We are really getting excited! We used a couple of different companies, but "The Roman Guy/The Tour Guy" tours were all very good. Their Vatican Combo tour with the Sistine Chapel and Dome climb is a long day but well worth it. Their Colosseum tour was also very good. We also did the catacombs tour with them, but they hand you off to the official guides at the crypts themselves, so that part is pretty common among all the tour offerings. Funny thing though - our guide was so personable and entertaining during the drive there and extremely informative. We got a couple of good restaurant recommendations from him. On the other thread below about where to stay - we stayed at Hotel IQ Roma, which is right by the opera house and very close to termini, which made it a breeze to get to our destinations. It is modern, with AC, offers a good included breakfast and the staff were awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DH rode behind the driver & I rode in the sidecar. Other tourists were taking photos of us. We were able to go down narrow streets where cars & busses couldn't. We made a few scenic stops but not the Vatican or the Colosseum. There are YouTube videos of it. You get commentary thru the helmets. We felt very safe. DH and I are doing that same Vespa tour this October. Happy to hear it was a blast!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
