Eccellente!! - Luca and his team were very easy to work with, they were very accommodating.
Massimo, our driver, was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. We only had 1 full day in Rome and I'm SO happy we chose Rome Private Excursions. We will definitely use them again!

Tour of Rome - Better than we imagined! - Luca and his company set up a wonderful full day tour for 4 of us. We had limited time so it was great! We got to see so much and the guide was fun and friendly! RPE also picked us up and took us to the hotel from the airport the day before and took us from port to hotel the day after! Will definitely book with them again!

Spectacular tour! - This tour was a wonderful way to end our time in Rome. Our driver and guide, Salvatore was so kind and accommodating. My mother in law has mobility issues and brought a portable wheelchair. He ensured she was comfortable at all times and tailored the tour to her needs. He is extremely knowledgeable and we appreciated the amount of history he provided and in such an enthusiastic way.
For the Vatican we choose to have a private guide and I’m so glad we did. Our guide Felvio was wonderful and made the tour so special for my mother in law. She was able make confession in the Sistine chapel and for sure was a surprise and highlight.
I highly recommend this tour company.

Book this! 10000/10, worth every penny - This tour exceeded our expectations tremendously. Very easy to communicate with tour company. We were picked up at the FCO airport in a comfy van with AC, tour guide was very easy to find outside of airport. Our tour guide, Michael, took us to all the Rome hot spots and gave us time to get out and explore. He would have taken us wherever we wanted, but we had no real itinerary. Micheal is from Rome and was so knowledgeable about the city and history. We had skip the line tickets to the Colosseum (definitely do that!). Would 100% recommend to anyone with a short time in Rome and/or to get a lay of the city at the beginning of your Rome stay.
