We had not planned anything for our last day in Rome so I was looking for a short tour and came across this amazing wine tasting tour. I sent a message to Claudio, and he replied immediately, giving us a tailor made plan for a last minute tour that has been the highlight of our stay! Claudio accommodated our requests and did some last minute changes to the program because it was raining. Wow! Everything was excellent and Simone gave us a lot of information on the process of wine making as well as the wine we tasted at the vineyard. We also enjoyed a fantastic lunch with another wine tasting at a restaurant. Unforgettable!! Claudio is truly amazing, he is incredibly knowledgable, very friendly and will make sure you will have a fantastic experience. Worth every minute!!

We had a pleasant tour with claudio. He was a very nice man and had a lot of knowledge. However the tour did not exactly go as we expected. We had no special requests for the tour and we expected the guide to have a clear plan for us, but instead we felt we were wandering aimlessly around the city. The places we visited felt a bit random, even though they were nice. Also, the tour guide did not talk and explain as much as we wanted. All in all this was a mediocre experience. Maybe this tour is suitable for people who have a clearer plan for their tour.Nice but not what we expected

Great tour with Claudio, who adapted the tour to our time constraints. We did a good mix of famous locations and less known ones, which was perfect for our team, since some of us already knew Rome. It was also a good mix in terms of information about the city and pure biking. Sometimes, the guide is spending too much time talking about a place, while we want to see as many different places as possible. With Claudio, it was exactly the right level of interesting information we needed. I recommand highly.Bespoke tour in Rome with Claudio

Claudio was our #1 of the 8 tour guides we had during our trip. We booked a wine and food tour but it became so much more. The wine and food was fantastic but the olive oil was unforgettable. Claudio ended up buying some as well. But the best part was the hidden archeological site he surprised us with. They were actively working the site. No entrance, fee or other tourists, just us and the university archeologists. Thank you Claudio. Much more than wine and food

Claudio introduced me to a wonderful mix of art and culture in Rome! I had an amazing experience in Rome with a local private guide named Claudio. If you're looking to explore the city beyond the usual tourist spots, I highly recommend him! Claudio took me to a fascinating Spanish art school where I learned about the rich history of art in the region. We also explored vintage shops filled with unique finds and artistic treasures. The art galleries he showed me were exceptional, showcasing both classic and contemporary works that truly captured the spirit of Rome. We enjoyed some great coffee at charming cafes and discovered vibrant bars that are perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. One of the highlights was attending an art exhibition that featured local artists—Claudio's insights made it even more enjoyable! Additionally, we navigated through the fashion scene, where Claudio pointed out some hidden gems and boutiques that reflect the city’s stylish vibe. If you're looking to see a different side of Rome and immerse yourself in its art and culture, Claudio is the guy to go with. His passion and knowledge make the experience unforgettable! I felt very safe with him and it was such a Luxus to have a translator with you . Local guides are the way to go

Great walk and chat with Claudio. Brought us to taste many authentic delicacies.He pointed out and explained many of the historical elements found on our route. Would recommend this activity if you have a short layover and are looking for a fun activity. Wonderful overview of local flavors

This was a highlight of our trip to Rome! Claudio was very responsive before the tour and met us at our hotel right on time. We toured some ruins and took in amazing sights before the real highlight - the winery tour at a beautiful, small local winery. Paula was an amazing host and her cute winery dog made it even better. We finished at an authentic Italian restaurant with even more wine. Claudio and this tour couldn’t be recommended enough!!Want a real local experience?? This is it!

We booked the wine tour with Claudio, which was coincidentally on my 40th birthday! We had such a great day! Claudio scooped us up from our hotel in Rome, and was beyond informative. While it’s of course his job, it felt like we were friends throughout the day! He answered questions, gave us information we would never have known, and helped us to see amazing things throughout our day! Paula was wonderful, and it’s clear she truly loves her work. We would love to catch back up with Claudio should we ever visit Rome again! It was truly an exceptional day! Amazing Experience

Wat een ervaring was dit! De mooiste producten geproefd met de duidelijke uitleg van Claudio erbij. Claudio was heel relaxt en flexibel, dit zorgde bij ons ook voor rust na een paar dagen vooral het drukke Rome bezocht te hebben met twee kinderen (12 en 8) . We hebben met ons vieren enorm genoten van het gezelschap en het eten en drinken!Heerlijk!

Claudio was exceptional. Was awaiting us outside our apartment right on time for a full day in the Frascati region. Excellent first stop for a cappuccino then on to view historic sites in the mountains. Claudio’s choice of our vineyard, Antiche Terra Tuscolane with Paula as our host, was the best wine experience we have ever had. Great wines in Roman-era caves! Simply amazing. Off for lunch and more wine tasting and the food……exceptional. Great conversations, wonderful local expert and a nice day out of Rome to experience another part of Italy. Claudio was the consummate host. Recommend him highly!Perfect host for a perfect day!

