Italy Driving Tours

This is a beautiful museum and a real treasure. The groups are small and our guide was knowledgeable and passionate. You have to appreciate the beauty here.

Our tour to Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Italy. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. The bus was clean and comfortable, which made the ride enjoyable and relaxing. The tour guides were fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of fascinating details that really brought the history to life. Our bus driver was excellent too—safe, smooth driving through some pretty winding roads. The ruins of Pompeii were breathtaking—it’s hard to describe just how incredible it is to walk through a city frozen in time. If you’re visiting Italy, this should be at the top of your list. After Pompeii, we headed up to Mount Vesuvius, and the views from the summit were stunning. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome!

Perfect tour to see all of the major landmarks in Rome! Our guide Daniele was the best and so informative. Entertained our two young children the entire time with historical stories and events. Loved every second of it.

Our family had an AMAZING time! Our teenage kids loved the history. Our guide was a walking encyclopedia. The knowledge that she had was amazing. We walked well over a mile inside the Vatican City and it was great being guided through it versus trying to figure it out on our own. Even our 9 year old made it through, but it was a bit of a struggle the last hour with the heat.

Rome in day tour was wonderful. We were able to see all the sights, Maria was was a terrific guide for our group. I would recommend the tour to others and am glad I chose this one.

Our tour guide was oustanding! She shared so much information with us that I woulf highly recommend her to anyone! Great day!

So much fun. We all had a fantastic time. The chef was so kind and understanding and gave great instructions. Food was awesome too. Fettuccine ravioli tiramisu.

The Tour was convenient, fun and included a Gondola ride that was better than expected.

Our guide was very knowledgeable . It was occasionally difficult to hear because the microphone kept pausing

We had a wonderful tour led by Kate. There were 2 youths in our party and she took special care to include them in various aspects of the tour. She was extremely knowledgeable of every aspect of the Vatican. I was having trouble with the extreme heat. She kindly ensured I had enough water and offered places I could sit along the tour. She’s a wonderful guide in a beautiful city! ❤️

Gino was a great guy! Lots of great info and really managed the tour well!

We went on the tour on one of the busiest and hottest, days of the year. Our guide kept track of the group and made sure we saw the highlights of the entire site. He was knowledgeable and answered our questions. Great day!

Fabrizio, our tour guide, made this tour amazing. Rome is beautiful and it was so awesome to see the many sights we’ve only read about in books. He gave plenty of time for rest/shade during the hot summer. VERY knowledgeable and had printed out photos to help explain the history of Vatican and Roman ruins we toured. He kept everything on-time and maximized our day - I feel like this is truly the only way to see Rome if you’re short on time like we were. We went in July and had heard the warnings but WOW it was hot! So be prepared - drink water the day BEFORE to get ready. About 5 miles of walking in all on some uneven surfaces and about 5 flights of stairs.

Our tour guide Michele was great! He was full of knowledge, and my husband and I found he had a good sense of humor. It was a great experience, climbing the dome was so worth it. Thank you for a day packed of history and letting us join in on the journey.

After a disappointing tour with TheTourGuy to Pompeii, I was wary of tour to Colosseum tour but I was pleasantly surprised. Gabriel, our tour guide, was a delight from start to finish. He kept us thoroughly engaged—not just with historical facts, but also with pop culture references and a healthy dose of “dad jokes” that kept the mood light. He even quizzed us along the way to make sure we were still with him (and awake!). What stood out most was his depth of knowledge—not only about the Colosseum itself but also about its place in the broader context of Roman history. Every question we asked was answered thoughtfully and in detail. Gabriel clearly knows his subject inside and out, and his passion made the tour come alive. After my earlier experience, this tour was a welcome surprise. If you’re on the fence, don’t be—just ask for Gabriel aka self proclaimed "Dr. Jones."

We REALLY enjoyed climbing the dome of St. Peter’s. I was expecting it to potentially be scary but wasn’t really at all. The views and breeze at the top was great and I was glad that we did the climb before anything else. It is a manageable climb for anyone in at least moderate health. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. The only negative isn’t the fault of the tour… just that the Vatican museums were PACKED with people and it made the Sistine Chapel feel more like an airport waiting area than what it really was. Still cool to see, but a kind of a weird experience with people talking all over the place (it’s supposed to be silent) and people on loudspeakers just trying to remind tourists to be polite.

It was extremely hot so we appreciated that our guide started our tour in the forum while it was cooler and ended at the Colosseum, which is more shaded. She was highly knowledgeable and took very good care of us. The stadium floor access is simply a deeper access onto the main floor, which was really fun to be able to stand not just at the edges of the colosseum. My history nerd husband really loved the Forum portion.

This tour was so fun- Murano’s glass and Burano’s lace were so interesting and beautiful. If we ever go back to Venice we will definitely go back to these Islands. The knowledge of our tour Gide was amazing . She lives on Murano- she was perfect!

Took a colosseum group tour with Bogdan and it was probably my favorite tour I’ve done so far on my stay here! Bogdan is super knowledgeable, but knows how and when to relate to his group and I greatly appreciated his ability to find good shade and remind us to stop and drink our waters in this July heat. Highly recommend taking this tour with Bogdan. (-:

This tour was breathtaking. Amazing sights and an excellent job by Monica. She was so nice, helpful, and had great food recommendations as well. If we needed water, she knew right where to take us. So happy I had this experience.

Guido was amazing! Very down to earth, friendly, knowledgeable and made the tour worth it!

We were fresh off the plane and eager to see the Vatican (our only opportunity since it was closed on Sunday) - our guide was so informative and answered our questions. We also appreciated having fewer people at the Vatican because of the evening hours. Highly recommend!

Ilaria was so kind and with only 5 of us, we were truly able to understand Trastevere. I feel way more confident going out here on my own now!!! The food was excellent. Love the local experience!

Monica gave us a fantastic tour! She was informative, organized, engaging, friendly, caring, and a pleasure to spend time with today. She made our experience in Rome a perfect way to appreciate the customs and culture of the city. It’s obvious that Monica loves Rome, and she shared that love with us. Anne-Liesse and Jerry

Maria, our tour guide was fantastic! Very knowledgeable, energetic and fun. She made our experience at the Vatican that much better. Incredible experience!
