Rome Tour Reviews

Rome: Colosseum, Forum, Palatine Hill, Circus Maximus
“Amazing guide with stunning knowledge and excellent tour plan!”
Sergio took us on a comprehensive and intimate tour of the Forum and Colosseum. His plan included a visit to the beautiful house of Augustus and a visit to the area underneath the Colosseum where the gladiators and animals were kept. His knowledge of history and the enthusiasm with which he shared his passion for the city was the perfect start for our vacation. Even though I have studied Roman history, Sergio helped bring the jumble of facts in my head to life. He was a superb guide and a delight to spend the afternoon with -- he even sent us in the right direction to find a lovely lunch!

“Professional & Fun”
Amazing guide full of energy and wisdom. We were able to see all the requested locations in Rome and got to see the Independence Day Parade and Italy's President. Sergio took us to try the best Ice Creme ever, the pizza was amazing too. Thank you for everything Sergio.
