Fantastic quick tour of Rome! - We had an absolutely wonderful tour! With only about 7 hours on a cruise stopover, we were able to see the catacombs, the colosseum (including the interior), St Peters square, the Trevi fountain, and SO MUCH more. Winding through the small downtown streets and seeing the city view from an elevated viewpoint were highlights. We learned so much from the excellent commentary from Michele, our very personable driver/guide. We were picked up and dropped off on schedule. We highly recommend this tour company.

Rome in a day - This is the best way to see as much of Rome as possible when you are only in port for one day! We had skip the line tix for the Colosseum and the Vatican. We also chose to have a guide for the Vatican which was a good choice. Our driver, Francisco, was great and we thoroughly enjoyed our day!

The Tribe in Rome - This was an amazing tour. We were able to customize it to see all of the attractions we selected. Coliseum, circus Maximus, Trevi fountain, a private guided tour of the Sistine chapel and Vatican. Our drivers went above and beyond to show us everything and even called ahead to order our lunch so we could gain extra time. We will definitely be back and book again!

Highly recommend this tour especially with Sal! - Our tour guide, Sal, was extremely knowledgeable and his energy for this amazing city was absorbed by our entire family. We can not rate Sal as a private tour guide high enough! The places visited were extremely busy, but we were thankful Sal could negate through the craziness and get us where we needed when we needed. Sal showed us parts of the city we didn’t know existed and we are grateful for this. We had a little hiccup with tickets to the coliseum, but that was sorted out after the tour, with prompt service. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

Excellent experience - Our tour with Sal was amazing! He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We had a great time visiting all of the sights in Rome and with Sal's experience getting around the city, that made it so much more enjoyable and easy for our small private group. Highly recommend this tour group!

Rome in a day - We were promptly greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable driver, Antonio. As a lifelong resident of Rome, his knowledge of the city and its history was invaluable. He knew the right amount of time at each location to maximize our enjoyment and not to become bored. We had many questions about the history of the city and he's was able to answer every one. We felt like we made a friend who shared his country with us.

Highlights of Rome and the Vatican - I have to say I have experienced many excursions in all my years and Max gave us an outstanding day of history, professionalism, polite and prompt service. We were able to experience some of the highlights of Rome plus the Vatican but it is very obvious that as they say Rome wasn’t built in a day so lots more to see. Max suggested a pizza stop and that pizza was awesome and so reasonable.
I can highly recommend Max first and then the tour. He made it very informative and enjoyable

Taking in a lot in a Short amount of time - The overall experience was great. We were able to get in as much as possible and with the wealth of knowledge showcased by our driver and the tour guide, we came back with so much more than expected. Being able to get dropped off close to the sites we were visiting was also a big plus. There is much to see and such a small time but our driver managed to make sure we had time for lunch and gelato. It is a beautiful place with even more beautiful people.
