Meet at Piazza Colonna
Looking for things to do in Rome at night? This tour's for you! Start in one of Rome's squares with a marble column almost 2,000 years old! First, a little history lesson before the real fun begins...
First pit stop
Our first drink of the night will be in a trendy aperitivo bar that is a popular spot with the locals. With your local Roman guide, you'll be shown to a table where you can chill and enjoy a drink!
Pantheon
This might just be our favorite monument in the city. Many see it in the daytime, but its true magic is shown in the evening under soft lighting.
Piazza Navona
Another favorite in the evening and a place steeped in history. You'll see why this is a popular place for locals to walk after twilight.
Second pit stop
In a little square, tucked away in the backstreets, you'll taste your second cocktail. A favorite with the Romans, this area comes alive at night and that's not just the second cocktail talking!
For Reference Only. Itineraries are subject to change
In Piazza Colonna, near the tall column in the middle of the square. A friendly representative will be there holding a "The Tour Guy" sign.
We're going out on the town, so feel free to dress up a little if you want to. You can never be too dressed up in Italy! Just bear in mind that there is a bit of walking between stops so avoid stilettos.

Our guide was fun and informative. My wife and adult children had an amazing time touring the different neighborhoods and tasting Rome’s finest cocktails. A real treat and great way to get familiar with the neighborhoods on our first full evening in Rome.
Fantastic tour with Monica

Our guide, Mario, took us on a fun tour of bars in different areas of Rome. He showed us how the Romans enjoy a cocktail and aperitivo after work and different cocktails later in the evening. There is lots of delicious food included so no need for dinner afterwards. Mario was very knowledgeable and made the evening fun for us. Highly recommend!

This tour was our last night in Rome. We had already seen most of major sights. Matteo was an engaging guide and toured us through the area near the Pantheon but also showed us Campo de fiore and the vibrant Trastavere areas which we had not visited. We enjoyed the history of the buildings and information as we walked. The drinks and food plates were a great way to try some dishes as we moved around was an elegant way see the city. Matteo was great host

Strolling through the streets with a local is so much more meaningful as they share snippets of history. We had 4 stops and the cocktails were primo and served with snacks. Recommend especially for solo travellers.
Great evening

The cocktail tour was as much fun as it was advertised to be, and Alessandro Ciccone was a superb guide. Because I had booked this as a totally private tour, his broad knowledge and outgoing personality allowed me to get a real feel for the culture and life of Rome in a context that was very different from the typical tourist experience. You are lucky to have him.
So much fun!

My family had the best time on this tour with our guide, Mario! He was so much fun & super knowledgable about all things Rome. As a local, he had a unique perspective on the city and insights to all the hidden gems of Rome. It was clear Mario and his team had but a lot of thought into the cocktail tour, between the bars we stopped in & the historic sites we saw along the way. We were ready to add Mario to our family by the end of the tour -- don't think, just book this tour!!!

Matteo for the win 🏆

Three 40-something Americans and a Roman walk into a bar... Our cocktail tour with Matteo started off with a splash (aka a downpour), but we didn't let the weather stop us from having a wonderful few hours of spritzes (of many styles and flavors), tasty snacks, and even a chocolate shot at the end. Matteo is a talented, fun, and extremely knowledgeable tour guide who showed us all around his city. While we debated American history (and even had to google a few things) Matteo walked us through the entire history of Rome with no googling or notes required. He's a fantastic guide and tolerated our MANY questions about Roman life (past and present). Thank you, Matteo!

A coworker recommended The Tour Guy and a cocktail tour was not exactly what I had in mind for my sister, niece, and me when I sought to book a tour that would help us get our bearings during our short time in Rome. In the end, I was so glad it was the only available option because the tour surpassed our expectations many times over. Our guide was so smart and engaging, and shared important historical context and many fun and interesting insights as he led us through several interesting neighborhoods and various venues to enjoy Italy's wonderful aperitvo tradition. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and I'd definitely book with The Tour Guy again the next time I'm in a new city. Grazie mille!

Matteo was an excellent guide and teacher for everything Rome had to offer from cocktails to historical sites and places that would not be easily found for an average tourist. He shared with us the details of life in Rome and other regions beyond to include Sicily and Sardinia. The places we went for cocktails were exciting and fun. Each with their own theme and specialty to include food. Our time with Mateo was excellent and helpful for our understanding of Italy and the life within.
Good tour. Great guide.

Our guide, Oscar, was exceptionally knowledgeable. The local drinks and snacks were great but his knowledge of all the buildings and structures we past while walking through the streets of Rome made this experience exceptional.
