almost in reverse, stating the places we had already seen and did not wish to see again. Nadia communicated often to be sure she could make a good plan for us. We saw things we didn't even know existed, enjoyed the inside of a basilica, and spent time in the Jewish Ghetto. One of our fellow travelers who tried to find a site on there own, without a guide never found it even though it was not far from our hotel. A guide is a worthwhile expense

Bea was easy to understand and provided great information and a terrific experience. We loved the walk through the local market at the end of our tour. Bea also provided a lot of additional information of other things we could see and do during our time in Rome, this was provided after our tour finished and was way above and beyond what we expected.

There is so much to see that internet searches can't reveal. We very much enjoyed our walking tour of Rome with a local guide. We filled out a questionnaire before-hand, which helped shape the tour to best fit our interests, capabilities & limitations (being an "aging couple"). Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly & helpful. She showed us things we never could have found on our own. I even "upgraded" my straw hat to a real one from a company making them since the mid 1800's! From pictures to purchases to palate, it was well worth the extra cost for a private tour. Group tours are adequate, but this was specifically tailored to our interests & capabilities.

Alex was amazing. He showed so many wonderful things and was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the art and history of Rome. The best money spent on our trip was this tour.
