Discover Rome and Italy with the best tours

Sylvia was our guide through the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s. We took the 7:20am tour and was the 2nd group in line at the entry gate. She was very pleasant, easy to understand, knowledge and very patient. Our group of 7 was small compared to the huge groups of 20+ that were around. The size gave us an opportunities to ask questions throughout and definitely felt more intimate. Highly recommend this 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!

Our chef was excellent, friendly, and taught us so much. Since we had previously done a pasta class in Florence, it was fun that he educated us on some of the differences in the food for Florence, Rome, and Naples. Pizza and Gelato were delicious!

Our full day Private driver (Gabrielle) and Guide (Francesca) were amazing. The Tour started at the Pier - Ship pick up with Gabrielle sharing his knowledge of the surrounding area on the drive to Rome. Francesca is so knowledgeable and experienced; she offered time to see so much of the sites we wished to visit and even more. The crowds were massive, but her knowledge allowed us to by-pass huge lines with more time to witness the antiquities, Colosseum, Forum, Panthéon, Piazza Navona, Vatican City. Walks Inside Rome is by far a leader in Touring in Italy.

Great local expertise and able to sort out issues with the tickets on the spot.
