The tour guide was knowledgeable and provided detailed information taking us do all the major sites including the Colosseum, Sistine Chapel, Pantheon and others. The trip was well planned for us and all in all a delightful experience. Of note for cruise passengers that sign up for a Rome tour, abort a 70 mile drive,the driver is not allowed to leave the vehicle to offer any guide services and a separate guide must be separately arranged or you are dropped off on your own at the various sites. Our tour provided for complete coverage seamlessly. Other tours may offer complete service but I found none that met our needs

Davide was an excellent tour guide for my group of friends on an early Saturday morning. It was obvious that he loved his job and it showed through the history he walked us through during the entire tour. I would highly recommend any tour with Davide and if the Vatican is on your bucket list, then early morning access is the tour you want. Happy travels!

Test drive with Ferrari 488 (red color) and Lamborghini Huracan (white color). Good hospitality. Very nice team. Both cars were clean and with a very good driving experience. They have answered all questsions before the test drive. Hint: If you have a problem to play their video recordings which they sell in addition to the driving by minutes, please try using VLC Player on PC.

I arrived at this place, and was inmediately greated very well by one of the drivers and the sales rep: Timothy. The different experiences where explained to me, and I was given a choice of some amazing machines. After the test drive - i was literally still shaking of the adrenaline! My co-pilot, a great Dutch guy living in Maranello (Chris i think, cant remember his name unfortunatelly) was really great! Pros - get the 30min or more test-drive the others are too short! - get the pictures after, they are really very good quality and some great pics Cons - the lady at the front desk clearly did not want to be there... i had to remind her I was there for an amazing experience, and I expected at least.. a smile on her face, which was the oposite that i got.. she was quite rude, when I asked something for a second time. Did not make upset, i mean.. i just drove a ferrari.. but was the only thing that did not make me give them 5 stars. On the way back I was very excited to see the video... which "apparently the card was full" and I did not get. SO NEXT TIME... CHECK THE CAMARA IS ON AND RECORDING! all in all.. an amazing experience... would just hope the girl at the front desk was nicer and paid more attention because the video would have been nice.

When in Maranello and then at the Ferrari Museum you will be welcomed by a staff member in the typical red Ferrari outift that is also worn on the racecourses.

The exhibition is very interesting, and next to nice stories you’ll also find some interesting photographs. You will visit the huge barrels and old casks of an acetaia ancient rooms, learning all phases of production, surrounded by the perfumes of aged balsamic, for an experience involving all senses.

We wished we could see Pope Francis but we could never expected we could see him so closely thanks to Rossana great effort. Rossana and our driver Luigi are both great persons and the visit to the Pope very well organized. They both were professional, supportive, engaging and very helpful. Rossana took really a great effort to make the visit tailored to our needs and she had great sense of humour. Big thanks to R and L. We would highly recommend this tour.

Don't miss the opportunity to discover how the Ferrari myth started and the evolution of cars. But the "cherry on the cake" , as we say in Italy, is the guided facotyr tour with a shuttle-bus: it drives you around the main building of the "Cittadella" (small city), how the factory is called. MIN. PEOPLE REQUESTED: 2

Inclusions: Ferrari Museum Visit, Enzo Ferrari Museum Visit, Ferrari Factory and Fiorano Track Bus tour, Personal assistant and personal badge, Private transportation, Lunch with local food, beverages included

Exclusions: Test Drive or Track Driving Experience
