From the initial contact through the completion of our vacation, Real Rome Tours was wonderful. We reserved private tours of the Vatican, Borghese Gallery, Forum/Colosseum/Historic City, and Ostia Antica. The tour guides chosen for our family were perfect. My husband and I were traveling with our 20 year old daughter and all the guides were able to hold our interest... more

While on a July, 2010 vacation in Rome, our family of 4 took both the Ancient Rome and Vatican tours with Real Rome Tours. For the Ancient Rome tour it was only the 4 of us and our guide Richie. We passed several tour groups which were quite large (20+ people) so we were fortunate to be in such a... more

We took the one day tour and were very fortunate to have the undivided attention of Richie. It was a long and tiring day, but he was totally engaging in his knowledge and enthusiasm for the city and it's history. We've had a number of personal guides around the world and I must say, this guide is up there. Excellent.... more

Even though this was a verly long day packed with all the things that one must see while in Rome, our guide, Justin, managed to hold our interest with all kinds of interesting information. He was so passionate about all the history and we all were fascinated at his endless stream of facts. He was very accomodating to everyone in... more

We had 3 tours with Real Rome. Vatican, Ancient and Imperial. Absolutely excellent. Justin is the best guide we had in any city we visited in all Italy during a 3 week trip. Highly recomended tours; very personalized; small groups; all guides we had are people with college dgrees in related subjects, and it showed they did their homework. more

I would definately recommend a tour or transfer. We visited with the Vatican with a teenager and Alexjandra made the trip that bit more special. The Vatican is a vast place and she took us to the "must sees" adding all the essential information. It was great to skip all the enormous queues as well. We also arranged return transfers... more

We scheduled 3 tours with Real Rome Tours. Our tour guides, Maya and Justin were both very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and engaging guides. The group sizes were smaller and more intimate than other tour groups we encountered. They made our first visit to Rome a very positive experience. You won't go wrong with Real Rome Tours! more

My husband and I recently booked the Ancient Rome Tour, booking via the website was really easy and we had replies/confirmation within hours of submitting our request, including details and photos of meeting places, travel advice etc. Our guide, Justin, was brilliant. His knowledge, enthusiasm and ability to make the history really come alive was impressive! A great tour, I... more

We took really good tours in several cities through a different company and I decided that a tour of the Coliseum and the Forum in Rome would give us insights and information we might not get otherwise as well as making these sights seem more manageable. Wrong! These two sights at least are totally manageable for individuals and our tour... more
