(23.06.11) The authorities are finally clamping down on illegal tour guides, most of whom are either well known to tourism officers, or easy to spot in amongst the crowds. They have the power to stop any tour conducted by an individual who is not carrying the official document required by law to conduct tours in Rome. We pay our licensed, legally working professional guides top hourly rates, to make sure that you fully appreciate and understand the history of Rome and the Vatican without having to worry about being stopped and losing the tour, as well as your money. Our prices are the lowest online for high quality private tours of Rome.

(09.04.11) Our Imperial Forum tour now includes the recently opened Hypogeum (underground chambers of the Colosseum), where animals and gladiators were prepared for combat, and the top (third) tier. The 'Porta Libitina' (Gate of the Dead), through which the slain were removed in antiquity, is where our guests make their descent.

(21.03.11) Enjoy Rome in the company of qualified, working Archaeologists and Art Historians. Our guides have at least 15 years experience in their chosen field.

(14.02.11) We really appreciate customer comments and feedback on TripAdvisor and similar travel communities, so if you've taken one of our tours in the recent past, please let everyone know! Thankyou very much :-)
