Our guide Erturk was fantastic and we had a wonderful day exploring the city. We had a friend visiting who only had a day to dedicate ate to the city, so this tour ensured that we saw most of the iconic tour stops. Erturk was great at keeping us on time and planning all of the travel that was included in the tour. It was a long day, but o truly don’t think we would have seen as much if it wasn’t for this tour. We were able to skip some REALLY long lines as part of the group and we crammed as much in as possible. Erturk was also super knowledgeable, friendly and organized. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who has a short time in the city and wants to see as much as possible.

Dr. Enza is the best. Our tour was perfect. Interesting. Intriguing. Entertaining. Fun. Informative. Worth every penny! I’d recommend it as a “primer” for a first-time visit to the Eternal City.

We were expecting a busy day but it went so quickly, as we tried to take in so many interesting facts. The tour guide was absolutely fabulous, continuous in her historical easy to understand dialogue, relaxed, flexible and patient in leading us, and keeping us going and engaged, around each point of interest. We covered so much information and ground, it was certainly an immersive experience and one we would recommend to anyone who wants to cover Rome as much as possible in one day - be prepared for lots of walking, standing and crowds; we were certainly pleased it wasn’t hot! Thank you 🙏

What a fantastic day!! This tour was hugely recommended by some friend that went last year. Our guide Erturk was so knowledgeable. We never felt rushed and he made sure we all had a great experience everywhere we went. If you only have one day in Rome, this is the tour to book.

Our tour guide, a native to Rome, Maria was FABULOUS! She was extremely knowledgeable about art history and definitely Roman history. She gave us some little unknown pieces of information about the various historical sites like the colosseum. She was patient with questions and encouraged involvement from the group. Maria thoroughly enjoys her job and takes it very seriously however her smile and joyful attitude was very evident even up to the last hour. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Maria as your guide.
