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.

A walk across the very center of the city in the footsteps of Caravaggio
Overview of your Rome tour
Caravaggio is the most groundbreaking Italian painter between late 1500s and early 1600s. He changed the way to depict nature and human beings. Born in Milan in 1571 He lived in Rome for most of his short and troubled life. He worked for both private collectors and the Church. Therefore, during this tour, we are going to discover Caravaggio' masterpieces, available in beautiful public churches such as Santa Maria del Popolo, Sant'Agostino and San Luigi dei Francesi, mostly located in the neighborhood where this Genius worked and broke the law. The masterpieces we are going to see are: The Conversion of St Paul and the Crucifixion of St Peter. The Madonna of Pilgrims. Stories of St Mathew: The Calling of St Mathew's, St Mathew and the Angel, The Martyrdom of St Mathew. All these works are displayed in churches, that inside have other masterpieces, and it would be a shame to miss. So, don't miss it!
