For the last 15 years, I have been fortunate and honoured to present the treasures of the Eternal City to many tourists through my tours of this enchanting city. Rome continues to inspire me with its unique charm, its wealth of monuments, and especially the lesser-known attractions that are not on the main touristic paths. I always feel thrilled to witness the enthusiasm and joy in my guests’ eyes at the end of our tours! In the future, I intend to provide not only the traditional and most famous tours of the Colosseum, the Ancient Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and the Vatican Museums with the Sistine Chapel but also lesser-known routes, particularly for travellers who have visited the city multiple times. These will include places like the Doria Pamphilj Gallery, Colonna Gallery, and the Capitoline Museums, as well as Christian-related itineraries and some less touristy Roman neighbourhoods and charming small towns like Palestrina. If my calendar appears unavailable, please contact me anyway. I can organize private transportation by private car and driver. I provide pick-up and drop-off at the hotel or port via the driver. I’ll meet you at the meeting point. For easy communication on the day of the tour, I suggest downloading WhatsApp on your smartphone.

Overview of your Rome tour

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur of Ancient Rome with this unforgettable shore excursion. Your adventure begins at the iconic Colosseum, where you'll explore both the first and second levels, with the option to enter the Arena for a deeper look into the gladiatorial battles that once captivated the empire. Afterward, marvel at the majestic Arch of Constantine before heading to the Palatine Hill, where the remains of the Emperors' Palaces await. Discover the Domus Augustana and Domitian’s Palace, and take in panoramic views from the Domus Tiberiana terrace. Next, wander through the Roman Forum, where history comes alive. Admire the Arch of Titus, Temple of Julius Caesar, and Temple of Saturn. Visit the House of the Vestal Virgins, Basilica of Maxentius, and the Temple of Romulus (outside). The Temple of Antonino and Faustina, Arch of Septimius Severus, and the Curia—Roman Senate—complete this fascinating tour through the heart of ancient civilization.
