Ciao! My name is Romina, and I am a licensed guide with a degree in Ancient Greek and Roman archaeology and art history. I was born and raised in Le Marche, a region of central Italy. I graduated from the University of Perugia in 2000 and then moved to Rome for the love of my husband. I started working as an expert guide for school groups at the excavations of Ostia Antica, a place I consider my paradise. This experience led me to become an enthusiastic, qualified guide of Rome. I love art and history, but also food and wine. I adore ancient ruins, walls, and bricks—that’s why Rome is my perfect place. I love its monuments, churches with unexpected art treasures, Baroque squares, museums, and archaeological sites, as well as its narrow streets and lesser-known corners, its gardens, and its more modern neighborhoods. I never get tired of the “Eternal City”; I never stop learning—Rome always has something new to reveal. I would like to share my passion with everyone who wants to experience it. My tours are suitable both for tourists visiting Rome for the first time and for those who have already been here. In addition, if you would like to experience the beautiful surroundings of Rome, I offer tours to Tivoli, ancient Ostia, and the Roman Castles. I am used to working with both groups and private individuals. I am very flexible and friendly with adults and children. All the tours I guide are customizable. Get in touch with me, and let’s talk about it! Qualifications and Experience - Degree in Greek and Roman archaeology and art history, University of Perugia - 5 years of experience as a didactic guide in Ostia Antica - 17 years of experience as an officially licensed guide of Rome and its surroundings. If my calendar appears unavailable, please contact me anyway. I can organize private transportation by private car and driver. I provide pick-up and drop-off at the hotel or port via the driver. I’ll meet you at the meeting point. For easy communication on the day of the tour, I suggest downloading WhatsApp on your smartphone.

Overview of your Rome tour

This is one of the most beautiful Museums in the world both thanks to masterpieces displayed and location. Only a set number of people, 360, are allowed inside at any given time, therefore, it's relatively quiet most of the times yet not easy to book. With us you can! The Borghese Museum contains the Cardinal Scipione's private collection of paintings and statues. In the early XVII century He had this building built to display masterpieces that he had rapaciously accumulated during his short life. There are works by artists such as Caravaggio, Titian, Canova, Domenichino, Lanfranco, Raphael, Botticelli and many others. There are extraordinary sculptures by Bernini such as Apollo and Daphne, the Rape of Proserpine, the David and the sexy Paolina Bonaparte by Antonio Canova. After the 2 hours tour in the Museum at your convenience I'll take you for a relaxing walk through the Borghese gardens up to the lake or the Pincio terrace where you there is a wonderful view of the city.

Romina was fantastic and just so personal. Her knowledge of the Vatican history went beyond just local interest and explained how the country grew from the experiences of the different Popes and how that shaped the Vatican into what it is today. She was very patient with my 12 year old and took back ways to ease the crowded areas. She just had an infectious personality and was well respected by officials in the Vatican. I would definitely recommend her a Vatican tour guide.

What a lovely day with Romina. Our first tour guide was unable to give the tour so Romina filled in. She is a delight. We learned so much. We had a diverse group and she paced our tour so well. Her knowledge of the archeological site was incredible and she shared this in such an easy to understand way. We appreciate that she took the time to meet all our needs on the tour; including a trip to the pharmacy for grandma. Romina is a wonderful guide and we would recommend her tours to all. Thank you for a wonderful day. We really enjoyed our time and learned so much!
