Tour Reviews
Loved our guide! Roberto had a great sense of humor, he captivated us with his stories and showed us some less touristy areas of Rome. At the end of the tour he gave us great recommendations for food and drinks in Trastevere.
Great tour! Dmitri, our guide, spoke perfect English and made it a very memorable experience for us.
Our friends used More of Rome last summer and strongly recommended to book with them. We could really tell that these guys care about their customers and treat everyone with love and respect. From the moment we met till the moment we shook hands goodbye it was just wonderful. We booked the tour of Jewish ghetto, Catacombs and Colosseum with MOR and loved all three.
Amazing experience! Our guide was a brilliant storyteller and passionate about the history of Rome.
Great experience, it was really nice to get away from the noise and the crowds and explore hidden gems of Rome. We ended in Trastevere (hope I am spelling that correctly) and the guide gave us plenty of tips about local cuisine, ice cream shops and night-life. We had a great lunch in one of the restaurants recommended by our guide.
The guide spoke perfect English and was very personable and friendly.
Brilliant! Great stories and places.
The meeting point was very easy to find (everyone knows the “cat place” in Rome), the guide spoke perfect English and shared information and his knowledge in a very fun and entertaining way. Our family loved it so much that we booked another tour with MOR, Ostia Antica.
The tour was excellent and the guide did a great job. Three fascinating places done in 2 hours.
The tour was great, delivered in a professional manner, the guide was very knowledgeable and captivating, great way to explore places off the beaten path.
