The perfect 1-day Rome experience

Published on Aug, 2024

Max was amazing. He was personable, knowledgable, and efficient without rushing us. I can't believe all we were able to see in one day. I am so glad I made the decision to book with him.

An exceptional day in Rome!

Published on Jul, 2024

Our Rome in a Day experience was a wonderful way to end our vacation. The day was planned perfectly with the exact mix of sightseeing, education and shopping breaks. Our driver and guide were outstanding and did an exceptional job coordinating and planning our time together. Overall, exceptional experience!

100% recommend!!! Fantastic!!

Fantastic!!! We had a wonderful day. Carlo, our guide could not have been more knowledgeable, personable and accommodating. Lorenzo was our guide in the museums. The amount of knowledge in his brain was insane! He could answer every question we had, and gave us so many interesting facts. We were only in Rome for less than 48 hours and this was the best decision. We walked right into the Colosseum and Vatican museum. Everything was perfectly timed and on point. Perfect day in Rome.

The BEST day in Rome!

Published on Jul, 2024

The BEST day!!! We were picked up right on time by our amazing driver, Claudio. Really nice vehicle, cool air and cold waters. He took us around to all of the highlights / quick stops we could fit in before meeting our tour guide, Daniel, at the colosseum. Daniel gave us a great personalized experience with just the right amount of details. Anything we asked questions about, he knew it! After that, the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, St Peters. Never waited in any line because of Daniel and his preparedness. It was perfect. Hopped right back in van with Claudio and breezed back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. Our favorite day of our cruise. Worth every penny!!! Don’t hesitate to book. Just do it!
