Our driver/guide, Ahmed is an excellent driver and provided good plan on our short span in Rome. He picked of dropoffs and pickups are excellent which minimise our walking under the extreme high temperature during our visit.
Ahmed was terrific. He showed us everything on our list. We would recommend him to anyone wanting to see Rome on their own. Great day!
We had an excellent tour in Rome, and our guide Fabio made the experience truly memorable. His knowledge of the city's history, culture, and landmarks was outstanding, and he shared everything in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand.
Thank you for the positive feedback. Glad to know that you enjoyed the tour!
Fabio was amazing! So knowledgeable and easily navigated the crazy roads of Rome! You must be a professional driver to drive in Rome and that’s just what Fabio was! He was able to take us to almost everything was to see in Rome. Because we were on a cruise, we had to get everything in short, quick doses, but we made the of it and it was amazing!
Glad to know that you enjoyed the tour, hope to see you again!
Ahmed met us at the port and quickly got us into Rome, with his experience and expertise he was able to show us so much of the must see spots in Rome that you wouldn’t of been able to see with time constraints that a tour provided by the cruise ship would provide. If you have the opportunity to take this tour you won’t regret it.
Thanks for the positive feedback, hope to see you again!
Nino was an amazing driver and knew the streets of Rome like the back of his hand. After an exhausting day of seeing EVERYTHING in one day he promised the best pizza in Rome and it did not disappoint.
Glad to know that you enjoyed the tour, hope to see you again!
Ahmed was terrific! He was waiting for us Shiite as soon as we exited the ship and off we went to Rome. His driving skills are SUPERB! We had a great day seeing all of the sights we wanted due to his superb navigation of the city. We also fit in a visit to the Vatican and Basilica that they prearranged for us. SKIP THE CRUISE TOURS AND BOOK WITH THEM- You will be so glad you did.
Glad to know that you enjoyed the tour, hope to see you again!
Everything about this experience was for our comfort. Pick up from the ship's pier was easy. The van was roomy enough to accommodate 6 of us comfortably along with all our luggage. We pre-paid for skip the line tickets both at the Coliseum and the Vatican museum. I highly recommend doing this. Our driver, Ahmed, was amazing! He stopped at many places, offered to let us get out to take pictures. He was caring, patient and a very skilled driver.
We are happy for this positive review, we hope to see you again!

Thank you Assem… thank you for showing us more of Rome than we could ever have seen on a ship tour. Thank you for a perfect, low stress, high value and extremely educational day.👍
Thanks for the positive review, hope to see you again.
We had a wonderful tour with Ahmed! He packed so much into one short day and went out of his way to show some lesser-known attractions. Ahmed also built a great relationship with our son, making sure to keep him engaged throughout the day. Highly recommend this excursion, especially if you have limited time in Rome.
