My name is Rosanna and I was born and raised in Rome. Since my childhood I love art, history and travel, so I took tourism at high school. Then I moved to London, Paris and Seville to learn the languages and the culture and traditions of those countries. Back home I started my career as tour manager and I passed the exam issued by the Provincia di Roma to become an official Tourist Guide. I have been working as a guide in Rome for 15 years and I love to show to Italians and foreign visitors the Eternal City. I work with couples, families, groups and I am very glad to tell stories and make people familiar with the Italian art, culture, history and food. Every day is different thank to my guests enthusiasm because they want to see, hear and feel the astonishing art and history of this unique City, and discover the hidden corners. I can offer tailor-made tours in Rome with golf cars, van, bicycles and I would love to show you the surrounding villages such as Tivoli, Ostia Antica and the Roman Castles. I also speak French and Spanish and I am very flexible, so ask for me and let's organize a visit.

Overview of your Rome tour

The Vatican Museums are housed in the historic Papal Palace, a place where legendary artists such as Michelangelo and Raphael lived and worked, drawing inspiration from the remarkable classical art collections. As we explore the magnificent Upper Galleries, you’ll admire grand Renaissance tapestries originally created for the Sistine Chapel, as well as elaborately painted maps of Italy’s regions from the 16th century. Our tour continues to the Sistine Chapel, where you’ll encounter Michelangelo’s awe-inspiring masterpiece, The Last Judgment, a work that has fascinated visitors for centuries with its dramatic imagery and artistic genius. Finally, we reach St. Peter’s Basilica
