Knowledgable and Friendly

Alessandro was a wonderful, enthusiastic and knowledgable guide. We had a wonderful time and he did a terrific job of putting all of the amazing things we saw on the tour in the context of Rome's rich and deep history. Thank you!

Incredible for Photos

My partner’s a photographer and our guide timed everything so we caught amazing light inside the Colosseum. He even showed us spots for panoramic shots of the Forum.

Worth Every Penny for the Privacy

We almost booked a group tour but chose LivTours instead — thank goodness! No fighting for space or trying to hear over a big crowd. Just us, our guide, and 2,000 years of stories.

Great Way to Beat the Heat

Rome can be scorching in summer but our guide knew shady spots and water fountains. We stayed comfortable while exploring this stunning piece of history.

Made History Fun Again

Never thought my husband would be so into Roman ruins, but our guide's stories had him hooked! We both learned so much without feeling lectured.

A Birthday to Remember

I surprised my dad with this private LivTours experience for his 60th. Our guide was engaging and kept my dad enthralled with tales of gladiators and emperors.

Felt Like Traveling Back in Time

I booked this solo and was blown away. Our guide painted such clear pictures of ancient spectacles that I almost heard the roar of the crowds!

So Much Better Than a Big Group

This was our first private tour and now we’re spoiled for life. Our kids asked questions freely and our guide had the patience of a saint.

Rome Off the Beaten Path

LivTours really delivers something special. Our guide showed us hidden corners behind the Arch of Constantine and tucked-away viewpoints. You won’t get that in a big group.

A Step Back in Time with LivTours

Our private tour with Giulia was nothing short of magical. She brought the ruins of the Roman Forum to life with stories about politics, trade, and daily life in ancient Rome. Walking through the Colosseum without the long lines was an absolute highlight, and standing where gladiators once fought gave me chills. Palatine Hill’s sweeping views over the city were breathtaking.
