What a perfect day in Rome! Matteo made sure we got a great overview of this beautiful city and explained the history in such a way to give the sites we were seeing context and the necessary framework. He also gave our group the option of enjoying a relaxing Italian lunch together, and I’m so glad he did. This meal - far away from the tourist traps - was the best meal of our entire trip. If you only have a short time to spend in Rome, this is the perfect excursion!

Wonderful tour with our driver! The pickup from the cruise port went smooth and easy. The drive into Rome was fast as the Italians were on holiday. With the lack of traffic traveling around Rome was a breeze. We stopped at every point they had. Colosseum, The Vatican, Piazza Novana, Piazza Campo de'Fiori, Piazza Venezia, Spanish Steps, Pantheon, Santa Maria sopra Minerva, Trevi Fountain, Sant'Agnese in Agone, Janiculum Hill, Fontana dell'Acqua Paola among others. Great tour and we would highly recommend it!

A excellent full day tour of Rome that hit all the major sites. Our driver (Vlad) provided excellent service and information along the way! The small group nature of this tour is far better than the large group experiences offered by the cruise lines. Would highly recommend!
