Shore Excursion during your Cruise: Private Tour W/Private transportation:

Hello! My name is Yevgen (Yev), and I would be delighted to welcome you to Rome. I was born in Kyiv and moved to Rome at the age of twenty. Half of my life has been spent in this extraordinary city, which I now proudly call home. Here, I completed high school, earned my degree in Art History, and became a licensed tour guide. During my university years, I had the privilege of interning at the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill, two of the most important archaeological sites in the world. That experience allowed me to deepen my understanding of ancient Rome and its remarkable heritage. I was also selected to guide visitors through the Palace of the President of Italy, the heart of the Italian Republic, where I gained a solid foundation in the history of Italy and its institutions. After many years of passionate study of Italian history, archaeology, and art, I am excited to share my knowledge and my love for the Eternal City with you. WHAT WE CAN EXPLORE TOGETHER Ancient Rome • The Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill • The Ancient Appian Way, the Roman Aqueducts, and the early Christian catacombs Vatican City • The Vatican Museums • The Sistine Chapel • St. Peter’s Basilica and St. Peter’s Square.

Day Trips Beyond Rome If you’d like to venture outside the city, I can arrange unforgettable visits to Hadrian’s Villa, the vast countryside retreat of the Roman Emperor Hadrian, and Villa d’Este, with its lush Renaissance gardens and spectacular fountains. Both are UNESCO World Heritage Sites located in Tivoli, just an hour from Rome.
