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

When you visit Rome, a stop at one of Europe’s most remarkable art collections is a must. In the 17th century, the powerful Borghese family built a magnificent palace just outside the ancient walls to house their private museum. At its heart was Scipione Borghese, a passionate collector who, thanks to his immense wealth, gathered masterpieces by Sandro Botticelli, Raphael, Caravaggio, and Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Beyond the artworks, the palace itself is a masterpiece, with richly decorated ceilings, floors, and walls. The family’s influence lasted into the 19th century, when Napoleon Bonaparte arranged the marriage of his sister to Camillo Borghese. Visiting the Borghese Gallery feels like stepping back into the Renaissance and Baroque eras, where art, history, and fascinating stories come together in an unforgettable experience.