Claudio took us around the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Mamertime Prison. He was friendly and made our day really fun. He did a good job of navigating through the crowds and kept us on time. Thanks Claudio! Claudio was a cool dude!

My family did a food tasting tour with Claudio and we had a wonderful time. The food was great, but we really enjoyed talking with Claudio along with way too - really great experience. I especially want to point out that Claudio did a great job customizing the tour / route to accommodate some mobility issues my father was having at the time. I look forward to doing another tour with Claudio the next time I'm in Rome. Highly recommend! Amazing Tour with Claudio

Claudio was a great guide. The ride route was well thought out and provided us a different type of experience in Rome. We saw the very picturesque parks and monuments. I would highly recommend especially for a couple or small group.Great Bicycle Ride through Rome

Claudio was very patient with our wishes from the beginning, when we started to contact him. The tour itself was really nice, a trip to the hills near Frascati, and he organized a very nice picnic for us. We really enjoyed that, and Claudio is a really nice guy to chat with. Can only recommend. Lunch restaurant was also very nice & tasty food. Wonderful time

We had a great tour experience with Claudio of Hidden Gems of Rome! Claudio is very knowledgeable of the history and explained everything very well! Even treated us to an amazing Gelato!! My wife and would highly recommend Claudio as your guide!!! Great tour experience with Claudio

Annette🇳🇴 Norway

We had a great start on our first night in Rome. Claudio took us around some part of the city center, and we got to ask questions about everything. Claudio even speaks Norwegian, so we kept the dialogue in this the whole time, which was really appreciated by the whole group. We got to see a lot, get the history told, taste pizza and have a glass of wine at a small, local bar. My best recommendation to Claudio :) Wonderful start in Rome

Claudio was great. He knows a LOT about his city, not just what you can read on the internet or in the guide books. He is funny, charming, intelligent, and his restaurant recommendations are absolutely fantastic. I am sure there are other great guides in Rome, but we will be contacting Claudio first always in the future. Thank you Claudio!Choose Claudio, you wont be disappointed.

Nous avons réservé un tour de 3 heures. Nous avons pas vu le temps passer. Claudio est un homme passionné par la culture et l histoire de sa ville. Il a su nous faire voyager et nous faire balader et découvrir des lieux où ne ne serions jamais allées sans lui. Merci Claudio pour ta gentillesse Super local 👌

Our family had lots of fun walking around Rome with Claudio, and getting a taste of true Roman foods. Fresh fruits at the market, hi Pizza at the Forno to local beer and wine, the most delicious cannoli and gelate, and an outstanding taste of porchetta and local cured meats, we loved every bite! Claudio has a kind, welcoming, easy-going personality, and was happy to recommend restaurants (he even called to make a reservation for us for the next) and show us some of the other historic sites, including beautiful churches, and Piazzas that he explained to us as well. Thank you Claudio for sharing your Rome with us!Evening Food tour with Claudio

We spent our last day in Rome getting away from the busy city and taking this trip out to the castle on the beach with Claudio. It was simply wonderful…calming…serene…and we had an excellent guide to spend the day with. Lunch was great and Claudio even made dinner reservations for us back in Rome when we returned which was fantastic! Claudio gave us tons of knowledge on Rome and the area and he gave us plenty of time to ourselves to enjoy the views. It was simply a perfect day! Awesome Getaway

While the time spent with Claudio certainly included Frascati and wine, this tour was so much richer than I ever expected. Claudio is an interesting, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable guide, and I found myself learning details of history, archaeology, geography, and culture — including food — that were all new to me. And the scenery is beautiful! The winery visit was delightful, with tastings of some excellent wines, and a visit to the vineyard and the ancient tunnels where the wines are aged. Afterwards we went to an authentic local restaurant where Claudio introduced me to typical local dishes and ingredients — and of course more wine. This was one of my favorite experiences of this year’s trip to Italy. I highly recommend both Claudio and this tour!An unforgettable experience

Nous avons eu une superbe excursion avec Claudio. Il nous a fait voir des petits trésors cachés de Rome ce qui est toujours apprécié lors d’une première fois dans une ville. Il nous a aussi fait voir les monuments historiques d’une autre façon. Ses explications étaient très intéressantes et pertinentes, il ne donne pas l’impression de réciter un livre d’histoire, au contraire! Le tour a dépassé nos attentes! Je suggère fortement Claudio et son tour de vélo, pour les classiques et les découvertes! De belles découvertes!

