Rome tour guide recommendations
 

Any suggestions on which tour guide(s) to use in Rome? Private or bus? We'll do the usual, ancient rome, vatican museum, St Peters & Sistene chapel, plus Tivioli gardens, Catacombs, Apian way. Any others we shouldn't miss? Thanks!

please type in your title in the search field above. This topic is contantly discussed.

If you are interested, we put together a series of MP3 tours for Rome. These are free. Use this link to down load them...

Presently we have 3 itineraries completed.

Have fun,

Hi Cody,

I have not traveled to Rome yet - we are going in July but have booked tours with Presto Tours - a private Vactacin City Tour and with Context Tours - http://www.contexttravel.com/index.php?sess=ct for a private tour of ancient Rome.
I am using both of these companies based on recommendations from this website and then their prompt and easy communication in booking.
Hope that helps,
Dawn

Grazie!! A friend recommended a local person who is a private guide there. The guide seems very eager to take the job however; I’m hesitant since he doesn't want to commit to a schedule until he meets us in Rome. I'd rather not leave things to the last minute so I appreciate these recommendations!

I cannot imagine that you will find a guide more qualified, more personable, and more reasonable in price than Francesca Caruso, who we, along with SandiTravelnut, hired for a tour in Rome last January. Francesca leads many of Rick Steves Rome tours, if that means anything to you. She will custom-design a tour or take you to wherever you want to visit; her English is fluent. She charges by the tour, not per person as the organized tours do.
