Had a guided tour with Sharon in Rome covering the main highlights, including Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain, and other iconic sights. We really got to see every location planned for the activity. It was extremely hot that day—right in the middle of August—and she was very thoughtful about keeping us cool, making sure we stopped at fountains to refill our water bottles and taking breaks to grab a gelato. She made sure everyone could hear her clearly, spoke calmly, and didn't hesitate to share plenty of great local tips. She was extremely knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about Rome and Italy, which made the experience really great. Saying goodbye at the end gave us that bittersweet feeling you get after a wonderful time—a clear sign that the tour went amazingly well. We would do it again without hesitation.
We had Joseph as our tour guide and it was our favorite guided experience in Rome!! He was very passionate and gave us interesting knowledge on everything!! Even great food recommendations.

Sharon was a great tour guide! She was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tour is quite long so be prepared to walk a few miles, but so worth it! Come with energy and questions, Sharon has so much to share!
Thank you! We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour with Sharon and appreciated her friendly and knowledgeable approach. It’s wonderful to hear you found the walk worthwhile and enjoyed everything she had to share!
My family and I had a wonderful 2.5 hour tour with Sharon that started at Piazza Navona and ended at the Colosseum. Sharon was energetic, informative, and fun! While we toured in the last night of the trip, it might be even better at the beginning of a stay in Rome because the tour provides a great overview of attractions that could be visited later in more detail. Don’t hesitate to book this trip. It’s a great value!

I thought the tour with Alina was great. She was very informative and interactive. It did involve a lot of walking so be prepared. I thought it was worth it and loved seeing the coliseum lit up at night.
