The charm of an unexpected place - The visit I really liked, and 'was a unique opportunity to introduce my guests and to know myself of the places of Rome of unsuspected charm. Convenient meeting point in the center of Rome and the opportunity to make the transfer. I'm going to take other friends to visit Rome because it's out of the ordinary and it's absolutely fascinating

Excellent Experience with Touristation and Alessandro - Our experience with Touristation was exceptional from start to finish, and I highly recommend their services to anyone visiting Rome. We booked a tour to the catacombs of St. Callistus, which are located outside of the city center. While I’m usually not a fan of organized tours, this was the best option for exploring such an iconic site. The logistics were handled seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy the journey without any worries.
The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly our driver, Alessandro. He wasn’t just a driver—he was an entertainer and a proud Roman ambassador. Alessandro went above and beyond to engage with the group, sharing fascinating stories about Rome’s history and pointing out hidden gems that tourists often overlook. His energy and enthusiasm made the trip even more memorable.
For anyone looking to experience a well-organized, enjoyable, and insightful tour outside of the typical tourist spots in Rome, Touristation is a fantastic choice. And if you’re lucky enough to get Alessandro as your driver, consider yourself in for a real treat. Five stars for Touristation and a 10/10 for Alessandro!

Successful excursion - This tour was very interesting and we were chauffeured on a private shuttle bus and did not have to walk from the catabombs to the next bus stop like some other groups.
The interpreter was extremely nice!!!!

Tourist trap - Don't bother, absolute rip off. Basically you're paying a massive fee just to be driven between 2 places. Do yourself a favour and just pay ticket price at the venue.
