When you hit the road and land in a new city like Rome, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Rome spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Rome.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Rome, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Rome awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Rome, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Rome. Get ready to explore like a local!

Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our family had an absolutely wonderful time with Lia as our guide through the Colosseum and Forum! She was full of information, very knowledgeable of all the history, and kept us all very engaged, including our two teenage daughters who really enjoyed listening to and being with her the entire time. I would highly recommend Lia for this tour and/or any other tour that she offers! Mollie B."
"We had a group of 4. My mother is 83 and it was over 90 degrees on our tour day. Paola tailored our tour which gave my my mother ample time to sit and rest. Paola was very knowledgeable of the foods we tried and tasted. I highly recommend her for all tours "
"Eleonora was an awesome tour guide. We skipped lines, she pulled us into less crowded areas and provided a lot of cool insight into the colosseum! Would definitely recommend! "
"We had a great day with Paolo and learned a lot that we didn’t know. He was accommodating with what we wanted to see and learn about, including extra things we should see in the city and wider locations. He also set a good pace given the hot 37 degree day. I would highly recommend him for a tour. "
"From 10,000 miles away we were taken in by a whirlwind of Italian charm intelligence and passion. She is a spirit as much as a guide. An archaeologist. A historian. An art lover. A mother. A daughter. A philosopher and forever student of spirituality. A teacher and an example to our renaissance daughter of the power of feminine independence. Three hours was too short to soak in the immense knowledge of art, the Vatican, and the obvious deep love of Rome. The genuine joy of life with reverence and humor is infectious. Love, the Broome Family"
"Our family group (2 adults and 3 teens) had a terrific time with Claudia. She organised a very interesting and delicious tour of Rome for us, covering both sweet and savoury specialities. She also helped us with restaurant suggestions for the evening and recommended places to come back and check out on another day (our tour was early in the morning on a Saturday so not everything was open). She is also a very warm and funny person and it was a pleasure to spend some time in her company. "
"Paola was a fantastic guide. She took us to several amazing spots that were not touristy and super local. We tried some amazing dishes, including Porchetta, pasta, pizza, olive oil, prosciutto, granita, and much more. She is super knowledgeable about Rome cuisine and was a fantastic person to spend several hours with. I would absolutely recommend choosing her as your guide. "
"Pietro has encyclopedic knowledge of the colosseum and the forum. He made the areas come alive with fascinating stories and facts while effortlessly guiding us through the crowds. Highly recommend "
"Lia was super sweet and customized our tour based on our preferences. She took us to see some hidden gems of Rome and is full of fun facts and history knowledge."
"We did two tours as a family (a teen and two young adult kids) with Francesca. She was funny, knowledgeable, answered our million questions and knew how to navigate everything so that we could see everything we wanted despite our short time and big crowds. She also helped us when one of kids wasn’t feeling well - took us to a pharmacy and helped translate for us to get the right medication for him. I highly and without hesitation recommend her - 10 out of 10! "
