Professional and personalized service. Exceptional in so many ways. - What a fun and informative way to have an introduction to Rome. As a scholar in local history with his experienced and enthusiasm Ferdinando walked us to Rome's significant fountains, and monuments. His insights and knowledge provided a delightful and memorable walk in Rome. I would highly recommend Rome in Tours to anyone seeking an informative and fun guide to Rome.
