Thanks to Gilberto, we had a fantastic day in Rome. - We travelled with our boys (16 & 13) from the cruise ship for a day with Gilberto in Rome. The advice and support we received from Gilberto and Julia from his team beforehand was excellent. We agreed in advance when to book which sightseeing tours so that the programme could be worked through well. The day with Gilberto was wonderful and we learnt a lot about Rome. Gilberto explained everything important about the city and its history in the best German during the trip. Thanks to his licence, we were able to drive right through the narrowest streets to the sights. Thanks to the free water provided in the car, we were able to withstand the 38 degree temperatures. We visited many of the city's important sights in 7 hours: Victorianum (at the top on the viewing terrace), Colloseum, Forum Romanum, Pantheon (all from the inside), Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, St Peter's Basilica from the inside and the Pope's tombs. In between, Gilberto recommended a great restaurant for a Roman lunch. On the way back to the ship we were tired but super happy! Thank you dear Gilberto for a wonderful day :)

Perfect Day in Rome - Everything about our experience was A+! I would first like to thank our tour guide and driver Marco for the best possible experience for our group of 8. He was so kind and patient while he toured us through the busy streets of Rome and was so knowledgeable about all the attractions. Marco is a genuinely nice guy who loves what he does! And a huge thanks to Julia for answering my many many emails and questions. She always helped me figure out all the details to make the tour perfect for our group! If you are looking for an alternative to the pricey cruise ship excursions, this is the way to go. I highly recommend Discovery Tours and will definitely use them for future travels.

Rome Discovered! - Our party of 4 arrived by cruise ship at the port for Rome. I had previously arranged this trip before we left UK. We were met by our driver Livio who gave us a very friendly welcome. We then drove to Rome to see all the places of interest. These were brought to life by Livio whose knowledge of the history and love for the great city and for Italy is tremendous. Three of our party have difficulty with walking (steps and slopes etc.) but Livio overcame all this by taking us close to the places of interest. (The use of our UK Blue Badge is also a great help for parking without being moved on). He also took us to a local restaurant for lunch at far lower costs than the tourist ones. His driving was first class and we felt very safe. Nothing was too much bother for him and he looked after us all during the visits to busy places of interest. A really great Company to use and Gilberto the owner arranges everything so well. We all had an enjoyable experience in Rome and look forward to going back next year when we will again use this first class service. The vehicle like its driver was immaculate. Do try this experience and have a wonderful visit to Rome.
