Welcome to Passeggiate Romane

There is no better way to explore the Eternal City than with a Roman guide!
Your professional guide will allow you to experience Rome through the centuries - past and present, the pagan and the Christian, art and everyday life - and understand how all are inextricably combined.

Your guide can be with you for a half or a full day; your tour can be walking or by limo, minibus or public transport. In addition to tour and sightseeing services, your guide can help you with the language, the food and the shopping. Our guides are Romans who can show you typical aspects of local life. Guides know, and will show you, the real dimension of a city you will love and never forget. Our tours in Rome and our excursions out of the city are designed for the first time visitor, as well as the returning traveler who seeks a deeper understanding of Rome.

Most of the tours within the historical center of Rome are walking tours; however, we will provide our clients with transportation by limo, minibus, or bus if the service is needed or requested.

All tours are private - for your party only!

No queues to get into the Vatican or Coliseum!

(information from 1063 - Pisa, c.1110)

Buscheto, astute as Ulysses, ingenious as Dedalus, was buried with high honors in the façade of the Pisa Duomo. Architect of the building made all of marble, he was the first to have his name acclaimed by contemporaries. As stated in the epigraph on his tomb, an ancient sarcophagus, he invented machines so ingenious as to allow ten boys to lift monolithic columns that could only be moved by a thousand oxen. Buscheto was renowned in Rome too for a machine operated by ten girls to lift the Vatican obelisk. Legends apart, the ambitious projects for the Pisa Duomo emerged from a vast cultural background which presupposes, for the dome and its decorations, a knowledge of buildings located in different regions of the Mediterranean basin. The basilical design, enriched with marble from ancient buildings, shows a desire to emulate the architecture of Imperial and Early Christian Rome.

(From Italian Art Edited by Gloria Fossi, Giunti).
