Hello! We are Federica and Julia, official tour guides and accompanying guides. One Roman and art historian, the other from a wonderful island, Sicily, sommelier and travel journalist. Federica: I was born on the Tiber Island, so I could see from my first day of life how beautiful my city is. I love Rome in all its aspects, including gastronomy of course. I graduated in art history with a study of Renaissance architecture. I like to discover and be able to tell history, art or architecture as anecdotes, legends and Roman customs and recommend typical foods and unknown places of the most authentic Rome. Julia: "The art of telling stories on a written page, in a guided tour or in a glass of wine": Hello, I'm Julia, a creative and visionary girl who has been living the Eternal City for 21 years. A lover of photography, I am a certified journalist since 2008. When I am not writing, I travel through history through the magnificent Roman sights of antiquity, which I tell my tourists from all over the world. I love good food between the reflections of a good glass of wine. And as a petty officer, if you ask me for advice, I can give it to you by the hectoliter. So two interesting, curious and professional guides are waiting for you in Rome, are we going to discover it together? With us, not only the itineraries of classical Rome, but also the most authentic and pleasant faces of the Eternal City. We are waiting for you !

No recomiendo para nada este tour con esta empresa, me cancelaron a último momento por falta de participantes, ahora entiendo por qué no hay muchos más interesados en su tour si son tan poco profesionales y te dejan plantado… tome otro tour gratis el mismo día con otra empresa y éramos al menos 25 personas… Nada fiables!!!
