Tours in Rome (before cruise)

[Disneygirlxo91]

Hello!

I’m looking for suggestions on tour companies in Rome prior to our med cruise this coming summer!

Thanks in Advance!

We've used Driver in Rome during our Med cruise. Since then we almost exclusively use Tours by Local, no matter where we travel.

With Driver in Rome you had to bring cash to pay the guide and driver the day of your tour. The nice thing with Tours by Locals is that you can book on their website and pay with your credit card in US Dollars before you leave home.

Both companies used excellent guides and drivers.

We have a reservation with Tourist Italy before the Mediterranean cruise this summer. Lots of options available on length of tour and start date, multiple levels of hotel options, and they will pick us up at the airport at the start and drop us at Civitavecchia at the end (we chose to end the day before so we aren't worried about the third party company getting us there for a PAT.)

They also have single day tour packages if you have the hotel and/or are just looking for a quick tour.

That said, while the reviews I've found look good we've never used them before.

We used Liv Tours this past summer and had an amazing time with a great tour guide, https://livtours.com/tours/vip-rome-in-a-day-private-tour-city-highlights/

The other tour we really enjoyed was this e-bike tour, https://www.topbikerental.com/rome-bike-tours/castel-gandolfo . My son and husband are big athletes, I am not. All three of us enjoyed it and say it was one of the best parts of our trip.

We used Rome in Limo for a day-long shore excursion in Rome a few years ago.
We used Joe Banana Tours for a day near Naples and for a post-cruise day in Tivoli and Villa Adriano.
We did a 2 hour “Rome at Twilight” walking tour with Through Eternity.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use any of them again.

I wasn't going to reply because our Med cruise was back in 2013 and a lot could change since then, but I'm glad to see that Rome in Limo is still around and doing well. We used them for our tours to Florence/Pisa, Rome, and Naples/Positano.
They were fabulous and they offered a multi-tour discount and also a discount if we pre-paid in cash. For that we had to wire money to an account in Miami and I would have swore it was all some scam except I had read from others on the Disboards who did just that with no problems. They marked our reservations paid in full and that was a lot less Euros we needed to carry around.

I used get your guide and Klook to book tours when in Rome before our med cruise cruise this summer. We booked the underground coliseum/forum tour, a night walking tour, and the Vatican tour. I have used these two sites on lots of our travels around the world and have never been disappointed.
