How can I book a private tour of historic sights of Rome. I’m only in Rome two days and I understand there are huge crowds.

Welcome
I am sure the RS guidebook lists some guides
Here is a forum search for “Rome guides”

hey hey lyd2mad
when do you plan to be in rome and how many people? what historic sights are you hoping to see, have you reserved any places on their websites, do you want a walking tour or a private driver?
know that "skip the line" is different then "skip security line" (all have to go through that line)
rollingrome.com
vintage fiat 500 tour or hills of ancient rome in a golf cart
katieparla.com or francescacaruso.com
both have been mentioned her with guided tours.
theromanguy.com/ rome
romecitytours.com
getyourguide.com (this is a reseller, some like them some don't, i've used them a few times with no issues. your decision)
hope this gives you ideas and you find something that suits your fancy. there are so many tours out there, take your pick.
have a great time & enjoy

My daughter and are only in Rome 9/13 and 9/14. I have been there but since my daughter hasn’t and we have limited time, I thought only the most famous places i.e. Sistine Chapel, Vatican, etc should be her first visit. I understand that the crowds are so thick you “move forward” like a sausage machine. My sister got private tour guide for a 7:30 am tour.
