Our family thoroughly enjoyed our 3 days in Rome! Real Rome Tours helped us see so much of the city in the short time we were there. Gerard was amazing to work with as we planned everything- so helpful and great communication! Marle, Ferdinando, and Heidi were the best guides- they each had a wealth of knowledge to share and were fun and personable as well. The driver (I can’t remember his name) for our last excursion was also wonderful! So glad we found this company for our trip to Rome!

Gerard was extremely helpful from the moment I first inquired about the tours in Rome. Before traveling to Rome he guided me in choosing the best tours for my group of 8 people. The ages of those in our group ranged from 17-71 y/o, and all enjoyed the tours and loved our tour guides, Heidi and Max. We participated in 3 different tours, an evening walking tour of Rome, a tour of Ancient Rome, and a Vatican tour. Gerard was in contact with me throughout our time in Rome providing tremendous guidance along the way that exceeded all expectations! The tour guides were friendly, knowledgable, and extremely personable. They gave us wonderful insight into Rome, and also provided advice about other things outside of our tours. I highly recommend this tour company for anyone visiting Rome!

We had a private tour of 7 with my family. Gerard was very helpful and in contact throughout the booking process - and customized an agenda that fit our travel schedule. Using Whatsapp - we were able to communicate right up to meeting our Guide - Heidi. She was great. We saw everything that was promised, plus more. She is full of Roman history and knowledge. It was the hottest day in May in Rome since 2003 - 92 degrees. We used the public watering fountains which helped. I did a lot of searching and researching of Rome tours - and would highly recommend Real Rome Tours. Bravo Heidi and Gerard!

We were two families who used Real Rome Tours for a day exploring the historical sites in Rome. Gerard was fantastic helping to work out what we actually wanted to do. He also went beyond the call of duty to help us sort things out that weren't part of the tour. Max was our tour guide and was excellent. His knowledge was unlimited and he pitched the level of detail perfectly - accommodating and inclusive. He was also a lot of fun. Highly recommend and will use when when we return.
