We really enjoyed our visit to St. Peter's Basilica. Our guide spoke with great enthusiasm throughout the entire visit. He shared fun facts and tips, and gave us an expert yet not unnecessarily long explanation about everything. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Our English speaking tour guide - Angela? Gave us a wonderful guided tour of the basilica. She helped us through the security and then gave us a witty and engaging tour. It was well worth it.

It's easy to find. On the day we arrived, we took a full tour without getting off the bus to see the main sights. It's a wonderful way to get a glimpse of the capital and its main monuments.

Ambra was amazing. We were a large family with some older people that slowed us down and she was very patient helped out where she could and most importantly had a ton of knowledge. So glad she was our tour guide for this visit

During my visit to Rome, I decided to try the sightseeing bus, and it was one of the best decisions I made. Since it was my first time in the city, it really helped me find my way around and see the main tourist attractions without the stress of constantly having to look for transportation. I really liked being able to hop on and off at the stops whenever I wanted. One moment I was visiting the Colosseum, and later I was already on my way to the Vatican area. The buses ran frequently, so I never had to wait very long. The audio commentary during the tour was also a pleasant surprise, as it explained the history of the monuments in a simple and interesting way. The upper, open-air deck was probably my favorite part. Seeing Rome from that angle and being able to take photos as the bus made its way through the streets was a very special experience. Plus, the staff were friendly and always available to help whenever I had a question. Overall, I was really satisfied with the experience. For anyone visiting Rome for the first time, I think it’s a practical, comfortable, and fun way to explore the city. I’d use this service again without a second thought, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to make the most of their visit.
