This tour covered a lot of ground during the seven hours. It is a great choice for those trying to see Rome on a short time schedule. Our guide, Erturk, was extremely knowledgeable and spoke very good English. I highly recommend him and this tour.
One day in Rome? No problem!

I scheduled a last minute trip to Rome and with only 2 full days in the city, this was the best way to maximize my time and see the highlights of Rome. My guide was Giovanni and he was wonderful and very knowledgeable. He expertly answered all of our questions, kept us out of the sun (as much as possible), and acted as our photographer. We never felt rushed. He has an easygoing demeanor. I would highly recommend him as a tour guide and would love to another some with him if/when I return to Rome. 5/5

Absolute shout out to Danielle for being a legend. He was an amazing guide for the whole day, and very knowledgable. He was also just fun to talk to and happy to answer questions. It was very chill and we never felt rushed at all. It would have been nice to have more time to look around the Vatican, but we may have run out of our allocated time due to the delayed start. We very much appreciated the detours via water fountains, as well as the ride between the Vatican and the Pantheon. We also loved that we ended at the Colosseum as we got more time to explore on our own after the tour ended.
Best guide ever! Maria

On 07/19/24, we had the pleasure of having Maria guiding us on the Rome in a day with the Colosseum and Vatican tour. Since our first meeting, she has been very respectful and professional. During the almost 8 hours we spent with her, we could learn a lot about Romam's history, and she made it easy to understand. The way she spoke during the tour was not dull, and it was easy to assimilate all the information. We could tell that she is a person with a lot of knowledge and experience. We want to thank her again for the wonderful and unforgettable day we had.
Paola Pagano was absolutely amazing! The best tour guide ever!

We had the most adorable tour guide in Rome that was so knowledgeable and upbeat even though we were walking in 99 degree weather all day! This tour was fantastic and covered all of the important things to see in Rome. Paola knew the answer to every question we asked because she is an archeologist and so well versed in the Roman history. I strongly recommend you check this Rome in a day tour out and ask to be in her group-you will not be disappointed! Thank you Paola for the amazing tour and time we got to spend with you!!! ❤️GRATZIA from Rhode Island,USA!

Highly recommend this tour ! Our tour guide was Daniel. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to our group as we moved our way through the various tour stops. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour, and would recommend it to anyone looking to get as many of the major highlights in Rome visited in a day. There is a lot of walking involved in this tour, so I advise you wear appropriate and comfortable footwear. We visited in the summer , it was blazing hot and the tourism was at a high, so being able to skip the extremely long lines to enter the Vatican museums, St. Peter's Basilica, the Sistine Chapel, and the Colosseum was great. Daniel also made sure we stayed hydrated , stayed in the shade as much as possible , had enough breaks and even showed us how to drink from the water fountains like a local, and how to pick real gelato ! If you’re on the fence about booking this tour - book it ! It’s worth every penny !

This was a great tour. Return made it just fascinating. His knowledge and his attention to detail is simply remarkable. Pay attention and you will learn a LOT. Be ready to walk, wear good shoes, Erturk knew exactly where to stop for bathroom breaks and water through the tour. Highly recommend,

This tour is absolutely the best decision we made in Rome. Maria is a treasure. We had such a lovely time in our group of 10. Rome is HOT and Maria did an amazing job finding the shade for us and making sure we knew what to expect if we weren't in the shade. One of the best parts of this tour is not worrying about where to go or which lines to get into, Maria handled everything and we didn't have to think about it at all. We got a great sampling of everything we saw. It was SO hot and I would have liked more time at the forum, but we would have melted if we stayed there any longer. I would do this tour again in a second. wear comfy shoes, makes friends, it's a great day!! And if you can, request Maria.

We were on the fence about spending so much for a tour, but our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly, we felt like it was money well spent. We skipped the long lines into Vatican City and the Colosseum and she showed us her love for this beautiful city. If you are hesitating, go for the tour!

From very beginning the experience exceeded expectations. With the large crowds lining up to enter the Vatican, I soon realized this tour was already a good choice. We skipped the long lines and entered soon after our meeting time. Our guide was so prepared with documents, pictures and great explanations to give the group a full experience. Gabby made sure at every point everyone in our group was ok. We had plenty of breaks and I can’t believe we saw Rome in a day and enjoyed it so much. Highly recommended it
