Sara was fantastic, fun and positive! She did everything from start to finish. We only had to show up! She not only has a wonderful tour, she pre-bought our train tickets having them ready for us to go to Naples from Rome, before we even met her at the train station in Rome to go to Naples. We enjoyed that she took us to places that most tourists do not typically see, and taking us to places where locals eat. Sara was able to show us hidden gems along our tour that we would have missed if she was not with us. She would patiently wait as we went into places she suggested, or if we stopped to buy pretty jewelry from street vendors. She knows exactly where she is going and was observant regarding time. When we would go to Foodie places, we did not stand in long lines. She went to the front person and they immediately had our food ready. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. She suggested for us to have WhatsApp on our phone, which was very helpful in conversing with her prior to the tour and for an easy meeting point. Great tour and Sara helped us to make some fabulous memories!! Thank you Sara!!! Nibbles in Naples with Sara

Thank you Simone for the wonderful walking tour in Rome!
You’ve made it both very interesting and informative for our children 6 and 9 years old and us, adults.
It was like a fascinating walk with a friend through his home city with funny stories and secret places with delicious food. Perfect day in Rome👍

My son and I enjoyed our private tour it was all we were looking for and more!
Eleonora provided an individualized experience full of interesting facts and background information, and even sparkled a few refreshing more light-hearted pieces of information into our tour.
I definitely recommend Eleonora, and will book her again next time I will come to Rome.

Danielle was a fantastic guide! He accommodated my boyfriends pescatarian diet and his knowledge of the historical neighborhoods we navigated through made this so worth it! Danielle was so kind and friendly and had a smile on his face through the pouring rain on his birthday! We have already revisited the spots he took us to as well as the recommendations he made! So worth it!A Must DO!

Daniele, we asked Daniele to take us to sights and neighbourhoods away from the highlights in central historic room. This he did admirably. Collecting the 4 of us from our hotel, he took us to places we would not have gone to or found by ourselves. His anecdotes and humour also enlivened the walk and have given us a very good memory of a part of hidden Rome. We will happily recommend Daniele and hope to be able to walk with him again on a future visit to RomeA walk through time

Con mia moglie, abbiamo passato una stupenda giornata con Emanuele in una visita alle chiese di Roma ed alle Terme di Caracalla. Emanuele ci ha edotto su aspetti della Roma antica, veramente poco noti, come le acque che arrivavano a Roma attraverso i vari acquedotti, interrotti dai barbari invasori e ripristinati solo nei secoli successivi. Anche nella visita alle chiese la nostra guida è stata molto esauriente nelle spiegazioni e nei dettagli. Abbiamo imparato moltissimo e ci siamo personalmente trovati a nostro agio come se avessimo trascorso una giornata con un amico, appassionato di Roma e di profonda e raffinata cultura.visita privata con Emanuele del 25/01/2025

We came away so much more informed about the history and life of ancient Rome and cannot recommend this tour more highly. Top Colosseum, Palatine Hill & Forum Tour!

I spent a wonderful afternoon on January with Thomas exploring hidden foodie hotpots from the Vatican area and over a bridge to central Rome. We tasted everything from chocolate espresso to arancini, mouth-watering pastries, freshly squeezed pomegranate juice in an old market, to supply and 3 types of pizza. As we walked he also talked about art and history and was mire than happy to customise the tour if needed (he found me an amazing hidden place to photograph Rome from on high). At the end he even found my bus stop for me. Absolutely recommend!Fantastic foodie walk through Rome

We were so happy with Simone. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about all things Rome. My 16 year old daughter and I did this tour on the day of our arrival and it was a perfect start. We learnt a lot very quickly and discovered hidden places that we wouldn’t have known about otherwise. Simone gave us many ideas and tips for restaurants and meals too. His recommendation for an authentic Roman meal in Trastevere was the absolute best! Great experience with Simone

Paula had prepared for our culinary tour very well; she took us to interesting and high quality places. She packed a lot into our two hours: different kinds of food and drinks and we moved swiftly between places. She also included a lot of interesting cultural and especially architectural detail. She had clearly planned our two hours carefully in response to our requests and interests. She was a pleasure to be with and gave us a very enjoyable and useful experience. For the price/value rating, I am aware that the platform adds a very large percentage to the fee which the guide receives, hence the evening is quite expensive. It was definitely useful and enjoyable for us though. Paula is thoroughly professional while being very friendly and easy to relate to.Friendly and very knowledgeable guide

