It is my parent's 50th wedding anniversary and as a present I would like to get them a full day private guided tour of Rome during our trip there at the end of May. They're both history buff's so a guide with some inside knowledge and access to sights would be preferred in addition to good English.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Rick recommends several local guides toward the start of his Rome guidebook/chapter, but our favorite is www.francescacaruso.com; she's popular and could be booked by now. Or try www.crisromanguide.com.
andrea,
I would also highly recommend Francesca Caruso. She has an exceptional knowledge, her tours are always interesting and she's a really nice person.
Through Eternity Tours may have what you want if Francesca is booked (or she may recommend someone).
We really liked Mia Schettino. She's extremely knowledgeable, very charming, and her English is near flawless. Apparently her new email address is miamine13@gmail.com , per this posting: Wonderful tour guide in Rome
We liked Rome so much but we only did 2 paid tours and 1 free one. Our guides with Sky ToursRome are local with excellent english and an excellent sense of humor. I do think you need a guide for the Vatican and Colosseum.
