About this tour

Make Rome’s stories come alive for the whole family on a private walk through the city’s historic center. Hear the legend of Romulus and Remus, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, and take in landmarks including the Pantheon, Capitoline Hill, and Altar of the Fatherland. A licensed guide fluent in your chosen language leads the experience, with groups capped at 25 guests per guide so everyone can follow along and ask questions.

Choose a 2-hour highlights tour, a 3-hour version with a serving of gelato, or a 4.5-hour outing that pairs a 3.5-hour guided walk and gelato with a 1-hour Tiber River boat cruise. The cruise includes a multilingual audio guide; your tour guide escorts you to the dock but does not join the boat.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
