We had a private tour as a couple. Alessandro was our amazing guide! He picked us up at the port on time and we drove straight to Rome. He was an excellent driver, showed us all of the highlights, dropped us off at various areas and picked us up on time. We then went to the Vatican where we met our guide Paulo. We had a private tour by a highly educated guide. We were able to skip the line and avoid crowds. Private Tours May cost a bit more but they are worth every cent!! Our day was amazing!

Andrea has been an amazing guide for our visit to Pompeii. We had tickets for 10am and the tour was scheduled to start at 11am. Andrea went out of his way to accommodate us by arranging with the other members of the group to also be there for 10am and check which parking spot and entry would work with our tickets. I appreciated his deep knowledge and relaxed, engaging style. He brought Pompeii to life. It felt more like visiting Pompeii with a good friend who is an expert. Fantastic experience. Thank you!
