Our private tour with Vincenzo was absolutely the best tour we have ever experienced. Ever. Vincenzo was so knowledgeable and engaging and passionate about the history of the republic and the empire. He wove in so much information and really sparked a deeper curiosity in us. We will be back! And we will definitely do another tour with him.
Favorite person I have met in Rome!!!

We booked a private tour of the Capitoline Museums with Vincenzo S. and it was one of the best tours/experiences we did in all of Italy (during our three week trip). He was incredibly engaging, knowledgeable and passionate about the history, archeology, and artwork on display. We were captivated from the minute we started. HIGHLY recommend doing the tour with him, you will learn a ton and have fun!

Rome Guides ( Martina) gave our family ( 6 of us) A SPECTACULAR tour of the Coliseum, the Roman Forum, the Vatican Museum and Basilica, the Capitoline Museum and the Borghese Museum in five incredible days — engaging our grandchildren and satisfying my insatiable curiosity about Roman History — we cannot recommend her highly enough— we have traveled the world and never encountered a better guide
The best tour I have ever had!
Peter_H
I am not one to gush but this was, without a doubt, the the most enjoyable tour I have ever had. This was primarily because our guide, Martina, was very knowledgeable and very engaging. She welcomed my questions and her answers were satisfying. Our tour (3 hrs) never dragged. Our group was small enough (3) that we could speak directly to each other... without headphones. Her English was clear and perfect. Her short discourse on the Roman view of the afterlife included interesting references to pop culture. Similarly her backstory on a very fine and rare bust of emperor Comodus, was very interesting and instructive. The role and life of the Vestigal Virgins was fascinating. Her explanation of design of the Forum now makes sense to me. I could go on. In short, it was a privilege to have had Martina as our guide.
