WHO WE ARE
We’ve provided insightful and entertaining Rome Tours across the entire world most stunning cities for 23 years. It all began in 2000 with one tour aimed at introducing travelers to a different side of Italy’s capital: the Heart of Rome. Our founder and CEO, Max Parini wanted to show Rome in a new light and was passionate about giving travelers an incredible, memorable experience in the Eternal City. This simple premise sparked the essence of Vatican Rome Tour: "Yes" to private groups, exclusive customer benefits, exceptional guides, and excellent customer service. "No" to over-crowded, generic tours with sub-standard guides and long waits in line. We're specialized in providing luxury flights to top tourist destinations. We promise comfortable seats and smooth rides, no exception.
WHAT WE DO
Our goal is ensuring that your Rome or Vatican Private Tour starts and ends in style, from the moment you board and until the end of your day with us.

“January 2020—We had an amazing private 2-day Rome tour with Max of ItalyRomeTour. It was the highlight of our 2-week tour of the Mediterranean. We are pretty savvy vacationers, but there is no way we could have ever had covered as many sites or territory on our own. Max was the perfect guide: organized, knowledgeable, informed and charming. Door to door each day was an adventure filled to the brim with the rich history of Rome. He had all our tickets ahead of time, we never waited in line, and he timed each location for a well-planned day. He came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Definitely an expert at his craft and the highest caliber guide. He has a unique gift for gauging your interests, and always has additional information on his i-pad, like a museum curator, to support and further illustrate the history he was sharing. I could have done two more days. Bravissimo.”

“I do not have enough words to say how fantastic Max is. He was responsive to all my emails, he absolutely structured the day exactly to fit our needs and was wonderful when our cruise ship shortened our day unexpectedly. He still made it all work beautifully, He and Marco were there to greet us with our name at the port and whisked us away in two minivans since there were 11 of us. Max was so full of wonderful facts and history of rome on our way from the port. He absolutely went above and beyond all my expectations. He guided us to the colosseum and hedrions arch. Took family pictures of us, explained the history and fun facts. Linda his guide at the Vatican was fabulous. She definately knows her vatican history and would share her knowledge and answer all of our questions beautifully. What a treat that everything was taken care of from all the tickets. I could truly just sit back and enjoy the city and the whole day and not worry. Max, I wish you were in every port!!! I would absolutely recommend Max and Marco and Linda if you are going to Rome! This was just the perfect day. Thank you from all of us”

“On a cruise to the Mediterranean, we decided to do our own transfer to cruise port at Civitavecchia instead of using the cruise offer which cost a lot more. Landing at Rome Airport, we proceeded to the train station and booked our train tickets at the station counter. The nice man at the counter not only sold us the tickets but told us exactly what to do to get to the port. We were to take the train F1 to Rome Trastevere Station, get off and transfer to the Civitavecchia train F5. Total time will take around 2 hours. At Trastevere, the platform to Civitavecchia is clearly indicated but you need to check the information board for the track no. Once you reach Civitavecchia, get out of the station, cross the road in front of you, turn right and walk all the way till you reach an old Fort. Enter the Fort and straight ahead is a Port Mobility bus stand. The bus will bring you to the place where the cruise shuttle will bring you to your ship. All you pay for the whole transfer is your train fare from Rome Airport to Civitavecchia Which is merely a faction of what you would pay if you had utilised the cruise transfer.”

“We went with Max Parini of Italyrometour for a 2 day tour. We also used his company as a pickup from the airport to our hotel and a pickup from hotel to cruise ship terminal. This was one of the best tours we have been on. Max’s knowledge and energy was awesome. He made the tour an exceptional experience. We never waited in a line, never had to wait for transportation, never had to wonder what to do next. Any questions were answered on the spot with precise details. I would recommend Max to any one wanting to visit Rome."
