Airport Transfer Arrivals Plus Tour of Rome 5 hrs

We were a family of 6 mostly adults...

<p>We were a family of 6 mostly adults and all with luggage traveling from the U.S. with a few days stay in Rome before the start of a cruise. We rented an apartment in the center of the city, but couldn't check in until the afternoon or store our luggage there in advance. Since our overnight flight arrived in the morning, we needed a place to store our luggage and, at the same time, we wanted to tour Rome and not waste our limited time watching our bags. This tour seemed like a perfect option for transportation of our group into Rome, storage of our luggage, and a tour of the city before checking into our apartment. We weren't disappointed. Our driver, Stefano, communicated with us in advance of our pick-up, was there on time to pick us up with a sign that showed our name, escorted us quickly to his clean and comfortable van which held all of us and our luggage, and provided us with cold water bottles. We spent the next several hours driving around Rome to the places we wanted to see and at the pace we wanted to see them. Stefano, who spoke above average English and had a great sense of humor, provided interesting background information on the sites, did his best to get us as close to the sites as possible, and then patiently waited for us to return before driving to the next location. At the end of our tour he also got us as close to our apartment as he could, which wasn't easy given the narrow and busy street it was located on. We would do this tour again and would certainly recommend it, as well as Stefano, to others facing similar logistical challenges when arriving in Rome in the morning. Thank you, Stefano, for helping to get our trip off to a great start.</p>
