Furthermore he will give you important information about the day tour and the places that you are going to visit. Finally, let's get started your dream Private Tour !

The tour will start visiting the “Colosseum”, probably the most symbolic Italian site, where gladiators fought against each others or against beasts during Roman Era. People from all around the world come to visit it. Outside it stand up witnessing the strength of an ancient empire, inside you will find the scars of hundreds of battles, most of them just for the amusement of the rich people.  

Later on, you will be visiting the famous “Spanish steps”, this huge stairs that starts from Piazza di Spagna up to Piazza Trinità dei Monti, both of them amazing Roman squares, especially the first one where you will find the famous “Barcaccia Fountain” by the Bernini artists;

The incredible “Fontana di Trevi” one of the best known Italian artwork, here you can take a picture and admire this legendary fountain where directors, painters, poets, artists have found inspiration. Do not forget to toss a coin and make a wish;

Absolutely we cannot miss the “Pantheon”, once a temple to all the Roman gods now a christian church. A circular structure which is one of the most mysterious palace in Rome.

During your tour, your private driver will show you other attractions such as Castle St. Angelo and its bridge, the Italian Senate, The Marble Foot and Cat Street (Roman Curiosity), Trajan's Column, Imperial Fora, Trajan's Market, The Maps of the Empire, Arch of Constantine, Marcus Aurelius's Column, Parliament and Council of Ministers, St. Peter in Chains, temples of Apollo, Vesta and Janus,Quirinal Palace.

For lunch you can entrust our staff to advise you restaurants where you can eat a very Italian meal enjoying Roman atmosphere, or grab a quick bite of a not less fast lunch.

After lunch ,time permitting , we can visit a lot of beautiful and not so touristic places of this unique city, like the Gianicolo hill for a breathtaking view of the city from above, the Michelangelo Moses located in the small church of S. Peter in Chains, Piazza di Malta rich in religious signs or the ancient Appian Way. 

Before leaving your private driver please agree upon the time to leave in order to reach your cruise ship on time. During the ride to the port, you can reminisce about your lovely day mixed with ancient Roman history and one of the most famous city in the world! 

PLEASE NOTE: Security procedures at the Colosseum have recently changed. We have just been advised that the Colosseum has changed their security policy and has now implemented a metal detector which all guests must pass through. This will effect entrance to the Colosseum as even with skip the line entrance tickets, all guests entering must pass through the metal detector. The length of this line will be dependent upon tourist volume each day, however, we do want to advise that at this time, in low tourist season, with the implementation of the metal detector, the wait to enter is considerable and will affect the timing available to see other sites in Rome. 

On the first sunday of the month, the visit to the Colosseum is free of charge (we can't purchase “Fast track entrance” tickets) , we advise you not to visit it on this day in order to avoid waste of time in the queue (approx 2 hrs queue).

Hands down, the best tour of our family trip ! Gio was amazing and made the day most memorable and the one we speak of most often. Can not wait to be able to travel again and go back and see more with Gio and Amalfi Coast Tours! Like traveling with family:)

from Ft. McCoy

I have taken many tours all over the world and this was one of the most fun throughout this adventure along the Amalfi Coast. Giovanni is very knowledgeable and his animated and infectious personality made for a wonderful week. When we return, we will use them again and I would highly recommend them.

Excellent tour!! Best tour company in Sorrento!!

from Vancouver, WA

Five of us took a cruise in 2019. We hired a private guide in each port. Giovanni was definitely the best guide, EVER. We all just loved our day with him. He is such fun and knowledgeable. We have stayed in touch with him and hope to return. If ever in Italy, get in touch with Giovanni, you will not be disappointed!

from New Jersey

Gio was the best tour guide. He was charming, funny, informative and tailored our tour to our specific needs. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable at all times and showed us the true amalfi coast from someone who has lived in the area of all of his life. Breathtaking! It was also so much fun that he played Italian music in the car and sang! We are hoping to come back next summer and Gio will be at the top of our list!

from Colchester

Excellent service and would highly recommend!

from Jupiter

If you are going to the Amalfi Coast you MUST book Giovanni!!!
