Amazing experience. Very friendly and knowledgeable guide. We really enjoyed it and highly recommend it.
Lisa made us discover the street art of 2 neighborhoods and with, the lives of its inhabitants. Lisa knows her subject and shares it with passion. I recommend. Thanks, Lisa.
Highly recommended! Informative and interesting from start to finish 🤩 If you want to know more about current Rome, you should participate 🔝 (Additional info: Lisa knows wells everywhere to fill up his water bottle, knows where to take toilet breaks and always finds a pleasant place in the shade from which to see the artworks well.) Thank you ☺️
The street art tour with Lisa was very special! Lisa was an unbeatable great guide and shared her extensive knowledge with us. Recent Roman history, no less interesting and worth seeing than what you get in “Old” Rome. Highly recommended! Thank you Lisa
Danke!!! Thanks for exploring with me 🌸
Enjoy a lovely, fun , and informative street art tour with Annalisa! A good history of one of Rome's newer neighborhoods from the early Twentieth Century, where much of the street art is located. Thank you, Annalisa!
The Street Art Tour with Annalisa in Ostiense and Garbatella truly added something special to our Roman holiday experience. The two neighborhoods we visited were historically fascinating (focus on modern history), showcased unique pieces of street art, and offered a glimpse into the authentic everyday lives of Romans today. Annalisa is the perfect guide —knowledgeable, enthusiastic, helpful, calm, composed and her storytelling is well-paced. My boyfriend and I would definitely recommend this tour!
Great street art tour with Lisa! 👩🎨 It was super informative and super well conducted. You learn a lot about artists, works, outlying areas of Rome in a Great Mood. Must do for a global vision of the city I recommend 100%! 🎨✨
This was one of the best things we did in Rome so far. We have been here many times and wanted to see some non-touristic parts of Rome. Lisa showed us the street art of Garbatella which was just so interesting. She has a lot of knowledge about history and art and took so much time to explain everything. There was only the two of us on this day - we felt very special.
My friend and I had a wonderful experience with Lisa. We drove around by car to the various art manifestations, which was nice, and gave the feeling of getting to know Lisa a little. She's talented, committed, and a lovely person. And can one really wish for more than to have local contact with a sympathetic and skilled person when traveling? We don't think so. Lisa gets all five stars in here.
It has been amazing to discover Garbatella and Tor Arancia with Annalisa. She has a great knowledge about street art and linking historical events made precious and enriching. She is kind and sweet which make all the experience light and fun. I really recommend to book the street art tour with Annalisa in Garbatella
