After reading so many positive reviews and especially being impressed with their exceedingly quick replies to my email inquiries, we decided to book three excursions with driverinrome for our Mediterranean Celebrity Equinox cruise last May. We are so glad we did as our drivers were amazing and our excursions in Florence, Rome and the Amalfi Coast unforgettable. Giammarco was our guide for the Splendour of Florence tour. What a sweetheart! He was kind, informative, funny, charming and flexible to the requests of our group of 8 Canadians. He took us to this amazing authentic gelateria as well as (even though we decided this at the last moment) Castello Sonnino in the Tuscan countryside where they make their own olive oil and wine. A magical end to a magical day. In Rome, we had Massimiliano (Max) as our driver for our Rome What You Wish excursion. It was only our family of four and we had a Rome to do and see wishlist. Massimiliano was fantastic! We managed to do just about all on our list as well as our requested stop for espresso at Sant'Eustachio. A wonderful time with shared stories that much impressed our 2 young adult sons. Massimiliano constantly engaged us with stories, questions and anecdotes about all that we saw. When we were at the Aventine Hill, Massimiliano told us we had to absolutely look through the keyhole which I said I couldn't do as I am in a wheelchair. No problem-I had to do it. Well he along with my husband managed to lift me up so that I could peek through that keyhole. I will never forget that experience and making possible what I thought was not. I was very touched. Our whirlwind of a day again ended on a high note with Massimiliano's "surprise" for my sons. Giammaria was also equally helpful by helping lift me in my wheelchair so that I could transfer onto my seat. No easy task! Mario was our driver for the stunning Amalfi Coast. We were again a group of 8 who opted out, for one reason or another, of Pompeii. We more than made up for that seeing so much of that beautiful area of Italy. Mario filled us with stories of the rich and famous who graced this coast. We visited Positano. Amalfi and Ravello and saw so much in between. Mario thrilled all of us by taking us to the most amazing hilltop restaurant overlooking Amalfi Bay. Aside from this place's beauty, we will never forget being greeted with cold proseccos and ending our fabulous meals with chilled Limoncellos! The stuff of memories! Mario was a real character and seemed to know just about everybody everywhere we went! We always felt completely well taken care of by all our drivers. They were always there waiting for us with a smile, whether at the ports or wherever they would drop us off for some time on our own. They were all very capable drivers and we never once felt stressed out ( as we absolutely would have been had we rented a car and driven ourselves!). We saw and learned so very much. As a wheelchair user I was always made to feel that this was never an issue for the drivers and that everything was possible. Even wheelchair accessible washrooms were scouted out for me. The larger of the Meredes vans were a little challenging to enter. The ones sized a little smaller-still accommodating 8 passengers-were easier for my husband to transfer me into. I would highly recommend driverinrome and definitely would use them again whenever we will return to this beautiful country and its wonderful people! read more

Our cruise stopped in Civitavecchia, and rather that make the 90 minute one-way trip to see Rome again, we decided on finding a private tour around the port area. We found an appealing tour offered by DriverInRome, "Countryside, Castles, And Cute Villages," a 9-hour trip visiting 3 medieval towns and a castle around the nearby Lake Bracciano. I offered other cruise passengers the opportunity to join the tour, and ended up needing two 8-passenger vans. Let me start by saying our drivers, Riccardo and Costinel, were terrific---both very outgoing and spoke fluent English. I was in Riccardo's van, so I can speak very highly about him in particular. Riccardo grew up in the area and knew it like his backyard, enough to know to take some back roads when we hit construction traffic. The three towns, Bracciano, Anguillara and Trevignano, all had historic town centers but were still unique in their own ways. We loved having free time in each stop, like enjoying cappuccino and a pastry in a sidewalk cafe, strolling through a street market, strolling up to a hilltop church for some great photos, and watching a clutch of toddlers in a day care class all holding onto a rope while walking the cobblestone streets like ducklings. The scenery was fantastic, and the towns usually had high points to get some great photos. The castle was in remarkable condition, and gave you all the flavor of medieval aristocracy. During our walk through, we heard a bit of a scream and looked up along one of the castle walls, realizing that a young man had just proposed to his lady fair (she said yes). She was still trembling as we congratulated them as we passed them on their way down. The drivers also took us to a great little restaurant which they had to research for us, because on a Monday in this region many businesses are closed, including many restaurants. Know that drivers are not tour guides---in Italy, guides need to be educated and certified, so Riccardo could not guide us through the towns, but we knoew that in advance. But what he can do is give us his knowledge of the areas while we're driving, such as sites to see in the towns and history of the area, and it was thoroughly enjoyable. Later in the cruise, we were on tours that had groups of 35 people, and having a private driver and exploring on our own is our much preferred way to explore. Riccardo and Costinel were terrific hosts, and all 16 of us had a wonderful day seeing the authentic Italy and making new friends. I wholeheartedly recommend DriverInRome. read more

