Latest reviews from our guests

We had a great day with. Massimo in Rome. He contacted us in advance to see what we wanted to do, came to our hotel to pick us up, and showed us things we had walked past a million times without ever looking at them or knowing what we were seeing. Massimo showed us big sights and small, hidden treasures and the tour was everything we hoped it would be. We left Rome feeling as if we knew it much better than we did just half a day earlier!

We spent four hours with Massimo, and he showed us things we had been walking right past that had a fascinating history. We had a comprehensive tour of the city and came away feeling like we knew Rome so much better than we did when we started. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful time. He knew a lot. He was very easy to understand and modified the itinerary to fit what we wanted to see. I would highly recommend Andrea to anyone.

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!!
