The tour was Fantastic. The Catacombs were fascinating and we saw many, many more off-the-beaten-path sights. Our guide was very knowledgeable and very enjoyable to be around. Great experience!

After a week in Paris and a week in Rome we booked this last minute for our final day. WOW. The best tour we have done so far. Our guide Assem was absolutely amazing. The tour itself was the highlight of our holiday showcasing some of the more out of the way destinations but still passing by some of the popular tourist attractions. This is a must do tour if you want to see a little bit of the different side of Rome. Too many highlights to list but let’s just say the tour finishes with a bang at the tallest hill in Rome (Piazzale Garibaldi)

Great experience, knowledgeable and informative guide that was friendly and enthusiastic. Typically take just 1 family, possibly 2.

I felt totally short-changed by this tour. There was no walk along the Appian Way, the Pyramid was a drive past and the hidden key was so hidden that we didn't see it. We basically went to the catacombs then spent an hour and a half driving around Rome ending up at Capitoline Hill. The guide was very knowledgeable but my teenaged kids were bored out of their minds. The guide also made some comments which could have been taken as very offensive by some people.

Andrea provided an excellent tour: he was informative and friendly and showed us several sites that we might not have found on our own . His restaurant recommendation was excellent. We really enjoyed the your.

What an amazing experience! It was only us, so had a private chauffer that drove us round all these amazing hidden beautiful areas! The key hole was just a wow moment! You would need to take the tour to find out what I mean 💜 guide and driver was amazing, told stories, took photos for us, bought us a hot drink when we waited for the cannon to fire. Honestly it's brilliant! Can't recommend enough!

Our driver was knowledgeable and very friendly. It ended up just being two of us on the trip and our driver went above and beyond for us! He even took us to a wonderful restaurant at the end and we loved every bit of it. Would absolutely recommend this!!!
