Beatrice was an excellent driver and guide. She provided the best balance of tour details while also allowing for us to explore the basilicas on our own. She was so professional and courteous. We also enjoyed the little anecdotes and stories as we travelled about Rome.

Our guide, Mauricio, was fantastic! This was the perfect private tour of St. Mary Major, St. John’s, St. Paul outside the walls and the holy steps. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and even took us to a Jesuit church not on the tour, with a fabulous view of the city of Rome. He also recommended a local restaurant for lunch that was so delicious! He was a safe driver and gave us plenty of time to explore the basilicas. 10 stars for this private tour!

Roberto gave us the most amazing private tour of Perugia. He is a fantastic safe driver, and has so much knowledge of Perugia. We loved every second and would highly recommend this tour company. The communication 10/10 and the lunch they organized at a family winery was SENSATIONAL - couldn’t be happier! THANKYOU so much!
