Important Information

  • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
  • Your Tour, Your Way: Your private vehicle and driver are exclusively yours for the whole trip! Unlike big tour buses, we can pull up right next to the main sights. That means less walking, better views, and way more time to enjoy the attractions!
  • Good to Know About Your Driver: Your English-speaking driver is a local pro who will share fun, basic facts and insider context from the vehicle along the way to make sure you have an unforgettable time in Rome! Important Note: Under local law, tour drivers provide general driver commentary from the vehicle, but they are not licensed walking tour guides. Drivers stay with the vehicle at all times and cannot accompany you into sites or walk around the attractions with you. Rest assured, you'll still get a seamless, stress-free, and truly wonderful taste of the Eternal City!
  • Group Sizes Over 8 Passengers: Got a bigger crew? Just make a few separate bookings! We'll set you up with multiple vans that travel together, stop at all the same spots, and let your group mix and match seats along the way.
  • Traveling with Little Ones?: Infant Seat available upon request! Just let us know in advance.

Special guide for the eternal city

It is a special experience to have someone who loves his city guide you around for a few hours. In the terrible heat of August, it was great to be able to sit in a cool van and go to so many places in a short period of time.
