“First impressions, memorable impressions, are generally irrecoverable; they often leave one the wiser, but they rarely return in the same form”Henry James, Italian Hours
Rome the Eternal City, a city of conflicting experiences: huge, chaotic, noisy but breathtaking: a city to fall in love with!
An immense heritage, hundreds of churches, fountains, historical buildings, museums and archaeological sites : it might be confusing at first but accompanied by a local guide you’ll discover the beauty of Rome and its long and complex history.
My tours are normally on foot, which is probably the best way to explore Rome. But if you only have a very short time or walking is not for you it would be helpful to hire some private transportation, taxis or to use public transport.
I offer customized tours: relaxing strolls through the city, an in-depth visits of the Roman antiquities, visits to major museums, a food walk to taste the local flavours.

My grandmother and I took a tour of the Vatican with Alessandra during our two week trip of Rome. Piece of advice, BOOK ALESSANDRA! She was a joy to have guide us through what can be an overwhelming attraction of Rome. We learned SO much and had a great time as Alessandra told us stories and the history of the Vatican. Our three hour tour felt informational and I’m sure we wouldn’t of felt as comfortable without her as our guide! It was also fantastic having a smaller group to tour with as our experience was intimate and we felt cared for. Thank you Alessandra!
Best,
Tasia and Denise from the USA
We totally agree. Our neighbors used Alessandra on their Vatican trip in July 2017. It was our great fortune to engage her for three of the most informative and fun hours of our life. She is is a WIKI of information!
We experienced a private tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Forum with Alessandra for our family of 4 (including 2 teenagers). She was absolutely awesome! So very informative but also interesting and engaging. We would highly recommend her for any tour in Rome! Thank you Alessandra!
Peggy thank you so much.
I am glad you really enjoyed the tour.
A presto
Alessandra
