Ele was just fantastic. She met us at Piazza Navona and took us through some wonderful highlights of Rome. We really enjoyed her descriptions of the sites, the Caravaggios we saw in one of the churches and the coffee we got. She also gave us some great tips on where to shop for gifts and places to eat while we visited Rome. She was fun to talk to and listen to and we're so glad we had a chance to enjoy a personal tour of some of the city's highlights. Thank you Ele! Our original travel date was November 2018 but we loved her so much we wanted to talk about it again.

A lovely lady called Gulia took my husband and I on a walk round Rome sampling food and drink from various shops and a superb pasta lunch. If you are going todo this tour I advise you not to eat much beforehand as we finished the tour around 2:00pm and did not eat another thing all day. We had meats and cheese with some wine to start off with and then followed this in a picturesque market square with tasting various oils and vinegars. Roman Pizza and beer were next, followed by a delicious lunch of two different types of pasta. Then followed dessert of either cannoli or tirimisu at another stop off point, ice cream and coffee to finish. Never felt so full. Guila was full of interesting conversation about her city. All in all a great day out ending at the Trevi fountain.

6. Day trip from Rome: Bomarzo and Caprarola - private tour

Rome Top Tours

Enjoy your private trip from Rome with your English speaking driver to Bomarzo. There are many elements that contribute to consider the Park of the Monsters of Bomarzo as an eminent example of an initiatory itinerary and not as a simple expression, although bizarre and unusual, of the Italian mannerist taste. Villa Lante in Bagnaia together with the Bomarzo Monster Park, represents one of the most admirable examples of an Italian mannerist style garden from the 16th century. Finally, Palazzo Farnese, in Caprarola, is one of the most beautiful Renaissance palaces in Europe. The vision of its high gardens is unique and wonderful, precisely because the Italian gardens, decorated with fountains, labyrinth hedges and caryatids (some of which sculpted by Pietro Bernini) are designed to be admired from above. A stop for lunch is included during the day ( fees at your own expense )

Inclusions: Admission tickets to Bomarzo Monster Park, Private transportation by deluxe vehicle and English speaking driver, Professional English speaking guide at Bomarzo, Villa Lante and Palazzo Farnese, Admission tickets to Villa Lante and its gardens, Admission tickets to Palazzo Farnese and its gardens

The Agency was helpful in the booking office, but the purchased time slot was not available even though we had booked it in advance and paid. However they were able to give us an earlier time slot. The booking stated that the host accompanied us to the correct entrance at the colosseum. This didn’t happen and we where given verbal directions at the booking office which was about a 5 minute walk away. This wasn’t as advertised and I think was poor customer service. It added stress and hassle to the trip which I had paid to avoid. The booking details are inaccurate and should be changed to suit the actual service provided. The Colosseum itself was brilliant and awe-inspiring!
