Hello, my name is Alessandra and I was born and grew up in Rome - a true local! I graduated in 1995 with a degree in Art History and have worked in art communication ever since. In developing didactic projects I've collaborated with Universities, Museums and Government Agencies. Most importantly, I spent several years at the MACRO (Museo Arte Contemporanea Roma) followed by even more years at the Trajan Markets (Imperial forums Museum). So, as you can see my interests in art range from the far past to the immediate present. For the past seven years I've worked as a private tour guide and I love it. I believe a walk through Rome is a walk through time, from the earliest settlement on the Palatine to the still busy artisan neighborhoods, from the Christian churches to the Jewish Ghetto. I specialize in tailor-made tours for first time or repeat visitors seeking more in depth knowledge of the city. I enjoy working with families and children and have had great experiences with tourists who have mental or physical disabilities as well. ". . only in Rome do you really get to know Rome. . " J. W. Ghoethe Italian Journey, 1786-1788. Strolling through this ever surprising city aided by maps, drawings, photos and writings of each historical period, we'll penetrate and truly experience Rome! I am licensed tour guide of Rome with a degree in Art History . I spent several years at the MACRO (Museo Arte Contemporanea Roma) followed by even more years at the Trajan Markets (Imperial Forum Museum) In December 2018 I successfully completed the course: "Fundamentals of Extraordinary Tour Leading" I can organize a customized tours (full day or half day) with luxury private car and driver.

Overview of your Rome tour

Rome was built layer by layer over the centuries, We could say that it is like an enormous wonderful "Lasagna"! A clear example is at Saint Clemente's Basilica. Beginning in the 1st century A. D different buildings have been built one on top of the other. Walking down almost 45 feet in depth, I will make you travel back in time as in a time machine! We reach the Colosseum, the symbol of the empire, where games of great popular appeal, such as hunts and gladiatorial fight took place. We visit the Roman Forum, the centre of public life for over a millennium from the foundation of Rome to imperial time. Here are the ruins of the main political, religious and representative buildings. We climb the Palatine, the hill where Rome was founded, here are the massive remain of Imperial Palaces. I worked several years at the Imperial forums Museum, I will help you get your bearings and discover these wonderful places!
