The Absolute Best Adventure through Ancient Tome Federica Gave Our Family an Unforgettable Experience of Rome! Federica was absolutely incredible and truly one of the highlights of our family’s trip to Italy! We toured the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and Roman Forum with her, and she had an amazing ability to make Ancient Rome come alive. Her knowledge is extraordinary, but even more impressive was how she made the history relatable, interesting, and fun for our kids. What made our experience with Federica so special, though, went far beyond the traditional tour. She took the time to show us the Rome that locals know and love. She walked us through the market, brought us to a wonderful sandwich shop, and showed us how to have an authentic Italian coffee and gelato experience. She even recommended that we visit the Jewish Ghetto for lunch, which became another memorable part of our day. Federica connected with our family in such a genuine and personal way. She quickly understood our personalities and interests and tailored the experience so that everyone—from the adults to the kids—felt engaged. We laughed, learned, ate, explored, and experienced Rome in a way we never could have done on our own. By the end of our time together, Federica didn’t feel like a tour guide; she felt like a friend showing our family the city she loves. Those personal experiences and little local discoveries are some of the memories we will treasure most from our trip. If you are going to Rome, book Federica! She gave us so much more than a tour—she gave our family an authentic experience of Rome that we will never forget. Five stars aren’t enough. We cannot recommend her highly enough!Posted on Tripadvisor
Elaine YThe Best Tour Ever! Federica was amazing! She gave us so much information on the history of the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel and she went above and beyond to give us a thorough tour, despite my husband being on a mobility scooter. She made everything super easy for us; she was very warm and friendly and knowledgeable. We cannot recommend her highly enough! 11 out of 10 for sure; an unforgettable experience!!Posted on Tripadvisor
Katherine LAn unparalleled tour guide in Rome! Federica was, without question, one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. She guided our family through both the Vatican and the Forum and Colosseum, and her knowledge was simply extraordinary. Her explanations of the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museums, and the history behind what we were seeing brought everything to life in a way that no guidebook ever could. We learned so many fascinating details and left with a much deeper appreciation for Rome's history, art, and culture. On an especially hot day at the Forum and Colosseum, Federica took great care of us, pacing the tour thoughtfully and even recommending a wonderful place for lunch before our next activity. We felt genuinely looked after from start to finish. Federica made an immediate impression on us, a family of five, with boys ages 14, 10, and 9. Federica could not have been more warm, charming, and funny. She made history engaging and memorable for them, and she left a lasting impression on our entire family. Even days later, we are still talking about her like an old family friend. We miss her! If you have the opportunity to tour Rome with Federica, take it—you will come away with unforgettable memories and a far deeper understanding of the Eternal City.Posted on Tripadvisor

Dominic MPerfect Federica was absolutely wonderful. Why? She was passionate with history and art. Think of it like this, Federica work is every day, but each day to her she will inform you as if were her first time. My family and I recommend her highly. She will keep you interested as the day goes on. We loved her.Posted on Tripadvisor
Jeff B.Very personable and knowledgeable guide We took two tours with Federica. The tours were one of a kind. Federica is both knowledgeable and caring. We were immersed into the world of Roman history and Roman art history. We also got to skip nearly all of the lines,which was invaluable. Federica made us feel like family. Both experiences were unforgettable.Posted on Tripadvisor
Jayne KDiscovering and Learning about Rome from Federica My friend and I spent and unforgettable day with Federica as she brought history to life for us. From the awe-inspiring beauty of the Vatican and its museums to the infamous role of the Colosseum in entertainment of the Roman Empire, Federica is engaging, knowledgable and has a genuine passion for Rome and its history. If you want a skip-the-lines individualized learning experience in a sea of people, I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone visiting Rome. Thank you Federica!Posted on Tripadvisor

Maria GFantastic Vatican Tour We had a wonderful, memorable tour of the Vatican thanks to Federica’s deep knowledge of Roman art history and mindful presentation. She is utterly charming, warm and fun and it was truly a joy to experience the Vatican with her.
