    What a great evening!

    "We had such a great time with Valentina! We wish we could have booked more tours with her. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. It was rainy and cold when we took our evening walking tour and she made it so much fun, we could have stayed out all night. She told us stories about almost every corner and kept us entertained. She hooked us up with some killer food recommendations too!"

    Fab informative guide

    "Valentina was a lovely, friendly guide, full of information on Rome and its history. It was great to go off the beaten tourist track a little and learn of some of the characters and stories that are part of this beautiful city's colourful past. Being in a small group made interaction easy and Valentina was happy to answer any questions we had, regardless of the topic. Her English is excellent and her knowledge will leave you feeling you have learnt much more than the guidebooks alone will tell you. "

    Descubriendo los fantasmas de Roma

    "Durante nuestro viaje a Roma tuvimos el enorme placer de pasar una agradable tarde con Valentina. En un perfecto castellano nos relató historias de los fantasmas más famosos de Roma al tiempo que disfrutamos de un primer contacto con la ciudad, guiándonos a través de sus callejuelas y aconsejando sobre puntos de interés y restaurantes. En definitiva una gran experiencia que recomendamos. "

    Rome Ghost tour

    "Our first time in Rome and the first time I have used 'With locals'. Very relieved everything happened as promised! It was great fun to spend 2 hours with Valentina listening to her ghost stories. As we walked between each site we also asked hundreds of questions about Rome which she gladly answered for us. I have recommended this web site to all of my friends already - a great introduction to a new city! "

    Another Not To Be Missed Tour!

    "This was our 2nd tour with Valentina, who is AMAZING (knowledgeable and organized with a warm and friendly personality). We took it just as it got dark for some extra atmosphere. It was not a creepy tour and we loved walking the city in the dark, seeing less touristy neighborhoods, haunted sites and learning about the history of the ghosts was fascinating. "

    "Valentina could show Rome in more than one experience, but this time she wants to show you the .... ghosts of Rome. I personally know many of the histories that are secretly kept in the oldest palaces but Valentina really surprised me with some deadly secrets i never knew before. If you want to try something really different, try this tour with her!"

    Ghost Tour of Rome

    "My nephew and I enjoyed our ghost tour of Rome with Valentina. We visited beautiful places and heard interesting stories of some of Rome's historical ghosts. Valentina's communication in advance was very good. We would recommend this tour if you are interesting in a lovely stroll through the historic centre while hearing some tales of former residents. Not presented at all in a \"scary\" way so would be good for interested older children too. Thanks Valentina for a nice evening! "
