My name is Micaela, born and raised in Rome by parents who were tourists themselves in Italy and decided to live here!! They were always talking different languages to me! As a result I got a degree in foreign languages, and I travelled a lot for pleasure and for working, as a flight attendant first, as a tour leader in Europe and as an Interpreter later. Traveling I also discovered my deep passion for photography, art, history and. . . talking! So I decided to study all I could find about Rome: Archeology, History of art, Mythology, Literature, famous families, Roman battles, Roman entertainments, even oil Painting to understand better art. After having obtained the State license of Tour Guide in 2010, I started guiding friends, and foreigners in private or in little groups. . . Today my job is really what I love: meeting people in their holiday, relaxed and curious willing to have a great time! It is really rewarding to me to see my new and old customers on tour beginning to appreciate my amazing city with new eyes, and with the same love I have for Rome. I try to give the best of the visit going on the less beaten streets or showing sites that are only known if you are a native of Rome - even a food tasting or a little underground visit, because there is more to Rome than the Vatican and Colosseum. Every stone here has a hidden story to tell, every spot has 27 centuries of history and I collected anecdotes on Roman Emperors and Cardinals. Besides Italian, I am fluent in English, French and I also talk a little Spanish. Combined with my intimate knowledge of Rome, I will make your visit a smooth and satisfying experience. . . something truly special, a life time memory. I always worked as a freelance tour guide, I do prefer this solution not to became an object of the more commercial tourism. However generally my job is working by word of mouth. 1997 - Interpreter school of Rome, Italy (Language Degree) 2006 -Master in Archeology and Art History 2010 - Licensed Tourguide of the Province of Rome 2012 - Vatican educational operator

Discover the old city like Pompei but not so far!
Overview of your Rome tour
The ancient city Port of Rome Ostia, is considered to be one of the world's greatest marvels. it is just a 30 minute drive from Rome and it became a must-see for many visitors who don't have time to go to Pompeii (near Naples). The excavations led to discover an intact roman town nearly as well preserved as Pompeii with houses, thermal baths, a theatre, and temples dedicated to local and oriental gods; here is also Europe's most ancient synagogue. Strolling amidst the ancient buildings is really picturesque and you will discover how wealthy the Romans were 2000 years ago!
