Our night tour took us to the best spots to appreciate the beauty of Rome at night. I was able to take memorable photographs that will enhance our memory of our visit to Rome. Dino gave us a complete historical foundation for Rome and the sights we visited. Highly recommended!

Date: Apr 15/23

If I could give Dino 10 stars I would. This tour was something we will never forget. The Vatican Museum, The Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica! No line. No waiting. Just amazing. The time Dino spent with us prior to entering preparing us for what we were about to experience was very educational and informative. I know there are many tours available, but if he's available on your dates, do not wait and just book him. Communication was A+ and made sure everyone in our group had a wonderful time.

We booked this tour for our 1st afternoon in Rome w/ Dino. It was a perfect way to get acclimated with the area and we immediately found ourselves in awe of Rome. Dino is fantastic. Do not hesitate one bit. He's passionate and very knowledgeable. This tour is full of fountains, incredible churches and even helped us point out places to visit during our stay. I can't say enough about Dino. You will not be disappointed. Just book him and save yourself the trouble. Trust me

Book Dino. It will be the best money spent in Rome. Everything about his tour is fantastic. He is unbelievably knowledgeable and prepared. He has a passion for Roman history and is genuinely excited to share it. He booked all our tickets ahead of time and we did not wait in line for anything. He is a true professional. I cannot imagine a better guide to spend the day with. Everyone, including our two teenaged boys, loved this tour. Packed with so much history and attention. Personable and fun. A true gem.

Tour: #31341, The Hidden Rome - Off The Beaten Path Tour, Rome, Lazio, Italy    view tour
Date: Feb 27/23

This Off The Beaten Path Tour was so much fun and amazing. You do have to see the usual tourist sites, but once done, let Dino guide you to some amazingly accessible sites. From the earliest churches, to Roman ruins, crypts beneath churches, neighborhoods and more. Interspersed with the tour, he'll show you before and after maps which give you a greater understanding. He'll show you curiosities that the tourist will never see or understand.

Dino made Ancient Rome come to life. His passion for history and art are above measure. We loved when Dino would hold up a finger and say…."here's another curiosity." The ancient ruins including the Colosseum were simply amazing. We will use Dino again.

Our first time tour of the Vatican was wonderful thanks to Dino. His knowledge of people, dates and events is only surpassed by his knowledge of art. If you want the best guide of The Vatican, give Dino a call. You will not regret.,

Adding to my previous comment about Rome tour, I would like to mark some more points. Thanks to Dino for his preparations for the tour. During our visit to the Sistine Chapel we already knew, what should we notice in this beautiful place. And the other important thing. Our small daughter was capricious during this day and we understand how hard is for the guide when your clients are distracted every minute. But Dino has managed to save fluidity of narration, was super patient and told both of us a lot!

Date: Jan 26/23

It was a great day in the eternal Rome. Dino was perfect, he helped us to investigate so many things about Rome in one day, to immerse into the atmosphere of different ages and find a huge amount of curiosities, which are unseen for usual tourists. We couldn't even imagine, that one person can have such an encyclopedic knowledge of Roman history and at the same time introduce it in an astonishing manner. It was an incredible walk, Dino, hope to see you once more in other tours, which you guide.

Dino was such a delight on our first trip to Rome we knew we had to book him again for our family vacation. He is a fountain of interesting history and we learned a lot of new information during our second time with him. As a bonus he also directed us to some local gems for lunch. We highly recommend getting to know some of Rome's rich history over an afternoon with Dino as your guide.

His passion for the history of Christianity, and ability to reconnect facts and dates was amazing!

Brilliant night tour of Rome. We are 4 member family with one 8 year old and another 2 year old boy. Dino made sure we are comfortable and relaxed through out. He has fantastic knowledge of the city and made sure to take us to all the key spots to have fantastic night view of Rome. He explained all the behind the scene facts and off course helped us to take lots of family photos. He is passionate, caring and insightful. We loved it.

Dino was a professional and engaging tour guide with a great depth of knowledge. In fact he is a PhD! He shared interesting stories about the leaders and life in ancient Roman times, and had many images on his iPad as well as colorful visual aids that augmented our understanding of what once stood in the sites we walked through. My son, husband and I learned a lot in three hours with Dino. He has a captivating voice and is very courteous too. Highly recommend!

Our group of four adults did Dino's night tour of Rome's major attractions. He was very accommodating to our interests. We saved this tour to our last night in Rome and it was a fantastic way to end our visit. Everything really does look magical at night. I highly recommend both Dino and this tour.

This was our second time touring with Dino. Learned new things about the Colosseum which we first toured with him 7 yrs ago, plus paid a visit to St Clements Basilica. What a treat. Incredible to be walking on herringbone floor laid almost 2,000 years ago. Dino is very knowledgeable about all aspects of Roman history but focused his time with us on the Catholic aspects of Rome because that's what we asked him to do when we made our reservation (he was Pope Benedict's alter boy). Great tour; truly tailored

What a wonderful day with Dino. He picked us up at our hotel and took a cab over to the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome. What a great tour, Dino really knows the history of this area. We visited Basilica of Santa Maria, Church of Santa Cecilia, and the Basilica of San Crisogono. Then we took a cab back to visit the Borghese Gallery and gardens. Dino brings to life the artworks of this magnificent gallery. Dino will individualize your tour to your interests and make your tour special!

We loved every minute of our VIP private Rome by night tour with Dino and our driver. From the first stop, high on a hill overlooking Rome, we watched the sunset and the lights of Rome appear. It was magical. From there we made many stops for viewing and pictures that were amazing at the most famous sites. Our driver knew the less crowded streets to get us right up to the sites and Dino gave us interesting historical information. This was our 4th time to Rome and was worth it to see so much at night.

Dino M was an awesome tour guide on our tour of Rome. An expert and historian of vast depth, he guided us through the Vatican Museum, St Peter's Basilica, St Peter's Square, the key sites of Rome Piazzas, fountains, the imperial foro, and the Colosseum. We didn't wait for anything, and he ensured we were fed, hydrated, and on schedule. Our best photos were taken by Dino, and he made a long day fun, educational, and the highlight of our vacation. We will recommend Dino to anyone we know going to Rome.

Dino was excellent on our Vatican, Sistine Chapel tour. His ability to describe the role of the Catholic Church through history is excellent, and he took us to many highlights in the Museum. Dino comes prepared with a backpack full of helpful maps, pictures, and other material. Dino studied at the Vatican to complete his doctorate, so he has first hand experiences to share as well. Wonderful guide! I'd highly recommend booking with Dino.
