Your Itinerary

Roman Forum

Marvel at the size of the largest political and commercial hub of the Ancient Roman Empire, as you drive by the ruins of grandiose temples, basilicas, and public spaces leading to the Colosseum.

Piazza Venezia

(Pass by)

Be amazed by the colossal white marble monument where the eternal flame always shines to pay respect to the unknown soldiers who fell during the war. Two soldiers guard it day and night to ensure it never goes out.

Appian Way (Via Appia Antica)

See the most important road of Ancient Rome, which was essential in transporting troops and goods in and out of Rome. Today, part of a splendid national archeological park.

Pantheon

the most ancient building in Rome to marvel at the "Oculus" in the center of the dome and the opulence of the marbles and the exquisite details of the statues all around you.

Admission Not Included

Piazza Navona

Rome is for real an open-air museum, as testified by this awesome square where you can admire the best example of Baroque art in its exquisite fountains. Why not enjoy a nice gelato as you stroll around the piazza?

Spanish Steps

Climb the 138 steps that lead to the church of Trinità dei Monti for a spectacular view of the square below, or just walk around the square to enjoy one of the most acclaimed spots in the Eternal City.

Trevi Fountain

Time to throw your coin in the Trevi Fountain for good luck and a safe return to Rome, but you need to do it right! Turn your back to the fountain, hold the coin in your right hand and toss it over your left shoulder!

Catacombs of Saint Callixtus

Ancient Roman law prohibited the burial of the deceased inside the city walls, so they were built along the Appian Way, which was outside the walls. They are a network of passageways that can stretch for over 15 miles underground, so visiting them is only permitted with the aid of a catacomb guide provided by the site.

Admission Included

Colosseum

Also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, it was built in the 1st century AD and is renowned for its grand scale and architectural innovation. The Colosseum was primarily used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles, symbolizing the might and entertainment prowess of ancient Rome.

This was our second time using Rome in Limo and yet again they were absolutely amazing. We bought my family to Rome for the first time and also had a few days in Assisi so booked Rome in Limo to do our transfers from Rome to Assisi and back. We than also had a wonderful Night tour and a tour of Rome with a trip to the catacombs. Our driver Peter was wonderful and my family learnt so much from his knowledge about Rome. We will definitely be returning to Rome again in the future and would not hesitate to use Rome in Limo again, a wonderful company.

We spent a wonderful day with Stefano, starting at the Catacombs and covering so many of Rome's "must see" sites, including the Appian Way, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, the Colosseum, Piazza Navona ... and a neighborhood pizza place that was delicious and cheap -- one of Stefano's favorite lunch spots with lots of locals. Stefano was so accommodating, told us a lot about Rome's history and culture, and made the day relaxing and fun. What a great way to see the city!

My husband and I took our son & future daughter-in-law on a Mediterranean cruise and we pre-extended in Rome. We had a day and a half to accomplish so much before boarding. I have to first of all thank Jany at Rome In Limo for being so patient with me in scheduling everything we needed to accomplish for our trip. Peiro was our driver for two solid days and was a wonderful guide and such a gentleman. He was also instrumental in organizing our son's engagement at Trevi Fountain on a day that looked like rain. On our final day in Rome after touring the Vatican, he found us a wonderful lunch location and then delivered us to our cruise boat. It was perfection. Laura and Maria Laura were our tour guides for the Colosseum/Ancient Rome and Vatican Tours. They were both incredibly knowledgeable and fun to be around. When we left for our cruise and did other tours in other cities, none could hold a candle to the treatment we received from Rome In Limo. We missed them and wished we could have brought them along! Thank you so much for making our trip fabulous and memorable. We couldn't recommend you enough.

By far the best company to use for touring Italy. Drivers are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to try to take you wherever you want to go. Stefano in Rome, & Johnny in the Amalfi Coast were both terrific!

We have used Rome in Limo in 2011 so when we were in Rome this year , September 2022, we booked them again. We had Francesco and Giovanni as our guides. I had made a list of areas of interest and they did it all! When our group wanted gelato, they found the perfect spot. It was delicious. So very pleased with them and would recommend them. 5 stars is truly not enough for their service. Thank you again for a wonderful day we will not forget. 💕

Our driver Stefan’s was fantastic! He was waiting for us at the airport and we spent 4 wonderful hours touring Rome and the catacombs. He was very engaging and shared so much information about Rome. He drove us to all of the highlights and we spent time at the bottom and top of the Spanish Steps as well as Tivoli fountain with plenty of time for pictures. He also gave us tips for the rest of our day/night in Rome. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with limited time in Rome!

We customized the Ancient Rome and Catacombs tour to pickup at Civitavecchia cruise port and drop off at our Rome hotel. From the moment we reached out with questions about the tour until we were dropped off at our hotel at the end, this was a 5 star experience. Our driver, Stefano was early for our designated pick-up and waiting for us when we disembarked the ship. We had some amazing private tours in all of our destinations, but this one was the highlight of our trip. We'd already visited the major sites, so we were hoping for some less well-known stops. Stefano was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He happily customized our stops, helped us find the best lunch spot that would accommodate food allergies, and made recommendations about things we might enjoy seeing. We learned so much, saw so many cool things we would not have found on our own, and had an absolutely amazing time. If you are on the fence about booking with them, just do it, you won't regret it for a second.

What a great experience. We used the Rome in Limo services for transportation from the airport to our hotels and day tours around the city. We felt safe the entire time. The drivers went out of their way to help us and show us around the great city. They even arranged a fantastic lunch. We were very pleased with their service and recommend them highly

Our tour guide Peter was really friendly and knowledgeable. He was on time, courteous and looked for ways to incorporate our requests into the tour. He even took us to his favorite Gelato place along the way and it did not disappoint!! Would highly recommend this company as I have used them for multiple trips in and around Rome and they're very professional.

This was one of the highlights of mine and my husband’s trip to Italy. Our driver Francesco was on time, friendly, and knowledgeable. He was sometimes more knowledgable than some of the guided tours we went on that day! The van was a nice reprieve from the heat that day and he gave us all of the tips we needed to make sure we had a lovely day. Our favorite part of the day was when he took us to this quaint restaurant for lunch that served the best pizza we had on our entire trip in Italy! The whole day was such an amazing experience. We would recommend it to everyone!
