My husband and I spent 5 days in Rome out of which we spent almost two days discovering Rome, its historical and cultural heritage with tour guide RENATA. Renata is a combination of professionalism and easy going. We gave her a few instructions about what we expect, and she followed them with such ease and comfort. Her knowledge and passion about Rome and its history is remarkable. Rome’s history is impressive and rich. She found a way to make it easy to understand, very interesting and fun as well. We visited the Colosseum, Palatin hill, Forum and Vatican with its Museums. She respected all the time constraints, she was very pleasant and easy to talk to. She made sure we didn’t have to be bothered with buying tickets, we didn’t stand in line for entering any of these sites, despite the crowd surrounding us.
I strongly recommend Renata to take you around Rome, you will be more than satisfied!
