Good idea if you have lots of time between arrival and ship boarding time. We were able to see some good highlights like Trevi fountain
A great experience seeing Rome. Our driver/guide was amazing! We told him the places we had already visited so he rearranged the tour to visit sites we wouldn’t otherwise have seen. I would highly recommend this tour for a quick tour of Rome on your way to Covitavecchia!
Our driver Ali was excellent, we had an awesome tour of Rome. He was on time picking us up and was extremely knowledgeable. We would definitely use this service again and request the same driver if possible.
Ride was comfortable. Driver pleasant and took us to many different sites. Would have liked to have gotten more information about the areas visited.
Our driver Maurizio was excellent. He picked us up at our hotel on time and allowed us to decide what sights to visit in Rome. Excellent driver and informative. Since we were only in Rome for a short time Maurizio made sure we were able to experience as much as possible. He delivered us to the port safely and on time. Would highly recommend this tour and will be using again the next time we are in Rome.
Moritzio was a wonderful guide. Excellent! Showed us the highlights. We were there for a short time & he dropped us off at Civitivecchia on time.
Our driver was originally from Belgium which allowed for enhanced knowledge of not only Rome but Europe in general. When we asked her to stop for a pic, no problem! Patiently waited while we walked to Trevi Fountain.
Excellent tour of Rome highlights! Dareo was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He picked us up promptly at 9am and took us to additional sites and even took us to a supermarket to buy wine before taking us to the cruise port.
<p>We had very comfortable tours 2 vans with Dario and I'm sorry, I forget names. Good drivers, crazy city! Happy to stop and take pictures, offered bottled water on this particularly hot, hot day. Would happily travel with these guys again!</p>
<p>Fantastic trip. The driver was punctual, friendly, and professional, and very accommodating in terms of were we wished to go and the stops we wished to make. We had very little time in Rome before catching the ship, and were it not for this trip we would have missed a great opportunity. I certainly recommend more in depth tours if you have the time. But if like us your short on time and really want to see Rome, this is a great way to go.</p>
