“Again anytime! ”
It's great when the tour guide himself is enthusiastic about his content. He really took us along with him. There were actually only three of us as participants, but that was great because we spent the afternoon together almost as if we were in private, with lots of information and stories about ancient Rome. It was really very exciting!

“Best Walking Tour Ever ”
I would recommend anyone to join Joey on one of his walking tours. It was educating and entertaining from minute one. We learned so much about the city within the two and a half hours and discovered places that we had never been to or overlooked during our stay. We couldn’t have imagined a better and funnier guide.

“Interesting tour, great guide”
Very glad I booked this tour for my husband and myself, great prompt communication from Joey. Turned out to be a private tour as no other people turned up so we had a fantastic one on one tour showing us areas we'd never have known about. Joey really knows his history and was passionate about showing us a unique part of Rome. Saw some cute alleyways, received plenty of interesting facts about the buildings, identities and families of Rome. Then at the end we were offered suggestions for further places of interest for us to seek out ourselves. Thank you Joey
