We were suppose to use this tour on 4/1 for a family of 4. We booked 3 tours with Viator. Two tours were AMAZING. One was disappointingly not. I called to try to get our tour moved to another day as our plane was delayed. We could make the tour but it was a stretch and giving it was pouring down rain…how could you do a walking tour comfortably? The request to move the date was denied. So I got all of us panchos and met at the designated place 15 minutes before our tour was to start. We were the only group there. Our tour was 7pm. The time came and went. I called repeatedly using the Same number I had and no one picked up. We finally left at 7:15. I filed a complaint with Viator and the operations department for the tour denied my request for a refund for a tour I didn’t have a chance to go on!!! I was really looking forward to this tour! This instance was truly disappointing. I would recommend seeking a different option if you’re dead set on going on a similar tour. Safe travels!!

Absolutely amazing tour with Justin. So knowledgeable and friendly, really brought the city to life for us. We would recommend this tour to anyone - after our first free tour, we went ahead and booked two more. The night tour of the forum was an especially amazing experience. Thank you Justin!

The best part of my trip to rome was Rome's ultimate tours! I started the day with the morning tour and immediately booked the night tour for that same day- that is how good it was. Lucio guided both of the tours and he was absolutely incredible, such a pro. Thank you so much

My friends and I got the pleasure of meeting Dimitri. The tour was unforgettable and very exclusive. We really enjoyed the tour! He even showed us places most people wouldn’t even consider going to! We didn’t get the chance to do a bike tour he also offers. Because the team was very welcoming we’re definitely doing the bike tour with them next year!!!

This tour was excellent, and our tour guide Lucio was incredibly knowledgeable! The temperature was perfect and the sites lit up at night were spectacular. It really is a must-do when you're in Rome!

Amazing route throughout some of Rome’s most important sites. Our guide Lucho (awesome English, Spanish and Italian) was nice and provided tons of information. We truly enjoyed it and definitely recommend it. Cherry on top was watching together a La Roma futbol match after the game at a local pub. Super recommended.

We did the Rome’s Ultimate free walking tour, and did the Night Walk the same day. The Night Walk really complemented the day tour, focusing on many of monuments, piazzas and significant parts of the city we would’ve otherwise missed. Lucio was a wealth of knowledge and was approachable and eager to answer any questions we had Definitely recommend this tour!

We me mistakenly showed up a day ahead of our tour schedule & Lucio went out of his way to accommodate us! He gave back to back tours and his enthusiasm never waned even in +39 degree heat! He was fun & friendly & such a wealth of information. A highlight of our trip we will never forget 🤩🇮🇹🕺🏿✨👏🙏 thank you !!

The Night Walking tour in Rome with Dimitri was a highlight of our 3 week tour in Europe. We embarked on this tour on our first night in Rome, and our experience was above and beyond our expectations. Our guide Dimitri was a wealth of information, attentive, kind, intellectual person with whom we toured the most majestic Rome sites and his commentaries illuminated so many interesting historical, architectural, political facts about Rome and Italy for us! I doubt we'd get this kind of experience anywhere else. We visited Roman monuments, toured a few amazing churches that were not part of the original tour, but that happened to be open where we were on the tour ( again, Dimitri's commentaries made so much difference in understanding what art and religious treasures we were seeing!), admired the Presidential Palace that used to be a Papal residence, and the Piazza Campdoglio designed by Michelangelo... you name it. At the end of the tour ( that lasted way longer the scheduled tour time, as we were having so many questions about the sites and events we were learning about), we ended our night walk with a glass of a great wine graciously offered to us by Dimitri. Thank you so much for your attention, kindness, professionalism! We will definitely be back and take this tour again when in Rome!

Excellent sunset/early evening walking tour in the centre of Rome. Our guide, Dimitri, was a great host and really knows his history. Rome’s Ultimate tours (we also took their Free Walking Tour - 5⭐️) are all about the history and development of Rome through the ages, rather than just a list of famous sites for photo ops. Walking through centuries of history, Dimitri explained the way the city had developed through the rise and fall of the Republic, the Empire, the Papal state, the middle ages, the 1000 years when nothing happened 🤣, through to the unification of the peninsula and the creation of Italy. A brilliant tour to see some amazing sites without the massive crowds around, there were times when we had whole parts of the city to ourselves. I also have a much better appreciation of the different architectural styles around Rome (Classical, eclecticism, medieval, Baroque, Rococo etc..) Ending the tour in the Highlander pub for a beer was also a nice way to wrap up the evening.
