Anna, the perfect walking companion - Anna was an excellent and knowledgeable companion for a walk through the city, Jewish Ghetto and Trastevere. The rest of the visitors did not come, so we ended up with an unplanned private tour and Anna customized her planned walk based on our interests on the spot. She chose unique key locations to make our stops explaining in detail and answering all our questions - also those of our kids aged 15 and 17. Her attitude, her smile and her English were also highly appreciated. Thank you for everything Anna and good luck with your future endeavours!

Rome Jewish ghetto tour - Yosef was a fabulous tour guide. He was quite knowledgeable about the history of the Jewish ghetto and the surrounding areas, bringing this colorful and sometimes tragic history to life in an engaging and compelling narrative. I heartily recommend taking a tour with Yosef!

Exploring Hidden Treasures with the Whole Family (Toddler friendly) - This tour was absolutely fascinating! We thoroughly enjoyed the walk, and our guide Fabiana was incredibly insightful and informative, bringing history to life with her storytelling. The small, intimate group made the experience feel personal and engaging. Even with a toddler in tow, the tour was smooth and enjoyable—Fabiana’s thoughtful approach ensured everyone, young and old, could soak up the rich history. It was truly an unforgettable experience!

Not great - Terrible tour, perhaps because there were only 3 of us on the tour and the “tip” that we were expected to give was not to be sufficient to spark the guide’s enthusiasm for showing us around. Firstly, the guide was late to arrive leaving us to wonder if we had the right location and having to call the tour company. In the Jewish ghetto, we were told some facts but we had been expecting stories that could have brought history alive (as noted in some of the reviews from guests who obviously had better guides). We seemed to constantly backtrack in the area always returning to the entrance giving the impression of a very disorganized tour. She did not provide any history of Trastevere other than pointing out where the old and new neighborhoods begin and end. Everyone on the tour wondered what is so special and picturesque about the area because there was nothing to see. She did bring us into a basilica at the end of the tour and pointed out some of the features of the mosaic floor but other than that and that it was owned by the Vatican, we didn’t get any other info. This tour’s price is misleading - the fee paid is only a booking fee and the tour guide explained that a tip was expected before we began as she was not paid by the tour company. Overall very disappointing.
