Luke picked us up from the cruise port and showed us amazing sights in Rome that weren’t busy at all. Very intimate tour of Rome! Luke knows the streets like the back of his hand. Despite a marathon going on, we zipped through the back streets and saw such amazing sights up close and personal. Luke is very flexible and made our day so amazing and memorable. He is a very safe driver too.”

You get free time for lunch and shopping, but site entry is generally not included. Guides such as Marco, Andrea, Katya, and Hilenia have earned strong praise.