We used Driverinrome twice on our trip and each time was great! My wife and I had a guide for the Vatican museum and St. Peter's Basilica and she was very well informed and gave us more insight into the art and architecture than we could have ever gotten on our own. Plus, she was our personal guide so we had her all to ourselves. We got to ask any questions we wanted and she had all the answers. We were able to make good time because we did not have to wait on a large group before heading into the next exhibit. Our second tour was a driver tour of several churches. We saw a catacombs and four or five churches that we would never have been able to do ourselves in three or four days, much less half a day. The driver was very knowledgeable as well and was very friendly and helpful. He picked us up at our hotel and after the tour was over even recommended a couple of good restaurants, one of which we ate at and had a fabulous meal. I highly recommend Driverinrome for an unforgettable and personal experience that you cannot get with any other group. The service was great and the prices were very reasonable. read more

It has been over a decade when I became a wheelchair user and throughout all these years I've never thought of going on a vacation out of country due to my disability and being afraid of bothering my family, until this recent 10 days cruise we have taken for my wedding's anniversary. And I have to say that using Driver In Rome for our tour in Rome, has been one of the best decisions in our life!!!! Not only it saved us a lot of time and stress into planning and looking for tickets to the monuments we wanted to visit, but we also felt secure throughout the whole duration of the tour, there was never a moment my disability stopped me from enjoying the tour, thanks to their van in which my wheelchair could totally fit in! Thank you Driverinrome Team for creating a tour we will never forget. We highly recommend this company and their wheelchair accessible van for wheelchair users like me! read more

This tour was worth every penny! This was our first time in Italy and we were in Rome for only about 24 hours before our cruise departed. Max gave us an 8 hour private tour including all the highlights of the city. His knowledge was incredible and he was extremely interesting to listen to! He adjusted the tour to what we were interested in and gave some helpful suggestions to use the time wisely. We went to an out of the way restaurant for lunch that was fabulous. He made sure that when he dropped us off at any locations we knew exactly where to meet him and gave us suggestions of places to see. The next day we booked a private tour of the Vatican. It's was amazing as well. I can't remember our guide's name, but her knowledge was so incredible. We were unsure about spending the money on both tours but they were worth it. I would definitely recommend Driver in Rome to anyone. read more

We had four terrific tours from the Drivers In Rome. We had a group of 12 people and everyone had a great time. First was the Airport Transfer, and 1 hour sightseeing, one of our flight was delay but they waited for the whole group to start. The sightseeing tour was great. Second tour was the Pompeii and Amalfi coast. They arrange a wonderful tour guide in Pompeii and a beautiful Amalfi coast. Third tour was the Florence and we had a fantastic time. The last tour was at Assisi, which was amazing and they arrange lunch at restaurant that had great truffle pasta. Emily and Vanessa was very helpful with arranging the tour to the wishes of the group. Our driver Claudio and Marco was very patient, informative and accommodating. When we return to Italy, we will most definitely use the Drivers in Rome. The whole company was professional and wonderful. read more

This is a fabulous company! We had never booked a private tour before and were nervous about investing so much into one day. For Rome, it's worth every nickel! In addition to being well-informed about Rome and its history, he could get really close to the places we wanted to go, and tour busses have to park at least a 15-20 minute walk from the sights. It really eats up your time walking to and from the busses. Driver in Rome is great in communicating, problem-solving, advising, just all-around great. I would book another tour with them in a heartbeat. If your day in Rome includes a tour of The Colosseum or St. Peter's, I advise you to book a private guide (through Driver in Rome) for those sites. It will add enormously to your time and the tour guides coordinate beautifully with your Driver/Guide. It was a fabulous, worry-free day! read more

When we started planning our trip to Italy we knew that travelling with a wheelchair would have its accessibility challenges, but thanks to DRIVERINROME and Daniele, we were able to enjoy Rome's attractions feeling no limitations at all. Daniele picked up our family at the port with his wheelchair adapted van and his eagerness to accommodate our needs was only paralleled by his incredible knowledge of the city's history and his wonderful sense of humor. We had been warned that Rome's cobblestoned streets could be bothersome and even dangerous to a disabled person, but Daniele dropped us off so close to the sights that we didn't need to worry too much. We saw everything we had planned and even more.If you are looking for a wheelchair accessible van in Rome call Daniele. read more

