Putting together a Jewish Tour of Rome
I wanted a Jewish tour of Rome but would only have a Saturday on which to do it. The typical Jewish tours don't run on the Jewish Sabbath, and many of the places are closed. Mustafah was able to take a list of sights I wanted to see and put together an itinerary that met my desires.

Rome walking tour
Ximena was an incredible guide. Great energy and a love for the city. I felt like we really saw the heart and passion of the city of Rome. The route she planned was excellent and she was very protective of us in the sketchy parts of the city. I would highly recommend this tour and ximena as the guide. Now, for some more skinny. First, it is a 4 hour walking tour. You are going to get your 15,000 steps in the heart of Rome. In the 100 degree heat wave ximena was nice to recommend a nice stop for a cool beverage and a rest break that was very welcome. And, Rome is huge. We focused on the key spots in the heart of the city. I am sure the company will work around your sight seeing desires but, Ximena explained to us that 4 hours have to be focused. Because of distance, we elected to see Vatican City on our own and that worked out very well. This is a great way to see the heart of Rome with a terrific guide.

Maria Elena was great....
Maria Elena was great. She was friendly, funny and knowledgeable. It was a hot day so she brought us to the best coffee shop and Gelato bar . She brought us to what we wanted to see and at our own pace. We would recommend this tour and Maria Elana.

The Best walking tour from an expert!
This was excellent. Highly recommended. Xenia made a personal plan and executed the tour with style. She is so kind and knowledge and fun! Need more tour guides like her!

Walk with purpose
Maria was excellent! She contacted us a week in advance to arrange our itinerary. Knowledgeable and personable. Lead us to some great places that I had never heard of in 5 prior visits to Rome.

Why this scores 82
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour) cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour) take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.
Is Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 109 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour) suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour)?
+
Around 38 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rome : Custom Walking Tour With A Guide (Private Tour) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rome?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
