shortstop95 Posted June 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2016 This will be our first European cruise - so looking to maximize what little time we have in ports. Being unfamiliar with Europe- Carnival sponsored excursions do hold the benefit of knowing we won't get left behind- we know with private tours you see more and pay less. Other threads have mentioned Rome in Limo. Can anyone provide feedback on the Rome Highlights tour with them? The good? The bad? The could be improved? The wish I had done this instead? We would appreciate and welcome any info. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kineticoh20 Posted June 15, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Compared to any ships tours romeinlimo would be a huge improvement. They are the best.... run don't walk to book with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngMo44 Posted June 16, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 16, 2016 All good. No bad to report. We used them in 2013 for Rome Highlights. We saw city wall, Circus Maximus, Palatine Hill, Roman Forum. They pulled us right up to Colosseum and helped us get into correct line to zip right inside. Gave us a local cell to contact as he they can't stay parked there. We went to Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and Vatican/Sistine Chapel with guide. They offered a lunch suggestion based on our wishes and had us at a restaurant and seated with a drink in hand in just minutes. There is a level of VIP treatment they provide that Carnival can't touch. They make sure you are back with plenty of time to spare. We used them for Naples, Rome and Florence in 2013 and again 2 wks ago for all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for a 1st time visit you can't beat RIL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbrote Posted June 16, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Fantastic tour that I know you will enjoy and will return to the ship exhausted but you'll have a big smile on your face. We have used RIL now 6 times and each trip was above expectation. Enjoy Rome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortstop95 Posted June 16, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Thanks for all the responses. Would you recommend as well for the other Italian ports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbrote Posted June 16, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Yes, RIL is a great company, we have them booked again this year for Naples, Sicily, Rome and Florence. Excellent service from Jany and his wonderful company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOLALADY Posted June 16, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Thanks for all the responses. Would you recommend as well for the other Italian ports? Check your roll call. Many people book shared tours with RIL and post them in their roll calls for others to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ers26 Posted June 16, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Rome in Limo is a fantastic tour company and we would book with them again in a heart beat. We used them in Rome and Pisa / Lucca last year and both tours were the best. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmecruise1962 Posted June 17, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I have not used them yet, but I can say that I had NO trouble filling two tours (Pompeii and Sorrento and Rome Highlights) by booking the shared tour and posting the link on my role call...and that other social media group for my cruise. Good luck and have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halftocruz Posted June 17, 2016 #12 Share Posted June 17, 2016 RIL is the best!!! I have used them for over 7 tours on both of my European cruises. Jany is amazing to work with. We are using them again this August is Rome, Florence, Naplex and Messina! They are the best!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