What a great tour! Our guide Eleonora made us learn about some roman food specialties but also about the neighborhoods we visited and about Italian culture. She was so funny that the 2.5 hours we spent with her were flying. I could have followed her for a few more hours. Thanks for this wonderful experience, Eleonora!Great tour thanks to Eleonora

Daniele was an amazing guide and was like the dear Roman friend we all wish we had. His insights into Rome, Roman culture and history, architecture, and his knowledge of Italy as a whole is unmatched. Time spent with Daniele was time well spent, and my family and I were very happy to have spent 1.5 engaging hours with him. We wish it were more! I would encourage anyone who wants a kind, genuine, engaging and worldly Roman Friend to choose Daniele as your guide.The Roman Friend You Wish You Had

Our tour with Daniele was one of the best experiences in our 4.5 weeks in Europe. We did the tour with him on the first afternoon in Rome so was a perfect introduction. His explanations were clear and really interesting. He took the time to understand what we were interested in and incorporated this in his tour. We didn't go to the 'big'tourist spots in Rome - he took us to amazing street food (some of the places we revisited in the following days), we wound through neighbourhoods we may not have discovered on our own and had a really great three hours. Thank you - my husband and I really enjoyed it - and our three teenagers absolutely loved it. Excellent introduction to Rome

I was just in Rome with my daughter and nephew and booked a guided visit of Ancient Rome in English with Eleonora. The tour went above and beyond my expectations. Eleonora was knowledgeable, fun and perfect for our little group: a college student majoring in history, a high schooler with a keen interest in the classics and history, and me, a lifelong learner. Eleonora led us expertly through the ruins, alternating intriguing stories with hard facts giving us a solid foundation and understanding of life in Rome in the past, through the centuries, and up to the present day. The three of us absolutely loved our time with Eleonora and learned a great deal from her and our tour. I cannot recommend her highly enough! Book a tour with wonderful Eleonora!

Paola was my partner and I’s first tour of Rome, and I strongly believe her tour was the perfect introduction to the city. As we got started, she asked what our Rome itinerary was to create a unique experience with minimal overlap and opportunities to explore niche locations that we never would have found.
Paola was warm and friendly and shared many insights on the extensive history of Rome.
An amazing way to experience Rome, I highly recommend. Incredibly insightful and fun tour

Paola was incredibly knowledgeable about Roman history. She taught my husband, my two teenagers and I an incredible amount of information and showed us beautiful places that we never would have found on our own. She also answered many general questions we had about Italy, such as how the government system works etc. It was a wonderful day with Paola and we highly recommend her. Thank you Paola for such an incredible experience. Beautiful Day around Navona with Paola

Paola is very knowledgable and passionate about her town and showed us highlights and hidden gems we would have never discovered otherwise. But being perfectly honest, 3 hrs. is never enough to fully discover such a magnuficent city - we only visited a very restricted part of it. 3 hrs. facts and figures and so much fun!

Sara was excellent communicating with me from the time of booking and she assisted me w other arrangements beyond what I’d have expected. Sara’s manner was warm, funny and incredibly informative. She answered all of our questions (including silly ones) with ease and good humour. Would highly recommend Sara.

Most food tours take place in Trastevere, which is fantastic but there is nothing more "Roman" than taking a tour with Paola through the Testaccio Market (and surrounding shops) where real folks do their shopping and the prices are significantly less. I would highly exploring the Testaccio Market with Paola guiding you through a maze of some of the best artisan purveyors Rome has to offer. Testaccio Market with Paola

Did a tour with Eleonora today and she was amazing! Yes this was a food tour but we also learned about the history of Rome and the area we were touring while walking. We learned so many things about the different foods that the Romans love and how the foods were produced to make them more regional. We were warned to come hungry and we did however we still couldn’t finish all of the different foods we were offered. We couldn’t even eat dinner tonight because we were still full!!Amazing Food Tour!!

We were a party of 4 and decided to do a tour by car as my parents are not big fans of walking. So Emanuele picked us up with his fantastic and very comfortable Mercedes GLA and off we went! It was basically the first time for all of us in Rome (my parents had visited ages ago and didnt remember much). We spent 3 hours with Emanuele taking us around the most known must see places in Rome but also showed us many hidden gems. We made several stops to walk around certain parts of the city. The tour was also a compact lesson of the history of Italy!! Rome for Dummies! His great passion and knowledge made this tour really worth while. He was very attentive even after the tour during our whole stay suggesting things to do the next day and recommended also restaurants (not only the "famous" one that are known to tourists but also the ones the locals prefer, which is what one really needs. He was really awesome. Thank you very much and hope to see you soon again.The perfect Rome tour!
