Okay, We decided to take this tour because we saw it on tripadvisor...we also decided to "ask for BRUNO" BECAUSE of the reviews on tripadvisor....EVERYTHING YOU READ IS CORRECT!!! He is WONDERFUL!! He was five minutes early for this tour. I know this because we were 20 minutes early and enjoyed just wandering outside of the entrance and enjoying the... More

Our private guided tour of the Vatican helped us to swiftly navigate through the hordes of people and concentrate on a quality experience. The lines really are daunting. Our guide was Francesca whose knowledge gave us very a thorough understanding of the museums. She was very passionate about the art and its history. She gave us detail as to what... More

Sistine Chapel and vatican city Tour - From the moment we met our guide outside the entrance she welcomed us and was straight away into the tour. She rang the night before to confirm time and meeting point and also advised will be there slightly early to start earlier if we wished. Our tour guide was Laura and from start... More

Theresa Di Iorio is a very knowledgeable and charming tour guide. She picked us up at our hotel and took us on a fact-filled history tour of Rome.

Four of us on our first trip to Rome thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Vatican Museum, Sistine Capel, St. Peter's, etc. with Valentina. Arriving at the Vatican early and seeing a line which stretched forever, we knew we were lucky as we were whisked through the entrance procedures by our knowledgeable and charming guide. The tour was educational, fun... More

Fortunately for us, it didn't feel that way because we had scheduled a private tour and, more importantly, that Sergio was our guide. So knowledgeable and so passionate he opened our eyes... More

Don't even consider going to visit the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel without a tour guide. We met our wonderful tour guide Isabella around 9:00 AM and made our way right past the chumps in line who got there as early as 7 AM! Avoiding that long line is reason enough to go with a guide, but Isabella was also... More

Just returned from a 5 night stay in Rome and we (2 couples) had the good fortune to experience 2 private tours with the Private Tour of Rome tour company. Our first tour was with Cristiana for the tour of the Roman Forum/Emperor's Palace area. Cristiana was amazing and we had so much fun learning all about the history of... More

We were fortunate to have Valentina as our guide through Ancient Rome and the Vatican. She provided great historical facts and made the entire day entertaining and relaxing. A long day of walking and taking in all of these sights could be overwhelming, but we thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to come back.
