Hi there! Nice to meet you

Amandio

I am portuguese living in Rome with my italian wife and 2 kids. I have an immense curiosity, and like ancient roman playwriter Terence said "Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto - I am a human being, I regard nothing of human concern as foreign to my interests", so that rarely something doesn't interest me.

Our experience with Amandio was absolutely phenomenal! Despite a two-hour flight delay and major road closures due to the Giro d’Italia, he was incredibly flexible and accommodating. He reassured us he’d wait until we were ready, and true to his word, he was right outside our hotel when we arrived. Because of the street closures, Amandio offered us a few great alternatives to the original bike tour, and we decided on a walking tour instead. It was the best decision! Amandio is a walking encyclopedia! So knowledgeable, engaging, and fun to be around. His passion for Rome is contagious. He also took us to a local eatery tucked away from the tourist crowds, where we had the most delicious porchetta, pizza, and supplì. It was so good that we went back the very next day on our own! We truly wish we had booked another tour with him for the following day. He made our first day in Rome incredibly special. We can’t recommend Amandio enough. Don’t miss the chance to tour with him!Amandio, Our First Day in Rome Perfect!

My 12 year old son and I had the most amazing morning with Amandio, zipping all around the city on e-bikes, learning about the history and culture of Rome in such an exciting and energising way. Forget long queues and boring guides, this is the way to make Rome come alive! Fantastic way to get the essence of Rome

One of Italy’s best! This was our third tour with Amandio, and once again, it was a highlight of our trip. No guide we’ve had has been better with our kids—he has a rare gift for connecting with all ages and turning what could be a stressful day into a smooth, fun, and meaningful experience. He’s energetic, patient, and incredibly flexible. We were enjoying ourselves so much that we kept extending…and he cheerfully stayed with us all day, even through the museums at the end. Absolutely amazing!

Amandio was absolutely amazing! He was very knowledgeable, funny and made us feel so welcome and comfortable. We would 100% come back and have him show us around other parts of Rome. Can’t emphasize enough how much we appreciated him! One of the best things we’ve done this vacation!Everything was perfect! 10/10!!

Amandio was so awesome! He took us on an incredible bike tour of Rome and was so great with our kids too. They just loved him! We used E Bikes for the first time, which were so fun, and he helped us get comfortable on them. Then he showed us some places we haven't been in Rome which was incredible too. We ended with some delicious food, coffee and gelato and feel like we made a new friend. Thank you Amandio!Amazing tour of Rome with Amandio

Nuestro más sincero agradecimiento a nuestro guía Amandio por brindarnos una experiencia inolvidable por las bohemias calles del Trastevere. Cada parada fue un deleite para los sentidos, no solo por la increíble gastronomía, sino también por las historias y anécdotas que compartió con nosotros con pasión, entusiasmo y humor. Amandio, nos hizo entender que esta ciudad no sólo tiene un pasado fascinante, sino que ha sido el origen de mucho de lo que atribuimos a otros. Todo comienza en Roma ;) Gracias por tu simpatía y por hacernos descubrir el auténtica alma romana!Trastevere de la mano de Amandio

We had the best day with Amandio! My kids, ages 4, 9, and 13 all loved him. He really went the extra mile to make sure they were all entertained and happy. We rode e-bikes through the streets of Rome while Amandio told us stories and provided the history of what we were seeing. Highlights included a visit to the colosseum, drinking water from the fountains to become real Romans, and food stops allowing us to taste the best pizza, arancini, and gelato Rome has to offer. Having a one-on-one guide always makes for a great day, but Amandio really gave us so much more!Book the Tour with Amandio!

We had THE BEST time with Amandio! You will not regret this tour. Amandio is friendly, great with children, fun, and so kind! He kept our young kids (ages 4, 8, 11) very engaged on an exciting, informative, off the beaten track tour of Rome! Trust Amandio and you will “have the best day of your life” as my 8 year old declared! Book this tour!!!!

We are a family of 3 who booked Amandio for a 3 hour e-bike tour of the city. Amandio is incredibly knowledgeable and made the 3 hours fun and enjoyable. We’d highly recommend him for a tour guide if the city. Great tour guide and way to see Rome
