I am an Expat from the United States, I have been blessed to live and guide through this beautiful country called Italy for the past 22 years. My first love and city mastered was the Eternal City of Rome, where I have lived and taught an English Master's program at UET. The University of European Tourism is located outside the Papal walls of Vatican City. I enjoyed teaching and being around the students very much, their youth is contagious. As I've traveled around the entire country, I've discovered the beauty in each region, as well as the wine and culinary wonders. My guiding experience is throughout Italy's Regions, as a National Driver Guide. My areas of expertise include the hillside medieval towns that are nestled in-between the Apennine Mountains. During my tours, I explain the history of Italy and make certain that you have the opportunity to experience all of the local monuments, as well as the iconic art and historical culture. My guiding is based on the TRUE ITALIAN EXPERIENCE. The Slow Food Movement, which they call the zero kilometer touring started in Italy because of how the food is prepared and my tours will take you to taste it all, fresh cheese, the award winning wines and truffle pasta. . . not to mention the limoncello in Sorrento after a day in Pompei. I have been blessed with a gift when it comes to guiding children and the disabled throughout this country. Nothing is a challenge for me and I enjoy seeing each of these places with people who thought they would never get there, life is meant to be lived! I look forward to hearing from you and booking our special excursions together.

Overview of your Rome tour

On this tour we will explore Eternal Rome within the footsteps of Emperors and Gladiators. I will pick-you up from your location and drive you to the Colosseum, built in 79 AD. I will share with you ancient tales and stories about the Gladiators that were trained and fought their battles to stay alive, the Emperors who ruled the Roman Forum and the day to day Roman life all while you are taking breathtaking pictures. After the Colosseum we will enjoy a fabulous lunch on the terrace with a beautiful view of the Colosseum. After lunch we will experience the Arc of Costantine and you will walk on the same rocks where the Caesars walked. At the end we can walk back to the car and drive to your location after gelato.

We only had a few hours in Rome before picking up a rental car, but wanted to at least see the Colosseum. Caron picked us up from the train station in her car and made sure our bags were safe in her trunk in a garage where she knows the caretaker. She had a table reserved on a rooftop w/a spectacular view of the Colosseum for a quick, but amazing lunch! She got us past the lines w/an informative, but efficient tour. Caron's connections were invaluable and she was delightful! Don't hesitate to book!!!

My family of four(two teenage girls) loved our time with Caron. Best tour guide ever! We did Rome by night ( by car) and the following day Caron toured us around the Pantheon, Colosseum, and Castle d'angelo. Plus the Trevi fountain. Even though it was scorching hot, Caron made it all work smoothly with skip the line tickets and stops in bistros with A/c plus gelato and prosecco and Moscow mules. Can't wait to return for more tours with Caron. Girls were thrilled— said Caron made the day! An A++tour!

Caron is an incredible tour guide and she is excellent with children. Even though my three children (13, 11 and 6) were jet lagged, having just arrived in Rome from an overnight trip from the US, she managed to turn a potentially challenging afternoon tour into a Roman adventure that enchanted the children. My littlest one said that the afternoon spent with Caron was the best part of our trip to Italy. I would strongly recommend Caron as a tour guide. We will definitely book her again!
