We had an amazing driver. We had kids with us and he was very patient. Everyone had fun.
Adrian was fantastic. He took us to the all the places we wanted to and more. He was very knowledgeable, got into areas that we thought would be impossible and was very personable with the whole family.
Handy to order and they waited for us. When we were late from the airport. The app is very easy to use and the drivers are very friendly.
Pleasant vehicle and knowledgeable guide. Got us close to all the sites of interest. Volunteered to return us to our cruise ship.
Georgio was awesome and we so enjoyed the tour! He gave us a great overview of the city so we could appreciate the next day when we took in depth tours.
This was the perfect way to see all of Rome on a cruise port day! Andriev was very informative. Loved his city! He was kind and helpful. Let us stop when we wanted and waited patiently
Gaber was so nice and took us to see all the highlights of Rome without the hassle of taxis buses and crowds. His car was very clean and easily accommodated four adults Drop off and pick up was especially wonderful! He also took us to less known gems of Rome and gave us ideas of other places we may be interested in. It’s a nice overview of Rome, even though we had been there before! Highly recommend Gaber Hussein!
Knowledgeable guide and many sights visited made for an enjoyable journey through time and place. Sean’s consideration of our age and health challenges made for a happy day. Gelato stops were an added pleasure.
Andrea was very attentive, courteous, knowledgeable and provided great insight. His driving skills and local information were exceptional. Worth every cent.
