    Villa Adriana is one of the most important example of a palace of the imperial age. Built from the empereor Adriano, the villa reflects the architectural taste of its owner. After his death, the villa has been modified and beautify. Nowadays it has an enormous park with roman ruins, thermal baths and farmhouses.

    If you want to dedicate one day to a beautiful archeological site, Ostia Antica is perfect for day trip tours in Rome: a small town that has been built as the harbour of the city of Rome. Its ruins have been discovered starting from XIX century: its public buildings, private houses and farms can now help us understanding how everyday life was in the ancient age. It is possible to choose among five themed paths, according to the historical-cultural aspect in which you are mostly interested. You can walk among the Decumano, the ancient commercial street with marketplaces, public buildings, ways and places of production, or you can visit the Synagogue, the Mithraea the Christian Basilica, the Round Temple and the Capitolium.

    The Forum is the political, commercial and religious center, where there are the Baths and the Thermopolium. Via della Foce is the district of the river port, with cults and religious buildings, residential neighborhoods, houses and spas with pictorial remains and mosaics. In Porto Marina is finally possible to visit the domus, residential facilities, refreshments, sepulchral monuments.

You absolutely do not have to miss Frascati with the famous Villa Aldobrandini with its beautiful italian style garden. If you like Middle Ages, go to Grottaferrata and visit the greek abbey of San Nilo, founded in 1004 by monks coming from the Byzantine south of Italy.

Much more than wine and food

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.

Awesome time in Calcatta!

This day was honestly a highlight of our trip! Matteo was so thoughtful, and really let us jump into life as a local! We had amazing views, stopped and got some great local snacks and a pick me up coffee, and lively conversation all before even reaching Calcatta. Once we arrived, it was like going back in time and stepping into a local’s life there. No tourists or big gimmicks, just art, scenery, hidden restaurants and cats popping in and out of the alleys. The architecture is so cool, but definitely recommend wearing good shoes as you trek up those steps and dip into alleys. Gorgeous views are everywhere! The only reason I’m willing to spill the secret is because Matteo deserves the recommendation! 10/10

Wonderful trip in the countryside

We had a fabulous day with Pierpaolo. We saw amazing views . We enjoyed wonderful food and wine including strawberries and truffles in Nemi and great wine in Nemi and Frascati. Pierpaolo told us of the history of the area and was extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour if visiting Rome.

Exciting day outside of Rome!

We had a great day traveling to Calcata with Matteo. We had interesting conversations with Matteo about life in Rome and Italy and got along great with Matteo. We were disappointed that the town was pretty closed down the day we went on the tour. I would have moved around our tour schedule had we known this in advance, and we feel that our guide should have known this and perhaps advised us in advance since we booked months in advance. Despite this we had a great day with Matteo but a less flexible client may have been upset and disappointed to not see Calcata in full swing. We made the best of it and Matteo did great with finding alternative spots for lunch, as well as giving us choices to do lunch back in Rome so we give high marks for being fluid! Thank you!
