Private Tours

From €250 per group

Private tours in Rome

A local guide plans the walk around who is coming and what they want to see. Choose a route, or have one made for you.

On a private tour the guide is yours for the whole walk. You choose the places, how fast we move and how deep we go. We have walked Rome with families on holiday, couples and groups of friends.

The price is fixed for the whole group, not per person. A two-hour walking tour starts from €250 for up to 25 people. Longer walks, Colosseum visits and custom routes are priced separately, and we quote them after you send a request.

What a private tour gives you

A route built around your group

Tell us who is coming, how old they are and what they care about. A history fan and a ten-year-old need different walks, so we plan a different one.

One fixed price per group

You pay for the tour, not for each person. One guide leads up to 25 people. Bigger groups get more guides, so 26 to 50 people means two.

Guides who tell stories

Our guests rate us 4.90 out of 5. People remember a story about a poisoner or an unsolved death far longer than a list of dates.

English and Spanish

Tours run in English or Spanish. Other languages are possible on request, depending on which guides are free.

Popular routes to start from

These are starting points. We change the places, the length and the topics to fit your group.

Want something else? Tell us what your group likes and we will build a route for it, with the places, the length and the pace you choose.

One price for the whole group

A two-hour walking tour starts from €250 for up to 25 people. You pay for the tour, not for each person.

Longer tours, Colosseum visits and special routes are priced separately. We quote the exact price after you send a request.
