We had an amazing time today together with Giovanni (John). He is very very knowledgeable, easy to talk with and was very quick in pointing out nice sites along the way to Pompei. We would love to have him as our guide again the next time we come to beautiful Rome.

This company does a wonderful job of guiding us through Rome. Our guide Armondo was wonderful and very informative. we did a tour of the Vatican with our guide there , valerie. She made the vatican coe alive. You cannot do better in Rome than this company. the friends we were with were in awe both of the town and the guides.

Angelo was fantastic; very informative, prompt and flexible. Added a few extra places to the tour that were excellent. Our lunch was the best we had in Rome. It was everyone’s favorite day!

Twelve of us took the Rome by Night guided tour in two vans. It was wonderful, exactly what I was hoping for -- a great overview of the city for several among us who'd never been to Italy or Rome, a refresher of places where we wanted or had planned to spend more time in the next several days. We got to throw our coins in the Fountain of Trevi, walk around the Piazza San Pietro and admire Bernini's genius of engineering, stroll on the Piazza Navona, and walk around the marvel of the Pantheon. As it happened, we arrived in Rome on Carnavale weekend (Sat. Feb. 18), and I was eager to try the special Roman pastries called frappe and castagnole that are made only at this time of year. Our driver found a pasticceria near our stop for the Piazza Navona, and we got to sample and buy some of these delectable treats!

Rome Private Excursions (RPE) is a wonderful company with safe, professional, on time, well educated, informed drivers/guides with kind and engaging at-ease personalities. Our family of 8 which included an infant, and 2 children ages 5 & 7 years old, are thrilled with the tours and driving services provided. Along with transfers from and to airport (Rome Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport) we enjoyed many days of touring using RPE services - Unusual Rome locations, Amalfi Coast, Positano, Pompeii, Vatican/Sistine Chapel/St Peter’s Basilica, Tuscany/Montepulciano, Borghese Gallery Museum, and a beach excursion. I am so pleased to have setup these excursions prior to going to Rome. It was quite a busy with tourists (post Covid) with high temperatures and high humidity. I highly recommend this company. I will definitely utilize their services again in the future. Grazie Mille RPE-Luca, Andrea, Johnny, Antonio, Max, Maurizio, Fabio (I’m hoping I haven’t forgotten anyone!)

Luca and his team are AMAZING! They all went above and beyond to show us all of the usual and unusual sites in Rome, the Vatican, a day trip to the Amalfi Coast, a day at the beach, and a day trip to Tuscany. That’s not mentioning their prompt arrival from the airport to our Airbnb and back to the airport. Each driver knew tons of facts and history throughout our drives, and they were so good with the kids (7 months, 5 years, and 7 years). I will absolutely reach out to them again when/if we return to Italy!

Our driver/guide, Chris, was AMAZING! He showed us all the places we wanted to see, was very knowledgeable, prompt, and funny! He even found a great place for us to eat and told the owners to bring us whatever they wanted to! It was a great experience! We highly recommend him!

We had a wonderful time & loved our guides Fausto for the night time tour of Rome & Max for the day trip, they had us laughing & learning. Can't ask for more than that. Max also took us to St Paul's Cathedral which was not on the itinerary & it was magnificent.

We had great time in Italy. Both private tours in Rome and Almalfi Coast were great tours/transfers from our cruise line excursions. They brought us home awesome memories, especially the trip in Naples. My kids loved our tour guide Raffel and his stories. The date we arrived Naples was an extremely crowed Easter Monday holiday. Raffel drove us unusual route thru the Milky mountain to beat the crowds and traffic. We were not only able to see the amazing views of Almafi Coast, also had a great scenery tour climbing the mountains. We had so much fun and wows during both trips and benefit huge deal because they were private. I rated the tours 5 and would love to recommend to all my friends who are interested going there soon. Which I know a lot of them are after seeing my beautiful pictures. Thanks Luca's on-time coordination and arrangement and his team's hard work brought us home this unforgettable memories .
