Discover Rome and Italy with the best tours

Martha was our guide. She is the best. They way she explained all , answered our questions give us all the information in every place all was wonderful. It was a very hot summer day and she always looks for ways to give us the information under the shade before we went into the sun. I highly recommend this company and Martha as well. It was very easy to make the reservation and pay. We took the private tour and was perfect. 3 hours that feel like Half hour . We didn’t do any limes to get into the places. Know that if you go by yourself or in other yours you could be up to 2 hours under the sun to get into the coliseum or forum. I highly recommend the private tour.

This tour was a wonderful experience in the Trastavere neighborhood of Rome, which felt out of the tourist areas and made the experience feel more authentic. The neighborhood is vibrant and bustling, and the walking (which we did quite a lot of) played a huge part in the enjoyment. But the food-wow! We tried two different kinds of pizza, one with potatoes on it (yummy!). So, so good. We tried an unusual battered and fried spaghetti on a stick, which was a delicious appetizer. We had an interesting street food that was some sort of fried popover with cheese at the center. We stopped at a delicatessen with amazing roasted pork and prosciutto. We dined at a Trattoria that served us an amazing pasta dish with wine (most of our group doesn't drink but it was available). The final course- delicious gelato done authentically (not the poofy gelato with air pumped into it for tourists). Our guide was a young man with great enthusiasm for all the foods and made the evening so much fun. If you are going to Italy you must do at least one food tour like this. We did another food tour in Verona which was very different from this one but both incredibly informative and fun. Foods tours are a great change of pace from the history/museum/archaeological tours, and I highly recommend this one!

Exploring the underground of the Coliseum was a highlight of our trip. Our guide was excellent. She was well versed in the history of Rome and of the building. The small tour size, only 5 people, was a nice break from the usual crowds. The underground tour is not crowded and well worth the extra cost.

Susanna took us on a wonderful tour of the Colloseum, including the underground, Forum and Palatine Hill. Her knowledge and appreciation for history were excellent. I would definitely recommend Walks Inside Rome and The Tour Guy. They sent out reminders before the tour and gave very clear instructions for our meeting place. A wonderful way to spend 3 hours in Rome.

Terrific customer service and terrific tours. I corresponded with WIR for several months ahead of a March 2024 trip to Rome, discussing options for various tours, and they were always responsive, polite, informative, flexible, and helpful. Ultimately we booked two tours: a private early morning tour for 8 persons for the Vatican museums and St. Peter's (3 hours, kid-friendly) and a private 4 person Caravaggio painting workshop. Both were excellent. The tour guide for the Vatican museums and St. Peters spoke excellent English and was magnificent with the kids, helping to guide us through an incredibly crowded, hectic museum environment while also introducing, explaining, and contextualizing the museum and key pieces. She had just the right touch in knowing how much information the kids could absorb, and she was terrific in St. Peter's, as well. Later, our tour guide for the Caravaggio workshop was so lovely, connecting wonderfully with the whole family. It was one of the highlights of our trip. I would 100% recommend WIR to anyone else visiting Rome, either for the first time or for a repeat visit.
