Day in Rome

The Tour Guy was great in working with my request to tailor a Day in Rome to meet my needs and time limits. The guide had a commanding understanding of English, so it made the tour very informative and educational. Also, the guide had a working knowledge of the sites visited as he had help restore many of the sites I saw.

We had a 8 hour private tour with Giovanni and it was amazing. He took us to all the major stops easily with no waits and took his time to explain everything to us. We walked away wiser and happier. Thank you Giovanni

We only had a day to spend seeing Rome and this tour provided us with a great experience. Manuela S. was our guide and she was outstanding. She knew we were on a tight schedule and made sure that we hit all of the highlights that Rome has to offer. She was very personable and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Manuela!

We had the absolute pleasure of touring with Bogdan from The Tour Guy, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we met, Bogdan’s warmth, professionalism, and deep knowledge of Roman history made our experience unforgettable.
He guided us through all the must-see sights in Vatican City, including the awe-inspiring Sistine Chapel, St. Peter’s Basilica, and the Vatican Museums, sharing fascinating stories and insights that brought the art and architecture to life.
Afterwards, we continued to the Colosseum, where Bogdan’s storytelling transported us back to ancient Rome. His passion for history and ability to engage Olivier and myself and made the tour both educational and entertaining.
Bogdan went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable day. If you're looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about what they do, Bogdan is the one. Highly recommended!
Best tour ever!

Luigi was the best. He was so incredibly knowledgeable. He’s an archaeologist and a geologist. A world of knowledge that he shared with us. It was a long tour but well worth it. I would do it all over again. Thanks Luigi!!!
Outstanding!

We did not have much time in Rome and wanted to see the major sight so we selected this tour. We accomplished our goal. Manuala S was our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about all the locations and shared this with us. The locations were all packed. She did a great job seeing the sights, getting us through the croud and keeping us relaxed. She also showed us a great place for lunch. I would highly recommend thei private tour and Manuala as your guide.
Great!

Minverva our tour guide was fantastic. ( I probably spelled her name 😑). The amount of information she knew was incredible. It did get pretty warm that day and we all powered through. She gave us great suggestions for lunch and some gelato! Would definitely book it again. We watched the other tours with 20+ people. We liked our private guide. Don’t over think it. Was excellent.
