Overview

A lifetime would not be enough to visit Rome's gems. However what if you only have one day in the Eternal City? Thanks to our tour, carefully studied and designed after 20 years of experience in the field, you will be able to make the most out of your time in the Eternal City.

Our groups, limited to a maximum of 15 people, are small and intimate in order to give you the best experience and to facilitate the interaction with your expert guide, who will be with you for 7 hours. Comfortably traveling by minivan, you will be able to maximise your touring time, without the hassle of trying to get from one site to another via taxi or public transportation.

It will all start with a fascinating visit to the highlights of the Ancient city. The ruins of the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Then a drive to the city centre for a magnificent stroll among the squares and fountains. Last but certainly not least the Vatican Museums with as grand final the Sistine Chapel and Saint Peter's Basilica.

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
