Fabulous Faby!

We had the great pleasure of touring the Colosseum, Forum Romanum and Palatine Hill with Faby, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Faby’s in-depth historical knowledge of the archaeological sites truly enriched our visit — she provided fascinating insights into the ruins and brought ancient Rome vividly to life through her detailed explanations.
What stood out even more was Faby’s outstanding ability to engage both adults and children. Her storytelling skills and thoughtful way of presenting historical facts kept everyone captivated, transforming complex history into an experience that was accessible, lively, and memorable for all ages.
Additionally, Faby planned the tour with remarkable care and consideration. She timed our stops perfectly, making sure we paused in shady spots and near water fountains, which made a huge difference on a warm day. This attention to comfort allowed us to fully enjoy the experience without feeling rushed or fatigued.
We highly recommend Faby to anyone looking for a meaningful, enjoyable, and well-organized tour of ancient Rome.

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. We were a split group of four— two had been there before and for two it was the first time. Our guide managed to make the tour perfect for all four of us. We learned a lot, laughed a lot, and feel in love with the sights all over again (for the return visitors) and for the first time for the novice travelers to Rome. This tour was everything we could have wanted, and more. I’d recommend this to family and friends— and really to anyone.
Fantastic!

We had such a great time and Michele was a wonderful tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and did a phenomenal job checking in with us to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. He offered to go into more or less detail based on what we wanted to learn. And, more importantly, he made sure that our 11-month old was content throughout the tour. Thank you so much!

My family and I had an amazing private tour led by Freddie. He made our experience delightful, entertaining, and informative. Our teenage sons welcomed his engaging interaction. It was fascinating to hear the history of the Forum and Palatine Hill. We would absolutely recommend this tour. Ask for Freddie!
