Perfect One-Day Overview of Rome from the Chivitavecchia port - We had the best time touring Rome with Luca. He picked us up at the terminal about 8:30 am in his new . Our first stop was a beautiful viewpoint next to the Trastevere. We saw all the major sights, including the Coliseum, the Roman Forum and the Pantheon. Lunch was amazing. We'd asked Luca to choose a place for us so he reserved a table at a small family owned restaurant, L'angoletto Romano. Luca had ordered our shared meal ahead of time so when we sat down the red and white wines were on table and the dishes kept getting delivered, including lemoncello. Our huge lunch (more than we could eat) was very reasonably priced. The owners sat at a nearby table and we learned that they were very happy to see that we were enjoying our meal and obviously having a nice time. In the afternoon we visited a couple more places including Vatican City. We didn't have time to tour the cathedral but it was nice to see, in person, St. Peter's Square. We knew we were pressed for time with only one day in port but we were more than satisfied with how much we were able to see. We had plenty of time for the Coliseum, which we had purchased tickets for in advance online. We saw but didn't tour the Pantheon, maybe another time. We weren't expecting to visit Vatican City because of our time restraints, so that was a pleasant surprise. The famous Trevi fountain was surrounded by fencing since they were working on it so we didn't bother to get in the long line to throw a coin. We had a nice overview of the city's most famous landmarks without the hassle of driving, parking or bus/train schedules. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide and driver than Luca. We had a fantastic day and we owe much of that to Luca.

What an amazing day……a 6 star experience - We were a party of 12 on a cruise with 3 family friend groups of ages 11- 50+. From the start the experience was amazing with exceptional communication. Luca and Maurizio met us immediately outside the boat in 2 gleaming Mercedes vans with AC. The tour was incredibly well planned, taking in the key sites with excellent commentary geared to the range of ages in the group. They also incorporated a requested unscheduled stop with grace and charm. What we appreciated most was the attention to detail and the local knowledge from the key places to take superb photos to the fabulous lunch with local wine and delicious limoncello. Thank you for a magical and memorable trip to Roma. We highly recommend the trip.

Rome Shore Visit - Luca was an excellent driver. Whatever we wanted, he made it happen. He picked us up at the cruise terminal and drove us to the highlights of Rome and helped us navigate our skip the line tickets to the Vatican. He also arranged an authentic Italian lunch for us.

Luca the Amazing! - If you plan to do a tour of Rome and see as many sites as possible, in the most efficient manner, with the friendliest and happiest driver in Rome, then make sure you choose this tour with Luca! He seemed to have the key to the city! Could park anywhere, for as long as he wanted, and as close to the main attractions as he wanted. He was extremely knowledgeable, and made us feel like family for the day. He went above and beyond for the 7 of us.

We had the best day ever... - We had the best day ever with Gianluca! You can tell he loves his city and wants to show his guests the very best of it. He picked us up right outside the boat and dropped us off in the same spot. He was super knowledgable and had papers ready to explain certain things to us that we wouldn't have known otherwise. He really helped us get the most out of every stop. We wanted to enter the Colosseo so I made sure to message Gianluca before tickets opened to arrange with him our entry time. He was very helpful and I couldn't imagine doing Rome any other way. The cherry on top was the delicious gelato at the end of the day before our ride back to the port. I will recommend him to everyone I know going his way!
