Thanks Attilio!

Attilio was an amazing tour guide. He was personable and friendly and provided a wealth of historic knowledge at each site and about Rome. He took the time to take photos of us and let us spend time as we needed at each stop. He also recommended a great place for lunch afterwards. Do not hesitate to do this tour and ask for Atillio.

HIGHLY recommend this tour!

This tour consisted of my husband and 12-year-old son. We all absolutely loved this tour. Even our son who seems to be at the age of complaining said he would have happily spent longer on this tour. Our tour guide, Atillio, was absolutely wonderful. Atillio was friendly, knowledgeable, and great with our son. He answered all our questions, took tons of photos for us, and was patient and willing to be flexible with whatever we wanted. You can tell he loves what he does. It was sometimes hard to hear what was said at the back of the tuk tuk but Atillio did his best to turn back and speak loudly so we didn’t miss anything. He was happy to repeat and explain anything. The tuk tuk was comfortable and made it easy to cruise around the city - much easier to navigate than a car or big bus. It was a beautiful day and the sunshine and warm spring air made this experience lovely. We ran into Atillio the day after our tour and he stopped to happily greet us on the street, just a nice and funny guy. It was nice seeing a friendly face on the streets of Rome! We highly recommend this tour and specifically, Atillio! Thank you!!

Recommended for your visit to Rome.

I did this experience with my mother. We were 2 in the tuktuk, beautiful. We start at 6 pm, in October, until almost 9 pm, with day and night views of the city of Rome. It is an original ride, with great knowledge and information that he provides. Thank you, Attilio, until next time.

The perfect introduction to Rome!

We met Attilio on our first evening in Rome. His TukTuk tour was the perfect introduction to the city center, allowing us to see some of the major sites, all beautifully lit up at night. Attilio passed along plenty of cultural and historical information as we went along. He was punctual, friendly, and more than happy to customize our tour as the night went on. Thanks for a great night!
