Half-day Tivoli escape from Rome with a guided coach ride to Hadrian’s Villa and Villa d’Este, plus UNESCO sights and included tickets.
“Beautiful, easy to get there !! Excellent guide and place to know!!! Unforgettable !!!! Beautiful scape !”
Rome golf cart half-day tour with minimal walking. See Pantheon, Colosseum, Trevi, and more, plus snacks and a local guide.
“Was more walking than riding in golf cart. A lot of history information. Hard to keep up with while walking.”
Guided half-day by train from Rome to Ostia Antica. See Roman port life, Baths of Neptune mosaics, amphitheater, and public washrooms.
“Alberto was a very engaging and friendly host who knew plenty about the site we were visiting”
Walk the Appian Way, visit Catacombs of San Callisto, and spot Roman aqueduct arches on a small-group countryside half-day from central Rome.
“The tour itself was good and the tour guide did a nice job….but they separated us in 2 vans with the guide in one van and most of us in the other. Most of the tour was in the vehicles and the headset did not catch most of it, like we caught one out of 3 words! The vehicle was also very hot and stuffy. Also not that depending on traffic it will take 30-60 min longer. Also meeting place was unclear. FYI - You want to be by the bus stop near metro even though the once across the street matches what they must.”
Evening 3-hour walk through Trastevere and Rome’s Jewish Ghetto, with Santa Maria church, synagogue exteriors, and local food tips.
“Very informative tour. We took this tour on our arrival date which gave us our bearings and the history of where we were staying in Trastevere. We had a little trouble finding our meeting spot but that may have been due to being up for about 22 hours!! We learned a lot that we wouldn't have normally known, i.e. the cat sanctuary. Our guide was full of interesting stories. We would recommend this tour.”
