I studied archeology, mainly Roman history and architectures, with a PHD in Middle Age, the medieval castles and churches are my favorite attractions, I have the license to teach History of Art in the high schools, but I always had the passion to show the beauty around me to the ones that are as me full of curiosity. Love to have fun with my clients, what they always say about me is that I am knowledgeable and entertaining, but more than this I love to learn by their comments how even little details can be important to transform a tour into a unforgettable experience. I am a guide in Rome since 10 years, and I am never tired to take guided tours through its amazing attractions. Rome is really unforgettable, take this chance to have tours that will introduce you in its history and art, and do not be worried to be bored with too many dates and names, I will lead you through streets, squares, fountains, monuments and museums telling you stories and anecdotes about emperors, popes and current daily life, enjoying the tour with you and supporting all your needs as best as I can. My tours are oriented to the best customer satisfaction, and will be my pleasure to adapt contents and itineraries accordingly to different needs, such as family tours, tours oriented to satisfy the curiosity of different cultures and religions, tours for people with different physical conditions and so on. Take the chance to have a tour in Rome with me, I was born and grow up here… and still in love with it! - Fully licensed guide for Rome and Vatican City, - Ph.D​. ​in Medieval Archaeology​, Rome, - Graduated in Classical Literature - Roman and Greek Archaeology, Rome - Licensed Teacher of History of Art in Public High Schools I am not a driver.

Overview of your Rome tour

If Rome is known as the eternal city the reason is that it was built multiple time. The point is that in several important locations for the history of the first Christianity, the medieval Basilicas reused the Roman ancient levels as foundations, and not only that. It happened also that newer churches substituted the older ones, just covering the previous walls. the result? A "lasagna" of different layers of daily life. Come with me to explore the underground of St Clement Basilica, a beautiful medieval structure dated back to the XII, above another medieval one built 600 years before, above roman blocks of the I century A. D. with a shrine dedicated to the God Myrta inside. We will visit the Roman Houses where lived and were buried in the IV century A. D. St John and St Paul, under the Basilica dedicated to the two saints. This tour will offer you a unique opportunity to "descend" the centuries trough the mysterious history of the Christian Rome.

Lia was a knowledgeable and experienced guide, and we truly enjoyed touring with her. This experience is ideal for travelers who have already seen many of Rome’s major highlights and are looking for something a bit different. After visiting many basilicas, they can start to feel similar—but St. Clement and Sts. John and Paul are uniquely distinctive and well worth exploring. Lia did a great job bringing both sites to life as she guided us through their fascinating underground layers. We appreciated both her insight and her company throughout the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to go beyond the typical top attractions in Rome and discover something more unique.
