“Saved us from being overcharged on day one”
The airport taxi information saved us from being overcharged on day one. The driver tried charging us more but we knew the fixed price already. So glad we had this before we landed. Super friendly team, grazie!
“Like having a personal tour guide with them the whole trip”
I bought this guide for my parents who were visiting Rome for the first time at 68 and 71. They said it was like having a personal tour guide with them the whole trip. I’m grateful I could relax and not worry about them being scammed.
“Still learned things we didn’t know”
We’ve been to Rome twice before and still learned things we didn’t know. Everything becomes so much easier when you understand the best way to book tickets, times to avoid crowds, the most incredible food! We really felt like we had a friend on our side, thank you Rome Dream Guide!

“We ate like locals every single night”
We ate like locals every single night and found some beautiful places away from all the crowds. We found my new favourite restaurant in Rome, and we can use the guide again when we come back next time! I appreciated the multiple language selections inside.
“We love the What’s On section”
We have been to Rome many times but always seem to miss events that we didn’t know were happening until we see reels posted after on social media! We love the What’s On section, we were able to attend the Genzano flower festival, outdoor cinema and Tim Summer Hits! Great guide!
“I could relax and enjoy Rome”
I really appreciate the team at Rome Dream Guide helping me to avoid tourist traps and know what to look for, to avoid scams. I felt like I could relax and enjoy Rome knowing how it works, without second guessing everything.
The flights. The hotel. The time off work. One disappointing meal, a wasted afternoon or a sold-out ticket can cost more than the guide itself. For a 5-day trip, that is less than €10 a day, for your whole trip.
