Cost of Private Tours?

I am thinking about hiring a private tour guide in Rome for my 10 year old son and me. How much should I budget for a private tour? Half day? Whole day? Do you tip the guide afterward? If so, how much is customary? Thank you in advance...

I've done a lot of research and am going with www.througheternity.com. We are a family of six going to Rome for the first time in our lives and found out that one of the days we are going to be there that the Vatican will be closed, thanks to this tour agency, they are going to take us on 2 half day tours which was originally the "one day in Rome" tour to accomodate the closure of the Vatican and our schedules! Drop them an email! They came highly recommended!
