Fabio was a fantastic tour guide for our visit to the Palatine Hill, Roman Forum, and the Colosseum. He was personable, engaging, and provided us a wealth of information on ancient Rome. We will recommend him to all our friends visiting Italy. Thank you Fabio for a truly remarkable experience!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your lovely words! All the best

We really appreciated Fabio's accommodation. He was already tightly booked so he suggested things we should see prior to our tour, which gave us more knowledge and made us appreciate his tour even more. Fabio is very knowledgeable about the information he provides and was able to make it equally as interesting for my wife who had not studied this part of history as I had. Thank Fabio for a great tour!

We were a party of 13, some of us visiting Rome for the first time and others who had been many times, but we all agreed that Fabio was a brilliant guide. He showed us the Forum and Palatine on one day and also gave us a 2 hour walking tour of the historic city centre. His friendly, approachable manner, wide ranging knowledge and perfect English make him the ideal Rome guide. He really brings all that incredible history alive. We really enjoyed our time with Fabio!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Greg, thank you so much for your review. I hope to see you here again next time !

Fabio was an excellent guide and our group of 6 would highly recommend him. He was extremely knowledgeable, patient and obviously proud of his home city, Rome. Fabio recommended a restaurant near the Vatican which was excellent and he made the reservation for us which we all appreciated.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for having me as your guide. Thanks for your positive reviews. I also had a good time and found pleasure in explaining and showing around the complexity and oddities of Rome to curios, and well travelled people like you. All the best!

Fabio is great tour guide. We were in Rome for only a couple of days but in addition to the major sites, we saw a castle and a privately owned major painting collection. We also had two really good lunches at restaurants he took us two.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Skai! I’m glad you had a good time. All the best!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your review Joel, I am happy you and your group had a good time here in Rome and a safe journey. My major concern was to make sure we would fit in just everything we had arranged. As you have said keeping the right schedule during shore excursion is important because otherwise the risk is to be late to board back on the ship. Unfortunately public bathrooms aren’t many here in the city that is why I made sure the drivers would stop on the way from the harbor to Rome.

We loved our tour of Ancient Rome with Fabio. It was the highlight of our trip to Italy! He was very accommodating with our schedule and questions. He is so knowledgeable about the history of the times that extends far beyond the actual structures. I would highly recommend Fabio for any of your touring needs. We wouldn't hesitate to work with him again on any future trips to Italy. Mille grazie!

Fabio is an excellent guide - he is very pleasant, has an impressive knowledge on art and history, was reachable and flexible in planning our two and a half days tour in Rome, gave us useful recommendations for good local restaurants and for additional activities. Our party included a senior and a teen ager and we very much enjoyed our tours in Rome despite the hot and humid weather. We strongly recommend touring Rome with Fabio Claudio Pinelli.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Hello Ora, thank you for the very positive review, I am sorry about the hassles of purchasing tickets. All the best Fabio

We only had two days in Rome and the Rome in One Day Walking Tour was perfect for us. We would recommend Fabio for this tour if you're a history buff or don't actually know much about art. Fabio pointed out things during the Vatican museum tour that had a lot of significance which we wouldn't have really picked up on our own. Overall we learned a lot and enjoyed the experience.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much! It was great touring you around in Rome. Hope to see you soon.

My family and I loved our tours with Fabio! Fabio was amazing! He has an extensive knowledge of art, art history, and archaeology, and a fun and interesting way to present the information, so both my husband and I as well as our two teenage sons loved the tours. Fabio was also extremely helpful helping me plan the tours and was also happy to make last minute changes to the tours that we requested. Thanks Fabio!

Fabio was a terrific guide in Rome! We had a full day together, but had to rearrange our start time based on when we could get tickets to the Vatican and Colosseum (we got those tickets independently, but Fabio provided very specific instructions to make it easy). He really knows his stuff, was engaging and interesting, and adjusted to focus on things we were most interested in. Great day in Rome!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for your positive review. I hope to see you again in Rome. All the best

Fabio was a fantastic guide! We would give him 10 stars, if possible. Our entire group (5 people, ages 6 to 70) thoroughly enjoyed our entire day in Rome. Fabio was beyond a wealth of knowledge!!! He was flexible reliable, professional, patient, and a good communicator. There was an unexpected situation at the Colosseum, and Fabio didn't waste a minute's time rearranging the plan to get us into the Roman Forum, which was possibly the highlight of our day. We are grateful for our day with Fabio!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much Wendi ! I am glad you had a good time in Rome. All the best to you and your family.

Fabio was a special treat. We had a day long walking tour in which he toured us around Rome pointing out special buildings, artworks and historically significant locales. He was extremely knowledgeable in all arenas, from Ancient Rome to present day, and expressed this knowledge in clear and understandable language. We felt we were in the company of a friend as he made our time together feel as such. I would highly recommend booking with Fabio for whatever your special interests in Rome might be.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much Polly and Karen, It is always a pleasure talking about and showing the beauty of Rome to those who indeed appreciate art and history! I also had a very nice day with you. Thank you Fabio
