I'm a Licensed Roman Guide with a background in Architecture, but, first of all, I'm a traveller like you! I'm able to put myself in your shoes and suggest the best photo spots, since I'm a Travel Photographer as well! With me, you'd be able to discover highlights and hidden gems of Rome; I offer both tours in the city centre and outside of the city walls. My visits are more architecture-oriented, but I like to give a comprehensive overview, from historical insights to food tips. I love admiring narrow lanes while I'm having a gelato! I was born and raised in the Eternal City and, after experiencing life in the UK and in Germany, I'm back to my roots again. After getting a Master's Degree in Architecture, I've realized that the everyday life of an Architect didn't fit neither my expectations nor the artistic and exciting topics I studied at my University. Therefore, step by step, I've moved to the travel field, where I truly belong. In 2014 I inaugurated my Sustainable-Travel and Photography website where I share my reportages with a taste for the unusual, from Rome to the Polar Regions (Arctic and Antarctica)! I love going beyond the surface and capturing the soul of places. This project gave me such good vibes, that I understood that it was time for a change. A couple of years later, I've gained my Tour Guide's license and now I'm here to help you create wonderful memories. Can't wait to share Rome with you! - I hold a Master's Degree in Architecture from "La Sapienza University of Rome", but I have also studied in Germany (Bauhaus Weimar and TU Darmstadt). - I am a licensed guide and I have got both the Vatican and the Colosseum pass. - I have collaborated with Nikon, Lonely Planet and Financial Times! - I have published a travel book in Italian about Antarctica, called Antarktikós I don't offer pick-up by car, but I can arrange an official driver for you, if necessary.

This tour in the centre of Rome is suitable both for first time visitors as well as for those who are already familiar with the Eternal City. This is a great way to have an overview of this city in a short amount of time: from ancient Rome to the Baroque, from art to architecture, from Roman street food to everyday life spots. As an architect, I'd love explaining the Pantheon to you, which is the best preserved ancient Roman monument in the world. It should be noted that entrance to The Pantheon costs 5euros/adult +1,5 euros reservation fee. You can either fix the balance in cash or send me a refund on my Paypal. Please, consider also that the Pantheon is a church, it follows that it will be closed for service for a couple of hours during weekends and we should modify our itinerary to include it. To visit churches we should cover both our knees and shoulders. Thanks!
