I was so skeptical about this tour. I did the classic half day wine tour. For 55€, I was nervous…read moreabout the price and if the quality of the tour would be worth it, but can I tell you! This tour was worth the money spent. First, you catch the train and meet with the tour guide. My tour guide was Max. He was super knowledgeable and had funny jokes throughout the tour. He's a local and has traveled to many countries outside of his town of Frascati. We take a little tour of the town and he gives some history and we went into some shops and the main church there. Next, we stopped into a bakery and sampled some cheap, house wine (as he calls it) that is saved for families to drink with some sweet cookies. We were instructed to dip the cookies in the wine. Delish! Prior to that we got a little same of roasted pork with the wine as a light snack. Then a taxi comes to pick us up and take the group to the vineyard. We tour the vineyard and take awesome pictures. There's an awesome view of Rome from the vineyard. We then went into the cellar where the wine is stored and got a very detailed tour of the underground and the winemaking process. Next, we enter the tasting room. We received 3 (1 white, q red , 1 dessert wine) quality Frascati wines paired with a white pizza, red sauce pizza and bread. Olive oil that they also make at the vineyard is on the table to sample. Throughout each wine tasting, Max teaches about the wine. Lastly! The taxi returned to take the group to have lunch at a local restaurant back in the town. We received an appetizer of arugula, sautéed zucchini, I think a sautéed mushroom and some meat. Then we got a small portion of a red sauce pasta and then a carbonara with bacon bits (they had pairings and lunch options for anyone who was vegetarian as well). I was just enough food to leave me satisfied. I really enjoyed this tour! The tour is from about 10:30am to 2pm (you can catch the 2:36pm train back to termini or stay and enjoy the town until about 9pm when the last train comes). The small group setting was great for a nice intimate tour, easy picture taking and getting all your questions in. There were 9 people in my group but the tour has a 15 person max. I booked this tour super last minute on my way from Spain and they were accommodating. My only con was email response was a bit slow. I just showed up in hopes I was confirmed. I'm so glad I went! I believe you can only pay in cash, so be mindful of that. Bottles of the red and white wines are 10€ and the dessert wine is 15€ (if I remember correctly). Wine purchases are in cash as well. But y'all, this tour made my trip! It was everything! Highly, highly recommend!

The stops were great, the walking easy, the food good, and Edma was a fountain of local geography and food culture information. We all felt like we got great value and were happy with the experience!

Our host was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and it was a treat to learn about the history of these great winemakers. We loved everything so much we immediately bought bottles to take home for dinner and shipped a crate home, too. One of our favorite afternoons of our entire trip to Tuscany.

We did the Italian wines and cheese pairings class (a group class of about 10 people) led by Hande, the sommelier. She was incredible!! Her knowledge was so impressive, but she imparted it in such a fun and conversational way that it was extremely interesting and never pretentious. We learned so much and enjoyed every minute of it. It really made us more interested and confident in our wine selections for the remainder of our trip. You could have as many pours as you liked and the wines were very good quality and a broad spectrum. She gives you a map of the Italian wine and grape regions and a listing of all that you taste. Also, ADD THE CHEESE TASTING! It was the best cheese we had on the entire trip. I have never had fresher mozzarella and ricotta. I think we had about 7 different cheeses in all as well as delicious bread and meats. Again, we could eat as much as we wanted, and trust me, we wanted a lot! She wasn't looking at the clock at all, we sat and ate and drank like we were among old friends. It was such a special night. A must do while in Rome!

He told me about the 9 generations that built the place and the devastation brought on by WWII. He explained how he gets up before dawn every morning to tend to the animals and grapes. It was a surreal day that we spent laughing, eating our own Roman creations and drinking the best wine in the world.

I used Rome In Limo for a transfer over ten years ago and decided to reach out to them again for help getting tickets and transport. What a great choice! From the moment I filled out my online request, I was in Jany's good hands. She quickly connected with me and was eager and ready to make my trip come to life. Rome In Limo doesn't just give you a cookie cutter type of tour. It's all about you and your preferences. The three day tour I picked was tweaked to accommodate a transfer from the airport and sights were moved around to make the most of our time. They gave us a reputable ticket agent to secure Vatican and Basilica tickets and coordinated the tour timing with our guide. Stefano, our driver for two days couldn't have been better. He was professional, friendly, prompt, flexible and knowledgeable about all the sights and Rome's history. We had a couple of special places we wanted to go and it was no problem at all. We wanted to go into the Pantheon and next to the Trevi Fountain and needed tickets. Stefano quickly secured our tickets taking our stress away! After two days with him we came away feeling like we had been traveling with a good friend not just a tour guide. Guilia our guide for the Vatican and St. Peter's was just as prompt, knowledgeable, warm and friendly, weaving us through the massive crowds and showing us the most important exhibits. Jany, Stefano and Guilia made our Rome experience exceptional. Whatever we needed was handled quickly and seamlessly. What I really appreciated was the level of communication. Jany was always available to answer and reassure me about any concern or question I had. I never felt alone from the moment I made my first request until our final goodbye. It was an awesome feeling to know the Rome In Limo team truly cared about us and wanted to make our trip special, we weren't just another customer.

They are punctual and communicate about your upcoming rides so you don't have to wonder if they are going to remember to pick you up. Drivers are friendly and helpful. I wish I could give more stars.