A beautiful bike ride with Claudio to discover the largest historic Roman avenue allowing trade with Greece, then some key historical sites in the city. Time passed very quicklyNice trip!

We took the Rome your Way Tour. Claudio welcomed us - 4 friends - warmly and showed us interesting places in the touristy area. Then we had a break with some wine and typical snack, before heading uptown, where we learned about the Italian history and discovered less touristy places. Only the end could have been beter. A great tour with a real Rock ‘n Roll Roman guy(de)!Rome, from downtown to uptown

We, my 14 year old son an I, went on a walk with Claudio. Knowing my son was mostly interested in food, he gave us plenty of tips we've been trying for the next few days. Besides, he showed us all highlights with some fun pieces of info. Loved it, thank you Claudio! Great tips

Claudio is the best guide you can find to explore Rome! He is a true Roman who knows all the secrets and stories of this amazing city. He will also give you great advice on where to eat and drink like a local. He is not only a knowledgeable guide, but also a fun person to hang out with 😊. His bike tour is a must-do, and I can’t wait to join his wine tour next timeA must do if you go to Rome

Claudio was from the beginning the best guy. We were 2 male friends who just wanted to get to know Trastevere and the local experience. We did that and more! He made us have a great evening with lots of tips for what to do and eat in the area. The trip to Rome got much better because of Claudio!Like meeting a friend in Rome

We enjoyed our tour with Claudio a lot. He is very friendly and humorous, speaks a perfect English and has a really great knowledge of Rome and its history. Claudio gave us a lot of information just a local can give you and it was so interesting to listen to his anecdotes. Thank you very much for the great time!!!!Perfect Rome-Experience

Claudio was awesome! Very mellow and talked with you, not at you. Learned a lot without feeling like it was a lecture, which was nice! It was like I had rekindled a relationship with an old friend. Genuine, friendly, very knowledgeable… Who could ask for more. Well done!Like an old friend!

Mr🇮🇹 Italy

Claudio was an excellent guide. Knowledgeable, friendly and courteous! Got to see the sites and get some information and a fair bit of exercise. We've been to Rome before, and we got see some places we hadn't been to, so that was great! He was easily accommodating when we asked for a couple e-bikes for a couple members in our group. If you need a guide, Claudio is the choice! Great experience to see around Rome

Jacob🇺🇸 United States

We had a fantastic day with Claudio. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about Rome but also very enjoyable to spend time with. Almost instantly you feel like you’re hanging with a friend not just a guide. He expertly guides you through the city and knows all the nooks and little places you’d never find on your own. We ended the day in a beautiful little Wine bar well off the beaten path and it was incredible. Definitely booking with Claudio again and would Highly Recommend. Fantastic day

I absolutely loved this tour with Claudio because it felt like meeting an old friend. He was extremely knowledgeable and mixed history with culture and anecdotes. Most importantly, for me, he has a great sense of humor! After the tour he recommended and booked a lovely local restaurant that made that day in Rome complete! I would for sure book Claudio again and would recommend him to my friends. Like meeting an old friend

I booked Claudio for my parents when they were visiting Rome. They were so impressed with the tour and thought Claudio was an amazing tour guide who was incredibly knowledgeable. Claudio personalised the tour to the places they wanted to see and they had the best time! They can't wait to get back to Rome to see Claudio again!! Amazing!!

We took a half tasting, half hidden gems exploring tour with Claudio and it was a great balance for us and an excellent way to start our vacation - we got to ask many questions about the city and got useful suggestions for planning the rest of our stay in Rome. It was like hanging out with your friend. And to be honest, we ended up meeting Claudios friends and spent fantastic time together at the local winery. Becoming a local

We'd the pleasure to have Claudio as our guide when we went to private winery tasting outside Rome. The trip was well designed and he was listening to our whises what we're looking for. I give my warmest recommendation to have Claudio as your guide. You'll not be disappointed! Rom and beyond

Sarah🇮🇪 Ireland

7 March 2023

We had a great day with Claudio who took us on quite the adventure through Rome at a reasonable pace. We were worried about the hills but managed them well. We decided the cycle back would be too much though and took the bikes back on the metro instead which I would highly recommend as you can spend lots more time in the city then. A fab day with a "few" hills!

My husband and I booked the 10 Tastings of Rome with Claudio and it was a great experience! He accommodated for my vegetarian diet throughout our walking food tour. We enjoyed every food place (pizza, bakery, cheese spot, fruit, wine etc.) that he took us to and learned so much about Roman landmarks and history at the same time. Claudio was friendly, courteous,knowledgeable and a great guide. We plan to have him as a guide for future trips to Italy if we can! Excellent Guide for food tour!
