This was an excellent way to see the city of Rome! My guide tailored it to my speed and gave informative history during our run. Also he took cool photos!

Wow! If you run even a little bit, you will enjoy this tour! Our guide, Simone, was so well-versed in everything Rome - his love and knowledge of Rome made the tour even more amazing. So many interesting little spots that we never would have known about otherwise. It was so fun to let someone else worry about the route so we could just enjoy the run! He went at our pace, made sure to get us to a few of Rome’s many water fountains, and provided door to door service with the run. Cannot recommend enough!!

I am an avid runner and was so excited to find this tour! Fabrizio, my running guide, was amazing! He met me at my hotel which is right by the colosseum. We started our run right away. He made sure that we ran at my pace and let me lead when I needed to run or take a break. He was very knowledgeable and we made several stops to take pictures. This was such an amazing way to experience Rome and recommend this to runners of all levels!

The whole experience was great ! Claudia was so knowledgeable about Rome and took time to talk about the history of Rome. I would definitely recommend this tour and Claudia.

Best pictures of the whole trip before the city woke up. Nothing better than starting the day on a run in a new place. Especially nice to be guided and not worry if getting lost.

Great run tour of Rome! Nice to see the city early in the morning before the crowds descend. And my 2 tour guides were ready and willing to lead me on a rainy morning. Thank you!

The Rome running tour with Simone was everything I wanted. An early, on time start to beat all the crowds at the major sights, he included sights I had not heard of before, or off the beaten track, the running pace was adjusted to suit everyone. Simone is a knowledgeable local runner and tour guide. I learnt more and saw more in this 90 minute run than I did in the next few days in Rome. I highly recommend this company and Simone and the way to see the city before it fully awakens. Thank you Simone for a wonderful experience.

I have taken running tours all across the globe and this was the best! Prior to the tour, Dario reached out to confirm our meeting spot and the day of the run, he met me at my hotel at 6:30 AM. It was quite easy (and something I haven’t always experienced during similar experiences). I have been to Rome before so it was nice to see the well known and less known spots around Rome (sun rise over the Roman Forum is amazing!). It was the perfect blend of running and touring - at a pace that was comfortable! I highly recommend this - oh and I got a running gator with a gladiator on it - a perfect way to remember it!

Everything about it was amazing! Just the feeling of running where ancient Romans walked and lived was a surreal experience! Thank you to the kind man who navigated us through the city. 😊

Perfect start to a morning in Rome. Simone was excellent, ran to spots in the city that only locals know. He explained the history of the city and the sights. Definitely one to do even if it’s not your first time in the city
