  This was an excellent way of spending one of my days while visiting Rome. Cerveteri is a sprawling expanse of tumulus after tumulus. It's not like most archaeological parks where all that's left is a series of small walls - the tumuli are mostly intact if a bit overgrown which only serves to heighten the sense of wonder and mystery. You can really feel you are in a setting that the Etruscans could still recognise. Conversely, nothing remains above the surface at Tarquinia - a few relatively modern entryways to modern stairs. But at the base of the stairs you can look into at least a dozen tombs with spectacular preserved frescoes that give you a glimpse into the lost Etruscan world. Scoot Around Rome - and my guide Simone - were an excellent way to reach the sites. The drive isn't bad and Simone was able to provide a lot of insight both into the Etruscans and some other aspects of Italy on route. He was extremely flexible and communicative and I felt that the value added to the trip by using Scoot Around Rome more than justified the price of hiring them. I travel regularly and have booked tours through companies similar to Scoot Around Rome over the years and I would place this Simone and Scoot Around Rome in the top tier.

  Wonderful trip! Simone is knowledgeable and speaks very good English. We spent as long as we wanted to at each site. Simone bought us lovely cakes after the first site which was much appreciated. Next year we will book Simone’s Tivoli trip which sounds amazing.

• A wonderful day.

  We did three day trips with Simone and they were all very informative and great fun. The Etruscan day was probably the highlight, especially the necropolis of Cerveteri, which is vast and unique. We learned a lot about the Etruscans and had fun clambering in and out of tombs. Our driver/ guide, Simone, made the day very enjoyable. We also recommend his trips to Hadrian's Villa/ Villa d'Este and the day along the Appian Way. We were very glad we had booked him for all three ahead of time.

  We had a wonderful tour with Simi visiting the Etruscan sites of Cerveteri and Tarquinia. Simi is a fantastic guide – very friendly, punctual, and clearly very passionate about the history of the region. He explained everything in a very engaging way and also shared helpful tips and recommendations along the way. The Etruscan necropolises are truly fascinating and definitely worth visiting. Unfortunately, at one of the sites only about half of the tombs were open to visitors because the others were under restoration, so we couldn’t see all of the painted tombs. Still, it was a very interesting experience and we learned a lot. The museum in Tarquinia is excellent and complements the visit to the necropolises perfectly. With Simi’s explanations, the history really came to life. Overall, we highly recommend Simi as a guide. He is knowledgeable, well organized, and makes the whole experience both informative and enjoyable.

  What a wonderful experience ! The tombs. especially Cerveteri, were amazing, the trip very well organized, and Simone, our driver/guide, an absolute pleasure to be with. I cannot imagine a better way to see both these sites. I highly recommend Scoot Around Rome.

  A wonderful day with beautiful countryside and views of the sea. The Etruscan tombs, especially the painted ones in Tarquinia, were amazing. The museums for each were interesting also. Don't miss the gelato shop in Tarquinia. Simone allowed plenty of time for exploring on your own but was always available to answer questions or give tips for things to see. He is such an informative guide with a great sense of humor and obvious love for Italy and its history. I would highly recommend Scoot Around Rome and Simone for any of the tours he offers. You will have an exceptional day!!

  What a great day trip. Simon picked us up from our B & B, and was prompt, fun & very informative. Nothing was rushed & we visited both sites & and museum. The sites were not crowded & we took our time. He had cold drinks on hand for us, & gave us a secondary phone he had for site briefings & to call him if we wanted. We also had a lunch break & stops whenever we wanted. Lots of laughs with him during the day as well. An excellent day trip which we both enjoyed & highly recommend. With thanks. John & Susie.
