The highlights of Rome in a day - Our driver/guide was Marco. He did an excellent job allowing us to see everything possible in Rome including the Coliseum, Forum, Roman baths, Circus Maximus, etc while allowing us to site-see a bit on our own during lunch. As it was a Sunday, the Vatican was not available though Rome has so much to see that we were never bored. We recommend not only this tour but also Marco as your driver.

Highly recommended! - Emmanuel is the best tour guide and driver you could ever have! He’s the best. We were able to see everything in a day and just right on time. We didn’t encounter any issues or problem with this booking. They messaged us with a reminder and the driver information the day before the booked tour. Highly recommended! Fantastic tour guide.

Safe and secure - We had a delightful day with Luciano as our driver and guide. He listened to all of the places we wanted to see and made sure we got there. He guided us around St. Peter’s Square and made sure we didn’t miss any of the amazing sights there. A overall we felt very safe and well looked after. We were returned to our ship in perfect time. Overall a lovely experience.

Amazing all around - This experience was absolutely amazing! Emanuel was the BEST! He went above and beyond! He rushed us all over and we were able to see as much as possible! His English was great. He was flexible. He made stops for some folks to purchase last minute items before getting back on our ship and stopped for toilet breaks. When running a little late for our tour at the Vatican he rushed us there and personally walked us to the tour we were meeting! He went above and beyond and was amazing the whole day! Also easy to communicate with and there right where he said he would be. Highly recommend!

Great day. - This made getting from the port to our hotel, with our luggage, very easy while also allowing us to see the highlights of Rome. Our guide, Davide, was great. He even walked us to a lunch spot and made sure we were well taken care of.

Insider's View - Marco clearly knows his way around the city. We got close to some of the iconic areas and had plenty of time to do what we wanted to do. A special day.

Not Worth the Cost! - Tour promised an English speaking driver who would give history, points of interest, etc. Our guide could barely speak English! He would take us to a spot point where to go and wait on us. We had to google it if we had questions. We very quickly quit asking what certain buildings were when driving by them as he did not know or we could not understand him. We were so frustrated that we bailed 2 hours early. We are really wishing we would have taken a bus tour with a knowledgeable guide and saved the additional $500 that this tour cost us. Did not even receive guide pamphlet that is promised. Total bust!! Save your money!

Not as advertised… - What a disappointing experience. Saved up for years for this trip, and wound up with a driver (NOT a tour guide) who didn’t speak English. We were relying on the expertise of our driver to help to narrow down sites for our limited time in Rome, but just mostly got some points with “important building.” No further info given. Additionally, the car we were driven in kept dying at stop lights, and the transmission kept throwing us around the car if he drove too fast or up a steep hill. I think we were all concerned it might break down. Finally, he dropped us on the wrong side of the Coliseum, which was not helpful in making our appointment we were already late for. Our driver seemed to be a lovely person who was doing his best, but he simply was not up to the standards we expected, and was not consistent with the description Viator gives for this tour. Because of this, I would advise people to look at smaller companies with more selective standards for such an expensive tour.

This tour does NOT... - This tour does NOT include any guide or ticket. Only transportation, a driver driving you around. The only good thing about this tour is pick up from cruise terminal and drop off at the hotel. Too expensive just for pick up. Got pick up at 9:30am drop off my 4pm. Which less then 8-9 hours being advertised.
