Tour Guide for Rome Needed Please

[WorktoHoliday99]

As above, can anyone please recommend a tour guide company for Rome (for husband, 12 year old son and myself), ideally with something that a young teen would enjoy.

 

Many thanks

Can you give a few more specifics?

 

Are you looking for a driver from Civitavecchia for a day trip into Rome? Or will you be staying in Rome?

 

Do you want a private tour? Small group walking tour?

 

There are a number of reputable agencies in Rome that offer interesting tours that might appeal to young teens, everything from tours of various underground sites, to visits to gladiator schools to "Angels and Demons" tours. Depends on your time, budget and interests....

 

Best idea is to do some research on existing tours and see what interests you. If you want to do a private driver from Civitavecchia, it will be $$$$ but you can personalize the day with the things you want to see most.

There are many companies that offer private tours as well as group tours. We have used these companies for private tours in Rome and have enjoyed them all.

We have used this company for group tours in Rome and also enjoyed them. These tours are walking tours.

We have used Rome in Limo and Rome Cabs with excellent results. Great comprehensive tours and good drivers/guides. Can't go wrong with either.

First, sorry for taking so long to get back on the forum. Work had to take priority, sadly.

 

Second, thanks for all the leads, I will look into them and hopefully find what we are looking for - once we know what that it, of course.

 

Cheers.

We were extremely pleased with Aldo Monti and Yourtourinitaly.com You can tailor your day with them and see whatever you want. The Vatican museum takes a while to get through and can be very crowded. This may not excite your 12 year old DS, so you may want to exclude so that you have more time to spend at St. Peter's Basilica, the Coliseum, the Roman Forum, etc. My teens (and us too) also enjoyed the Vatican scavi tour, which takes you to the tomb of St. Peter 40 ft. below the Basilica. Really cool and something your DH will remember for the rest of his life.

I have used joe banana limos and italytoursharing.com

 

Great variety of tours offered and wonderful to deal with especially because I change my mind a lot and they were very accommodating.
