A great historical experience with Rish! - First, thank you to Rish for waiting for us after my mix-up delayed the start of the tour. His warm personality and friendly demeanor put us at ease away. Rish struck the perfect balance of history, information, and beauty throughout the tour. The basilica was breathtaking with its mosaic exterior, mosaic ceilings and coloured marble tile floors, and the tiled “graffiti” wall. .It was fascinating to hear about the Pagan and Christian influences in Trastevere and the struggles of the Jewish community in the Jewish Ghetto. Also very interesting was how the word ghetto has such a completely different connotation in Europe as compared to North America. Thanks Rish for an amazing tour.

Great tour - Rish was an excellent guide! Very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic. We learned a lot about the trastevere and especially the history of the Jewish quarter. My husband needed to sit every so often, Rish made sure to find a place for him to sit (sometimes a rarity in Rome) and didn't rush us . Even gave us suggestions on where to eat.

Appreciating art, religion, Trastavere and the Jewish Ghetto with AJ - Touring with A.J. was like meeting a new friend in Rome. She took interest in us and our interests, pointing out art and artifacts that we would appreciate. We talked a lot about layers. We now know more about what to look for, the significance of symbols, and the juxtaposition of old and new. Highly recommend.

Walking throughout the different areas of Rome outside of the main tourist attractions - Massimo was a great guide. Very informative and had a great passion for the city. We had our 7mth old girl with us and in the heat he was very accommodating and considerate which we appreciated. We learnt a lot and had a great time - thank you Massimo!
