Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Sara was such a great guide during our first visit to Rome. She adeptly navigated us through the lines and secured tickets for us. Her "local" knowledge had us at the Colosseum at sunset and we have the most amazing pictures - even one where it is entirely empty!"
"Valeria was very knowledgeable and added a lot of interesting detail to the tour of the Colosseum and the Forum! Would highly recommend. Valeria customized the speed and the message to meet our unique needs. "
"If you’re planning a Colosseum tour in Rome, do yourself a favour and go with Yanira. I had an absolutely fantastic experience with her. Yanira has a wonderful way of bringing history to life — not just the big headline moments, but all the fascinating inside stories and details that make you see the Colosseum in a completely different way. It felt less like a lecture and more like walking through history with a very knowledgeable (and very fun) friend. She was incredibly friendly, easy to chat with, and made the whole experience relaxed and engaging. Communication beforehand was smooth, she was super responsive, and everything ran right on time. Yanira also shared some brilliant local recommendations. I followed her tips for dinner and gelato and… let’s just say she clearly knows her way around Rome. Zero regrets. And as a bonus, she even helped me take some fantastic photos along the way — the kind you actually want to keep rather than the usual rushed tourist selfies. Hands down one of the best guide experiences I've ever had. If you want a Colosseum tour that’s informative, enjoyable, and sprinkled with great stories (plus excellent food tips), Yanira is your person."
"My family and I really enjoyed our tour with Vania. Thanks!"
"So when in Rome, you want to see the Colosseum and it is such a historical site, you want to go there with a guide to get the full picture. We booked Eleonora as our guide and she was excellent! Good communication started early so we knew where to go and when to meet her. She knew all the local tips to move around, which was great as it is a really busy site! He had a wide knowledge of the site and pointed out things we would have missed if unaccompanied. She was able to answer all our questions too. Recommended you take a guide and recommended the guide be Eleonora!"
"I came to Rome as a solo traveler and I’m so glad I found WL and especially Leonardo! He’s true local with great insights and he put together an excellent assortment of tastings for me. (He even picked my wine and I ended up buying a bottle to take back home with me). I highly recommend this tour with Leonardo! "
"We couldn’t have had a better guide to explain all the history, excavation techniques and find the most beautiful glimpses of the ruins. Highly recommend Pietro Paolo. Also gave us a wonderful pizzeria to enjoy after our tour. Incredible tour of such an important piece of history."
"Pietro was an unbelievable guide. Our time with him in the coliseum was phenomenal! This was the highlight of our trip to Rome. We were so happy that we got to be on the floor. We learned so much from Pietro. The Palantine Hills tour with him was perfect also"
"Claudia made our experience on The 10 Tastings of Rome truly special. My oldest son, who is 11, and I had such a fun and memorable time walking through the city, learning more about Rome’s history, and enjoying delicious Roman food along the way. Since this was my son’s first trip to Rome and to Italy, it felt like the perfect introduction to the culture—engaging, relaxed, and full of local flavor. Claudia created an experience that was both enjoyable and meaningful for both of us, and I would highly recommend her and this tour to anyone looking for a great way to experience Rome."
"What a great time we had with Eleonora. She not only took us to try many Roman food classics but also mixed in history of Rome. You can tell she loves her city and country. She even gave us great dinner recommendations!!"
