Bado met us on time and was prepared for an informative tour. He knew how to get us into the colosseum quickly and he knew when to share information with us. He didn't overwhelm us with facts and he answered our questions clearly. Bado has lots of knowledge and a skill for sharing it. We had a great time.Humour and information combined

I booked Bado sort of last minute (2 days beforehand) and I’m so glad I did! He is such an interesting man, speaks 5 languages, is extremely knowledgeable and informative. We had a wonderful tour of the Coliseum that was just the 3 of us which felt so much more personalized and so reasonably priced in comparison. I highly recommend him as a guide. Good luck on your Masters Thesis Bado! Bado is the best

We booked Bado for a city walk guided tour, with our 2 kids, aged 7 and 15, while we were visiting Rome for the first time. Firstly, Bado is really friendly and so easy to chat to. He balanced history, culture, architecture and story-telling perfectly. It wasn't too much info so as to overload the kids and he was so happy to answer their questions and pick up on what interested and engaged each of them. We covered a lot of ground, all the 'showstopper' moments (Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Roman Forum) and stopping regularly along the way for views you might not get on a larger more generic tour, and of course breaks for gelato and snacks (crucial when touring a city with kids!) This kind of personalised pace is something you simply cannot get when joining a big group. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Bado!Super Experience with Bado!

Bado was an excellent tour guide. He was very friendly and informative and took time to explain things to our two children - which is not easy as they are 7 & 15 years old. His knowledge of Rome and relaxed manner was perfect for us. We would recommend him very highly! Thanks Bado from all of us…Excellent Bado

Bado was so great with our group of 3. We wanted to set something up specifically for my son's interest in philosophy and the roots of democracy. Bado was such a pleasure as our host and tour guide. He catered the tour to our interests. His english was perfect and his personality and manner as a tour leader were a 10 out of 10. Loved every minute. Our 21 year old son said he thought it was the best tour he has been on. Thanks Bado!Perfect experience!

The young architect who showed us around the city, Bado, was wonderful! He was charming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. His English was excellent and he was patient and careful in answering our questions. He clearly loves both Rome’s history and its present day. The three hour tour we took was the ideal length. We saw about 10 different sites and Bado explained their significance and relationship to each other in clear but not overwhelming detail. We are so glad we took this tour!Wonderful tour with knowledgeable guide

Bado is a great guy. He knows a lot about the city's history and architecture and gave us some tips and tricks about places in Rome. I recommend this tour as one of the best we had in Rome for architecture lovers! Great experience
