Fabulous evening tour with Stefano. Learnt lots about the history of Rome and LGBT pioneers. Stefano was knowledgeable and fun and the time passed so quickly. Great to end the tour in a bar in the with the rest of the group and Stefano - felt like a night out with friends.
The best tour in Rome!

This tour was amazing! Our guide made the experience for us. He was very welcoming and knowledgable. I recommend this tour for solo travellers and groups alike. Great way to see the city and meet other people. This was the highlight of our time in Rome!
Great time

I signed up for Rainbow tour of Rome and I had a great time. My guide Gian Marco was very knowledgeable and passionate about history of Rome.
A MUST DO for every (gay) person visiting Rome!

I booked a few tours with Viator but this was my favourite!
I've always heard and read about the secret lives of Rome's historical figures, and with this tour I could experience what their lives must have been like and how they gave expression to their "gayness"
Our tour guide was astonishing- his knowledge of the history of Rome and the secret lives of its famous historical figures amazed us all!
The people in the tour group was great too - straight friendly they made my straight friend feel welcome and shared laughter and banter with her!
The tour takes place at sunset making it the ideal time for photography!
This tour is a great opportunity to learn a different history of Rome, to make great new friends, and to see the sights with new eyes! I loved the tour!