As a travel agent trying to coordinate transportation for a group of 19 people a month in advance, I found it incredibly frustrating that this company refuses to communicate via text or WhatsApp--two of the most efficient tools for planning and coordination. Instead, everything must go through email, and you're forced to wait up to 24 hours for a response, which severely slows down the planning process. While they might work well for last-minute or individual bookings, they are extremely difficult to work with when trying to proactively organize group travel. Timely communication is essential in this business, and unfortunately, the lack of flexibility and responsiveness made the experience far more complicated than it needed to be. Disappointing. read more

Fabio truly went above and beyond as our driver for the day! We had lost our luggage and unexpectedly needed to go to the Rome airport an hour away from the Civitavecchia port to retrieve them. Fabio accompanied us into the airport and helped us navigate and translate. Despite this long delay, he adjusted our itinerary so we could see each of the amazing sights of the tour even if it was a little shortened. Throughout the day, Fabio provided us with so much insight into Italian life, history, and culture. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique experience of the Roman countryside! read more

I took a small group tour of Rome last week. We had a perfect day and our drive, Fredrick, was fantastic. I accidentally left my phone in the van when I was dropped off at the cruise ship. The manager Daniel assured me that he would reunite me with my phone. Somehow he managed to have my phone delivered to the ship in Naples in less than 24 hours. I still can't believe they went so far out of their way to help me and wanted nothing in return. I cannot recommend this tour company enough. They provide and amazing tour and the best customer service I have encountered. read more

Matt was amazing. We are English speaking only and wife has severe mobility issues. Matt provided my son and I with the chance to go to the coliseum, churches and all sites in Rome, a great driving tour for us where we saw every major site in rome. Negotiating the complicated roads full of tourists, we even saw Pantheon, Spanish Steps with constant history, and anecdotes that we would have never heard on a walking tour. Matt provided a fantastic vehicle tour that made our 1 day only in Rome beyond any anticipated expectations ASK for Matt and this group. read more

A dream come true!!! We just wanted to thank everybody at DriverinRome for making our honeymoon a dream come true! We booked a day trip to Siena and San Gimignano from Rome, and honestly we could not have asked for a more romantic set than Tuscany's rolling hills and these charming little towns. Marco, our driver, went beyond his call of duty and made us feel extra special by organizing some wine tasting in San Gimignano. This is the first time using DriverinRome but it will definitely be our go to company for our future vacations. read more

I'd give 15 stars if I could!! We were only in Rome for one day due to being on a cruise, but I couldn't think of a better way to squeeze in all the sights than a Driver In Rome tour! Our driver, Claudio, was absolutely amazing!! He showed us so many beautiful and historic sights!! He stopped so we could take photos at each place, set reservations for us for lunch at a delicious and quaint Cafe. Huge thanks Claudio!!! We appreciate all the information you shared about the sights and Rome as we explored it! Worth every penny! read more

I would definitely use the Driverinrome service again for my next Europe trip. . We use the service from Rome to Florence and back with a stop in Pisa. We also took a day trip to positano, sorrento and Amafi coast. Marco was very kind and informative on all the highlights of places we visited. Marco drove us to , basically, the front door of all major attractions which enabled us to see so much more than if we were using train systems and had to walk to each .church or museum . It was definitely money well spent . read more

I meant to do this review last year and forgot to, apologies. Myself and 7 other ladies used the service provided by driverinrome for a 5 hour tour of Rome. Can I just say it was fantastic. Our driver was Damien, he was polite, charming and very informative. He drove us to all the great sites and to a few more that we wouldn't have ever visited without his knowledge. We loved the keyhole stop. I won't say what so not to ruin it for anyone. We all thoroughly recommend using "driverinrome". Thanks Damien. read more

Another 'Wow' experience with DriverinRome This is the second time we've used DriverinRome and even though we knew we were dealing with professionals, these guys exceeded by far our expectations. Marco came to pick us up at the airport and showed us the beautiful Tuscan countryside before dropping us to Florence. Enchanting landscapes, amazing food and an experienced and entertaining driver all contributed to turning what could have been a simple transfer in a day to remember. read more

Our driver, Lucci, was so nice and accommodating! He took us everywhere we wanted to go, took photos for us, and even made us a reservation for lunch in Positano that was amazing! It was our favorite meal of our entire trip and it was all thanks to him finding the restaurant and booking it for us! He was great and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun, personable driver! read more

We had an amazing experience with our driver, Matt, in Rome. He was incredibly knowledgeable, detailed, and patient--especially with our group that included four elders. Matt made sure everyone was comfortable and never rushed us. His professionalism, kindness, and positive attitude truly stood out. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a great driver and tour guide in Rome. read more
