Our favorite tour! - We took a walking Rome history & food tour from Laura and Carlo very recently. We absolutely loved the tour, we highly recommend them; they are wonderful guides and they are two lovely people! Laura and Carlo introduced us to so many interesting aspects that we probably wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Their warmth and hospitality made the tour feel like a leisurely stroll with dear friends through the heart of Rome. It was evident that they both share a passion for Roman history, architecture, and food. This was a labor of love for them and we were fortunate to share in it for a few hours. There are countless details and cherished memories from our time with them that it would take many paragraphs to fully convey our experience. Laura is a university educated architectural historian, and with her extensive knowledge she shared much about Rome’s past and architecture. As a seasoned chef, Carlo picked out some of the best restaurants and shops along the way to provide us with samples of some of the most delicious Italian food. This has significantly increased our love of Italian cuisine. Laura and Carlo, we look forward to seeing you again, thank you for a wonderful experience, it was the highlight of our time in Rome.

Must do tour - Really wonderful experience. Laura has a great understanding of the local architecture. Claudio knows the local food. Together they are great. They were particularly great with our teenage children and elderly mom. We went a little over time and Claudio continued the tour with a smile, I highly recommend this tour. A highlight of our trip for sure.

Perfect “Rome in a day” Tour - Laura and Carlos were the best duo! We really felt like we got a great perspective of Roman food, culture, and history. Amazing way to try different foods and hit a lot of the historic sites.

Perfect in every way - We signed up for this at the last minute and were so glad we were able to take the tour. The guide walked us around the main areas of Rome tasting food relating to the area and history of the area. Talked about the intersection of food and different times in Romes history. Excellent!!

Best value and lots of fun! - This trip is mazing! Our tour guide is Carlo and Laura. Both are very knowledgeable and entertaining. Meet up at the Obelisk in Piazza Popolo was on time. Smiling faces greeted us. We were nervous being our first time and scared. Laura immediately made us comfortable. Carlo's choices of traditional food are on point. Wonderful tastes and culture story behind each food. He was very patient with us as the group starts to wonder a bit with many attractions, but he kept feeding us! Lastly a great service about Rome history. Laura as an architect was able to breakdown history in a simple easy to understand with some humor and fun! I really love this tour and was highlight of our trip in Rome. This was last minute add to our trip and did not disappoint for the value/cost of the tour! I highly recommend.

Personalized Tour - Like Having Friends Show You Around a New City - We were able to meet up with Carlo and Cindy at the agreed upon spot very easily. We were very surprised when we realized it was a personal tour, no other couples/families, which made it that much more interactive and personalized in nature. If you are doing a morning tour (10am), I would recommend skipping breakfast. There were 4-5 stops along the way of delicious snacks to try (espresso & croissants, street food sampler, suppli, etc). You cover a lot of distance during the trip, getting to just chat and see all of the major monuments/sights within 3 hours. Cindy and Carlo were very willing to take photos and ensure you had the most memorable time. Overall, highly recommend for a fun and relaxing way to see/experience Rome.

Best Food Tour guide we have ever Experienced. - Carlo made the Ancient Rome come alive for us. His diagrams and descriptions were so very important to understanding the wonder of what the Romans created over centuries. His historical knowledge was extensive and he shared many wonderful stories. We enjoyed our Food Tour ! My kids loved our day with Carlo. He was full of information and added enough humor to keep my children engaged and entertained. The food was yummy ! Would highly recommend him because he is Professional, Friendly

We saw the best of Rome! - Oh my, where do I even start. I had just gotten the kids settled into the hotel and realized we were facing down 2 days in Rome with nothing planned! By some stroke of luck, I came across this miracle Tour !! The booking process was so easy and stress-free, and when we got there, we were met with a smile from Carlo that just wiped all of our worries away – we were in safe hands for sure! Ice cream galore to keep the kids happy and plenty of delicious snacks for me and the hubbie. We got to see plenty of sights we never would’ve visited on our own such as Piazza del Popolo and passed by the Trevi Fountain all the way to the Roman Forum, getting a little history lesson along the way while learning the secrets of the city (Thank you, Carlo!) Honestly, we haven’t stopped talking about it since and keep looking for something similar in every city we visit. Nothing compares.
