We will be in Rome on Saturday, Sept. 21 in p.m. Would love a suggestion for a superior walking tour in very early am. on Sunday, Sept. 22, 2014. I heard the Pope has a Sunday morning blessing. Would love this to be included. We just have one full day in Roma.

The Angelus and the blessing are at midday Sunday.
I really like Context Rome for walking tours – I find them a cut above the other group walking tours. Groups are limited to six and will go with fewer. Guides are professionals in subject matter relevant to the tour. I've taken at least 20 of their tours in various cities, and all have been really good.

For any questions about Rome, I suggest you read RonInRome.com. He is an American travel agent that lived in Rome and has taken time to research every travel subject in detail.

Ricks' books that cover Rome include a good run-down of both recommended private guides and tour companies. A couple others to consider are www.enjoyrome.com and www.walksofitaly.com. See also Rick's downloadable audio tours.
