HAVE SOME QUESTIONS?

HERE YOU FIND SOME ANSWERS...

You’ll receive then a clear proposal and price right away.

If you’re happy with it, I’ll send you the booking confirmation immediately — no paperwork, no delays.

If not, I am happy to suggest some great competitors :)

2. Do I pay in advance?

You pay always at the end of the tour — no upfront payment is required. Only tickets (e.g. Vatican or Colosseum) need to be prepaid if requested because they are not refundable.

3. Where do we meet?

I pick you up directly at your cruise ship in Civitavecchia with a big smile and holding a sign with your lastname.

4. What time will we be back at the ship?

You can choose your preferred return time. Based on your ship’s schedule, I will plan the day accordingly to maximize your time in Rome and ensure a safe return.

5. Can this itinerary be customized?

Your day is fully customizable. You can decide what to see, how much time to spend and the pace of your visit.

6. What happens in case of traffic or delays?

Rome traffic is unpredictable — that’s normal. Thanks to my experience, I know how to manage timing efficiently to ensure you return to your ship exactly when planned.

PS: I never missed a ship. Ever.

7. Do you provide tickets for the Vatican or Colosseum?

Yes, I can assist you in purchasing tickets in advance if needed.

8. We are more than 4 people - can we still book?

Yes. We accommodate groups up to 16 guests. Based on your group size, I personally select the right vehicle and organize the entire day to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience.

9. Can we bring luggage with us?

Yes. Just let me know in advance how many suitcases you have, and I will arrange the most suitable vehicle for your group.

10. What if our plans change?

Plans can change — that’s part of traveling. You can cancel your tour free of charge anytime, no questions asked. Just let me know in time so I can manage the schedule properly.

11. Is this tour suitable for children or elderly guests?

Yes. The tour can be adapted to different needs, including reduced walking and a more relaxed pace. I have extensive experience working with families and elderly guests.

12. Will we have a tour guide?

Yes. I (Dimitri) personally guide you throughout the entire day. I have many years of experience in Rome and specialize in the Colosseum and its history. You can ask any questions during the tour — I will provide clear and engaging explanations.

13. What makes this tour different from others?

No agencies. No middlemen. No confusion. Just one person with 10+ years of experience in shore excursions responsible for your entire day.

I personally take care of everything — driving, guiding, and organizing — ensuring a smooth and reliable experience from start to finish.

With only 5-star reviews and years of experience in Rome, this is a level of service you won’t easily find elsewhere.

PS: And I don’t rush or watch the clock just to finish early — I’ll make sure you experience as much of Rome as possible.

YOU WILL RECEIVE ALSO THESE 3 BONUSES

Professional Photo Shoot in Rome (Bonus #1)

Capture the magic of Rome without worrying about taking endless selfies. I’ll personally guide you to the best photo spots and take beautiful, high-quality pictures of you throughout the day. At the end of the tour, you’ll receive all your edited images by email or on a USB stick — your choice.

Secret stop (Bonus #2)

Book today and gain access to a special stop that we never reveal in advance. It’s a unique hidden location, away from crowded tourist areas, perfect for stunning photos and unforgettable moments.

No waiting, no uncertainty — just fast, direct communication whenever you need it.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Civitavecchia receives over 1.8 million transit cruise passengers per year, and demand for private tours is extremely high.

I personally handle each experience, which means availability is very limited and dates fill up quickly—especially during peak season.

If you’re interested, I strongly recommend contacting me as soon as possible to secure one of the remaining spots.
