Review of: Criminal tour of Rome
Our tour guide was genuinely passionate about the history of Rome which made this tour so interesting. We saw parts of Rome we probably would not have known to look for as tourists, or parts we could have forgotten to see. I completely enjoyed everything we learned and were shown! My personal highlight was seeing where Julius Ceaser was stabbed, somewhere we may have missed without this tour! We were also the only two people on the tour which made it so much more personal. Our guide even took us to get some food in a little traditional bakery we would otherwise have missed. Overall, it was enjoyable, intellectual, fun and I would do it again if I went back to Rome! 10/10.…

Review of: Criminal tour of Rome
My husband Bob and I have been vacationing in Rome for about a week. I’ve been to Rome many times but he has only been once about 30 years ago. We went to all of the obvious sites then I stumbled onto the Criminal Tour of Rome. Bob loves history (he is also enamored by anything having to do with the Kennedys.) I thought the tour sounded like a good mix of history, politics, mystery and power that we both would enjoy. I contacted the guide, Michele, and arranged to meet him in a small piazza close to the Pantheon. We were pleasantly surprised that Michele spoke not only perfect Italian, but an Americanized-English like you’d find on any top American university campus. Michele swept us away with his enthusiasm and vast knowledge of history and politics and served up a small sampling of Roman crimes ranging over 2,200 years whose impact have shaped our lives today. All this done by taking you to the actual sites where the crimes took place. Michele engaged us with questions and allowed for interesting discussion. He ended the tour by taking us to a small bar where they claim the best espresso in Rome. Pretty damn good!…

We had an incredible time on the Criminal Tour with Michele. The tour was educational and insightful. Michele is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Rome. We took several guided tours during our two-week vacation in Italy and this tour was definitely one of the best. I wish we had found Michele sooner - I think we would have enjoyed some of his other tours as well.…

Passionate and genuine human who wants you to know everything about Rome’s history that isn’t typically told. Full of knowledge, this fast-talking Italian made his subject interesting! Finished with a coffee at what is rated as the best in Rome by Trip Advisor, Michele is unexpectedly generous.…
