Our tour included the Colosseum and by booking with Rome Urban Adventures you get to skip the line which was huge!!! One tip here...wear comfortable walking shoes as the walk through... More

Hello, I am terribly sorry for what happened and I sincerely apologize. I totally understand how much upsetting this situation may have been. We immediately contacted Expedia to understand the issue: for some reason they failed in delivering us the booking and therefore we could not know about your reservation. Moreover they did not update the phone number in your... More

Seems a lot of money, but what cost can you put on being made aware of what other people miss, avoiding aimless wandering, getting the low-down from an informed local, seeing things through the eyes of an expert? Well worth it. Will do it again. More

I was in Rome for a weekend. On the first morning we went on an walking tour with Vanessa. It was a great way of starting our weekend in Rome and covering off sights and hearing tales that we would not have found out on our own. I would recommend booking an Urban Adventure in Rome if you want to... More

 Words cannot adequately describe just how much my husband and I enjoyed our fascinating, Tratevere tour.  And, what made the tour SO SPECIAL was our guide, Margherita Ciampaglia! She is extremely knowledgeable in both history and art, having been well trained in these areas.  Beyond her "book knowledge", Margherita portrays an exuberant passion towards her work, enjoys sharing her profound...

The walking tour was fabulous! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgable about Rome and it's vast history. Culture, art, politics and history of the city....she knew it all!! My traveling companion had hurt his knee the day before and she went out of her way to make sure the pace of the tour was not too fast for him.... More

This is an excellent tour - the best we had in Rome. Our tour guide, is very enthusiastic and that, coupled with her friendly and accommodating style, made for a exceptional tour which was worth every penny.

Our Urban Adventures tour of Rome was one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide was so knowledgeable, especially about the Ancient Rome and the Roman forum, since she is an archeologist, and was able to tell us things that weren't in any of the guidebooks I read. We did this tour on our first full day in Rome,... More

The tour really helped me get my bearings around the city and I went back to a number of the places we visited on the tour (such as the markets in Campo Di Fiori) a number of times during my stay.
