Date: May 3/23

What a refreshing tour! After dealing with the crowds of tourists in the central city, it was a pleasure to see a quiet neighborhood where real Romans live. Nicola was a pleasure to spend time with. He was informative and friendly. This is not a tour for the "typical" tourist, but if you want something unique this is your tour!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: It was great to spend time with you and your friend! Have a nice stay in Naples ;)

Date: Mar 26/23

Electric bikes were an easy and fun way to get an overview of Rome's historical sites and beautiful overlooks. Nicola is a wonderful local guide and freely shared his hometown knowledge and passion for biking in Rome. His ability to get us safely around Rome through spring break crowds was amazing and provided perspectives of less traveled streets and shortcuts. We later returned to some of those places to enjoy the neighborhood restaurants and sites. Highly recommended.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Dear Dianne,thank you so much for the nice review!!

Date: Jul 25/22

Nicola was an excellent guide. The bike tour was amazing. He suggested that we use electric bikes which was an excellent idea. The country side was amazing. He kept our family safe and tailored the bike ride to us. Was an amazing day and I would definitely do it again. The swim in the lakes was very refreshing. I can not thank him enough for the great day.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Dear Loran, thank so much about the wonderful review! I wait you for the next tour around Rome:)

An amazing overview of all the famous sites of Rome. We would not have been able to do this without Nicola. The streets are very confusing, but he navigated us quickly and recommended electric bikes for the hot day which made it super easy. He is friendly and knowledgeable and a true local. Highly recommend this excursion.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much Jonathan!

Both of my tours, Food and Aperitivo with Nicola were incredibly fun. I felt like I had the opportunity to get a great sense of Roma food and culture. Nicola is delightful to talk with and I'm grateful for his knowledge of the city. He made the tour very special. I highly recommend.

Nicolas gave my wife and I a lovely tour of the the Testaccio rione, an area that had been the port of ancient Rome, then industrial Rome in the 1800's and now an artistic area. The tour was both relaxed and very informative, and a nice counterpoint to the intense experiences in visiting the ancient roman tourist attractions.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Dick ;)

The tour with Nicola was amazing. It is definitely a different experience but if you are looking to cover all the major monuments or attractions of Rome with great photo opportunities in a single 3 hour tour than this is for you. The electric bikes make it quite easy for even the most beginner traveler. And if biking through Rome makes you uneasy, Nicola is a great guide and keeps you quite safe and looked after. The experience is exhilarating. Highly recommend!!!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Arthur it was a pleasure for me to show and to tell about my city. Have a great day. Nicola

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Dear Lori, your son and his friends are really nice guys, curious and interested, which is not to be taken for granted. I really enjoyed myself with them and I'm very happy that they enjoyed it. See you sonn then :) Ciao from Rome!

We anticpated a tour with nibble and drink stops guided by a local through a small neighborhood to get the feel for "the real Italy." What we got was a backroom drink w/peanuts and chips, a long walk thru a deserted meat factory area that had us wondering if we were going to be mugged. We were then lead around thru a nearly deserted parking lot with no other food or drinks until the end when he dumped us at a restaurant where he seeminly knew the owners. It was literally the worst tour ever.

Nicola could not have been a better guide and host. He navigated us effortlessly through traffic. The entire time I felt safe and confident on good quality bikes. He knows his city well. We saw sweeping vistas, charming neighborhoods and historic points of interest. We could not have been more pleased with this tour. It is the perfect introduction to Rome with Nicola as the perfect host.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Dear Sarah, thank you so much for your nice review! I do my best to make my guest feel confortable. I wish you and Andy all the best. Nicola

Nicola was a fantastic guide, taking my wife and I on a terrific tour through an area of Rome far less frequently explored--and in a way as wheelchair-accessible as the city of Rome would allow. If you like seeing a side of Rome well beyond what other tourists see and other tours offer, I can't recommend this enough.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Harrison for your nice feedback, it was great to have you in Rome. All the best. Nicola

Date: Aug 26/19

This 2 days tour is really fantastic. Nicola my tour guide did an excellent job. The first day we visited the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, St. Peter Basilica, St. Peter Square, The colosseum, the Forum, Palatine Hill. The 2nd day, The Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and a lot more. I got a limited time to visit Rome but he was able to show me around the top tourist attraction. Ask Nicola for this tour guys. He is highly recommended and you'll exceed your expectation. Thanks Nicola.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for your nice feedback Arnel. I look forward to meet you again if you will come to Rome for a second time. All the best. Nicola

Wow! Come hungry and prepared for an "arm workout" in a full on, authentic kitchen experience. Making and eating your own fresh pasta in the hosts home under the fun and friendly eye of an experienced Italian chef is an incredible way to eat and learn and immerse in the Italian experience.

Had a lovely time seeing parts of Rome you typically would not see as a tourist. Nicola is has a very chill personality and the is based on your preferences. We saw some great graffiti, visited a food market and a beautiful cemetery. It was a very hot day but he made sure to keep a nice pace in the shaded areas. Very thoughtful.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thanks a lot for the nice feedback. Have nice trips all over the world!

Nicola met us at the suggested location and took us on a walking tour of the Testaccio and Ostiense districts. He did an excellent job of introducing us to these areas that we would never have found on our own. He's interesting and friendly! This tour was a great complement to the traditional tours of the more well known areas of Rome.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Dear Susan, thank you for the review. It was nice to show you around!!
