Our guide Cristiana was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. She adapted our private tour to accommodate all that we wanted to see. She even recommended restaurants for that evening.

We had a wonderful time with Paula. She was very engaging. She held our attention the whole time. Despite our jet-lagged and early rise to take a train to Rome, Paula had us smiling and gave great references for our teen age son to imagine life and culture during Roman times. We saw : Pantheon (outside only) Colosseum (inside) Roman square Vatican City(Sistine chapel, St Peter’s basilica, and several palaces with in the city)(inside the buildings) Trevi Fountain Spanish steps Piazza Navona We got a great overview and history of all the different sites. I highly recommend spending the day with Paula, she has wonderful energy and spirit.
Perfect Day!

Our tour was truly amazing! Marie is friendly and knowledgeable. As a former teacher, I appreciate her tour strategy. She asked questions about what we knew or thought regarding what we would see. Then she would share her knowledge. This allowed us to truly have a greater appreciation for all that we experienced. On a return trip, I will definitely book another tour with The Roman Guy.

Our group of 7 - 4 adults and 3 teens, ages 15 and 17 - had the pleasure of joining Liz’s tour. What a delight, start to finish. The tour was on time and well paced and organized, and Liz was a wealth of knowledge. Not only did she provide continuous insights and answer our questions, but she did so in a way that kept all of our interest. Truly worth every cent. I can’t recommend this enough!

First and foremost, my family of ten would like to send a huge shout out to our incredible tour guide Enza Broccoli, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!! Now to give a quick review of why she was so amazing and why I hope everyone who goes to Rome takes advantage of "The Roman Guy" services. With a family of ten at day 10 of our European adventure, everyone was a little run down. Enza was very understanding and flexible to help accommodate the needs of everyone in our group. She was willing to stop, take photos, but also kept us going, so we didn't miss the important sites and views. She was super well versed, providing us a fountain of information in an enjoyable and entertaining fashion, which brought the whole experience to the next level. The Vatican (even as a non religious family) was glorious and an immaculate sight to behold, going to Trevi Fountain, seeing the Pantheon and it's massive pillars, walking through the Roman Forum, standing a top looking down at all of it, was breath-taking and then entering the Colosseum, being immersed in all of that history was spell binding, the sheer massiveness and hearing the stories, imagining what it would have been like, looking down and the intense feeling of awe, it was an experience of a lifetime, we will never forget. From the moment I purchased the tour from "The Roman Guy" website to the last moment when the drivers dropped us off at our hotel, everything went better than planned, definitely worth spending the extra for the Private Rome in a Day Tour!!!

We did the “Rome In A Day” private tour starting at Vatican City and ending at the Colosseum. Roberta was our guide for the day and we couldn’t have had a better day!!!! She was fantastic and very knowledgeable. But better than that she was very warm and welcoming!! She gave us so much great information and insights about everything!! The line skipping and private transportation between sites was fantastic! We couldn’t have done it without her and our driver, Armando. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone that wants to have the best day seeing all the sites of Rome!!! Great memories were made today and it was because of Roberta and The Tour Guy!!
