Frederica was great

Frederica was great! We were a few minutes late because of traffic but she was very understanding and very kind! She was fun and engaging! Her stories were truly Roman and authentic! More than that she helped us learn more about her city and the dark side that you don’t read about on a personal level.

Lovely morning with Federica.

We had a lovely morning with Federica during the Hidden Gems of Trastevere tour with Tiber Island and Jewish Ghetto. She takes the time to tell stories about the history of places you don’t get to visit usually. Rome turns out to be very nice in January. Not too cold and not too busy. Higly recommended.

Absolutely LOVED this tour

Absolutely LOVED this tour. Seeing the Forum at night, Michelangelo piazza and architecture designs, an ancient Roman road, ancient Roman apartments and more. This tour was so interesting and was the perfect way to spend our evening. Federica was so informative, fun and very very knowledgable. 100% recommend it.

Amazing experience

We had an amazing experience Frederica was very attentive and knowledgeable,friendly, made us feel very welcoming, the whole experience was so much fun and not boring. We learnt a lot and enjoyed the time with her.

thank you so much , Simone & Justin Mckenzie.

A Journey off the Beaten Path

The tour was wonderful. Federica was very knowledgeable and warm and she made me feel very welcome. We saw places I never would have seen had I not taken this tour. There was so much to see and learn. I loved walking over the oldest bridge in Rome. This is a tour for people who want to experience more than just the traditional tourist places, this is where you can have a true Roman experience.

The Hidden Gems of Trastevere

The Hidden Gems of Trastevere, Tiber Island, and Jewish District Tour is an absolute must for anyone seeking to uncover the soul of Rome beyond its iconic landmarks. This tour masterfully blends history, culture, and local charm, offering a deeply immersive experience that feels both enlightening and intimate.

Trastevere's vibrant streets, with their ivy-clad buildings and hidden courtyards, come alive with fascinating stories, while Tiber Island provides a serene and historical respite in the heart of the bustling city. The Jewish District/Ghetto, steeped in centuries of resilience and rich tradition, is an emotional highlight, where the guide's thoughtful storytelling brings its complex history to life.

Historic Center:behind the scenes with Underground Piazza Navona

This was my 3rd tour with them. Federica is an excellent guide. Showed me things in Rome. That a normal tour would not do. Studying ancient Rome for 44yrs. Think you know alot then you do a tour. And find out there is more to Rome. It was very interactive all my questions were answered. I think we actually went a little over on time. Because there was so much to see. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO EVERYONE!! Hopefully returning 2025 and plan on more of their tours.

Caught up in the Hidden Gems of Trastevere and Jewish Quarter.

Our wonderful guide, Federica, made the tour interesting and entertaining from the outset. It was wonderful to focus on individual hidden gems with fascinating details without being overloaded by trying to cover everything. The pace between gems was perfect with something extra being pointed out all along the way. Loved the Bernini sculpture facts to begin with and our attention was kept throughout. The Jewish Quarter was presented in an interesting and respectful manner.
Loved the whole experience. Would recommend to anyone visiting Rome.

Brilliant tour of Trastevere, Tiber Island & The Jewish Ghetto

I really enjoyed this tour of Trastevere, Tiber Island and the Jewish Ghetto.
Our guide was wonderful. Unfortunately I can’t remember her name 🙈
She was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions posed to her during the tour. She was also really engaging and made the tour feel very personal. The fact this is a semi private tour is brilliant as you don’t feel lost in a big group and everything feels friendly and easy.
I would highly recommend this tour group and would be interested in booking future tours with them.
