I studied archeology, mainly Roman history and architectures, with a PHD in Middle Age, the medieval castles and churches are my favorite attractions, I have the license to teach History of Art in the high schools, but I always had the passion to show the beauty around me to the ones that are as me full of curiosity. Love to have fun with my clients, what they always say about me is that I am knowledgeable and entertaining, but more than this I love to learn by their comments how even little details can be important to transform a tour into a unforgettable experience. I am a guide in Rome since 10 years, and I am never tired to take guided tours through its amazing attractions. Rome is really unforgettable, take this chance to have tours that will introduce you in its history and art, and do not be worried to be bored with too many dates and names, I will lead you through streets, squares, fountains, monuments and museums telling you stories and anecdotes about emperors, popes and current daily life, enjoying the tour with you and supporting all your needs as best as I can. My tours are oriented to the best customer satisfaction, and will be my pleasure to adapt contents and itineraries accordingly to different needs, such as family tours, tours oriented to satisfy the curiosity of different cultures and religions, tours for people with different physical conditions and so on. Take the chance to have a tour in Rome with me, I was born and grow up here… and still in love with it! - Fully licensed guide for Rome and Vatican City, - Ph.D​. ​in Medieval Archaeology​, Rome, - Graduated in Classical Literature - Roman and Greek Archaeology, Rome - Licensed Teacher of History of Art in Public High Schools I am not a driver.

Overview of your Rome tour

Explore the myth of Rome with an archaeologist. Start the tour admiring the Colosseum, still standing after around 2000 years, where hunting games, gladiator combats, and capital executions took place for the entertainment of the Romans, I will search for you the arena floor and the undergrounds tickets (60% of possibilities accordingly to the number of people and the flexibility on the time of the visit). Reach then the Palatine Hill where from iron age evidences, it is possible to follow the development of the area up to the current time, really an unbelievable example of persisting use. Accordinghly with avaiabilities we will enter the Augustus's house with its lovely frescoes perfectly preserved and the palaces where the emperor lived. Visit the Roman Forum, the political and religious center of Rome. From here started all the streets that connected Rome with its empire, from here the destiny of million people were decided up to it collapsed. Too ambitious? Let's give our answer!

Lia guided our group of 7 and was great! Right on time funny, engaging, and most of all filled with knowledge and perspective of Rome. She gave us a very good picture of the Roman power structure and why things evolved as they did. She dealt with random inconveniences easily and guided us efficiently so we could spend the most time on important tour stops. She responded to all our questions promptly and knowledgeably Very pleased w our guide choice.

Lia was great. She not only knew the details but was also able to present the information in an informative and humanizing way. The tour we did was the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and Forum, ending at Trajan's column.

Our review of our Vatican tour spoke to her knowledge and sense of humor. All exceptional. In this tour, we really appreciated how solicitous she was in adjusting to our interests and priorities. What we saw was painted in an historical context we could readily understand. We highly recommend.

Thank you Lia for an amazing day! Your knowledge of the history and archeology of Rome really brought the past into a fuller understanding. From the beginning myths to the legendary characters, social life through the centuries, and the "lasagne" of the many layers of time buried and excavated I learned so much more than I ever had considered before spending the day with you. I am truly grateful that I leave the eternal city with deeper insights into the fascinating story of Rome.

We had two guided tours with Lia in Rome. During the first one, we had the pleasure to visit not only the main tourist sites we intended to see but also some hidden gems. It was exciting to see what the sites looked like originally from the well prepared handouts. We would have never found out and have never seen as much of Rome as we could with our funny, lively and amazing guide who spoke perfect English and Italian. The first tour was so successful, we also booked a second tour, to see the Vatican.
