Itinerary
Marvel at the size of the largest political and commercial hub of the Ancient Roman Empire, as you drive by the ruins of grandiose temples, basilicas, and public spaces leading to the Colosseum.
Be amazed by the colossal white marble monument where the eternal flame always shines to pay respect to the unknown soldiers who fell during the war. Two soldiers guard it day and night to ensure it never goes out.
See the most important road of Ancient Rome, which was essential in transporting troops and goods in and out of Rome. Today, part of a splendid national archeological park.
the most ancient building in Rome to marvel at the "Oculus" in the center of the dome and the opulence of the marbles and the exquisite details of the statues all around you.
Rome is for real an open-air museum, as testified by this awesome square where you can admire the best example of Baroque art in its exquisite fountains. Why not enjoy a nice gelato as you stroll around the piazza?
Climb the 138 steps that lead to the church of Trinità dei Monti for a spectacular view of the square below, or just walk around the square to enjoy one of the most acclaimed spots in the Eternal City.
Time to throw your coin in the Trevi Fountain for good luck and a safe return to Rome, but you need to do it right! Turn your back to the fountain, hold the coin in your right hand and toss it over your left shoulder!
Ancient Roman law prohibited the burial of the deceased inside the city walls, so they were built along the Appian Way, which was outside the walls. They are a network of passageways that can stretch for over 15 miles underground, so visiting them is only permitted with the aid of a catacomb guide provided by the site.
Also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, it was built in the 1st century AD and is renowned for its grand scale and architectural innovation. The Colosseum was primarily used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles, symbolizing the might and entertainment prowess of ancient Rome.

Fantastic Day with Rome in Limo and our Private Driver! Punctual and great personality. We experienced so much of Rome in one-day that would have taken several to do on our own. Very good value for the money! Highly recommend.

Francesco was simply amazing! His knowledge and wisdom of all things Ancient Rome was astounding. He shared story after story, while masterfully intertwining facts, dates, significant events as well as prominent figures. We were soon filled with the history and culture of Ancient Rome. His sense of humor, patience and flexibility gave my family a memorable experience that will last a lifetime. Thank you, Francesco!

Since it is the jubilee we wanted to see the open basilicas with the holy doors, the CHRISTIAN TOUR by Rome in Limo. Since we did a private Vatican tour earlier, our driver added Santa Croce, the holy steps, and the catacombs instead, dropping us at the Borghese (also a must see, get tickets or impossible) for a 5:00 tour. Our driver Stefano was excellent! Very knowledgeable of history, knew all the best places to park, a perfect place for a quick lunch. He respected that we wanted to spend a lot of time in the basilicas and managed our day perfectly. There would be no other way to see it all in a day. Worth every penny.

Just the best. This was our second time with them. Everything always goes smooth. Drivers are very safe. Cars are clean. You pull right up in front, no walking for blocks in a parking lot. Best way to go after a cruise .

This experience was, by far, the best use of our time in Rome. Our driver was knowledgeable, well-spoken, fun and safe. We have told everyone we know about Rome in Limo and highly recommend their services.

This was our second time using Rome in Limo and yet again they were absolutely amazing. We bought my family to Rome for the first time and also had a few days in Assisi so booked Rome in Limo to do our transfers from Rome to Assisi and back. We than also had a wonderful Night tour and a tour of Rome with a trip to the catacombs. Our driver Peter was wonderful and my family learnt so much from his knowledge about Rome. We will definitely be returning to Rome again in the future and would not hesitate to use Rome in Limo again, a wonderful company.

We spent a wonderful day with Stefano, starting at the Catacombs and covering so many of Rome's "must see" sites, including the Appian Way, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, the Colosseum, Piazza Navona ... and a neighborhood pizza place that was delicious and cheap -- one of Stefano's favorite lunch spots with lots of locals. Stefano was so accommodating, told us a lot about Rome's history and culture, and made the day relaxing and fun. What a great way to see the city!

My husband and I took our son & future daughter-in-law on a Mediterranean cruise and we pre-extended in Rome. We had a day and a half to accomplish so much before boarding. I have to first of all thank Jany at Rome In Limo for being so patient with me in scheduling everything we needed to accomplish for our trip. Peiro was our driver for two solid days and was a wonderful guide and such a gentleman. He was also instrumental in organizing our son's engagement at Trevi Fountain on a day that looked like rain. On our final day in Rome after touring the Vatican, he found us a wonderful lunch location and then delivered us to our cruise boat. It was perfection. Laura and Maria Laura were our tour guides for the Colosseum/Ancient Rome and Vatican Tours. They were both incredibly knowledgeable and fun to be around. When we left for our cruise and did other tours in other cities, none could hold a candle to the treatment we received from Rome In Limo. We missed them and wished we could have brought them along! Thank you so much for making our trip fabulous and memorable. We couldn't recommend you enough.

By far the best company to use for touring Italy. Drivers are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to try to take you wherever you want to go. Stefano in Rome, & Johnny in the Amalfi Coast were both terrific!

We have used Rome in Limo in 2011 so when we were in Rome this year , September 2022, we booked them again. We had Francesco and Giovanni as our guides. I had made a list of areas of interest and they did it all! When our group wanted gelato, they found the perfect spot. It was delicious. So very pleased with them and would recommend them. 5 stars is truly not enough for their service. Thank you again for a wonderful day we will not forget. 💕
