Bado, our tour guide, was amazing. He designed the tour around our interests and his knowledge of the city and ensured that we saw everything that we wanted to see. A fantastic guide and I would highly recommend him and Viator for this experience. A lot of walking but 100% completely worth it to see this beautiful city!

Landmarks of Rome

We had a tour with Harrison, his love for the architecture and culture of Rome is fascinating. It was a private tour thus we had an opportunity to have questions and discussions which made the tour even more engaging—recommended for architecture and landmark lovers.

Great personalized tour!

The best way to see the city with a personalized tour from Bado. He is an architect so had an interesting perspective of the sights of Rome. Went to the top sights in the city. It wasn't my first time in Roma so it was kind of a refresher. I paid for a 4 hour tour but we ended in two hours so not sure if I missed out on anything. I would recommend this tour though since they focus on what you want to see. They write to you ahead of time if you have any requests! Great tour!

Great tour of Rome

Our second trip to Rome but even more interesting than our first. Our guide Bado was very engaging. He had an excellent understanding of Roman architecture and pointed out details we could have easily missed on our own. He kept to our schedule and took us everywhere we requested with interesting conversations about history. We highly recommend his services!
