Kid-Friendly Food Tours in Rome

Hi Nancy,
We just returned from our week trip to Italy and the 4 days we spent in Rome with your knowledgeable, energetic and fun guide Roberta were fantastic.
I truly believe we saw more in 4 days than most people see in 2 weeks. Roberta made sure we never stood in line for anything – we literally walked into both the Vatican and the Vatican museum. Besides seeing many of the major sites in Rome proper, we also spent a day in Tivoli. Our group of 9 ranged in age from 12 to 69and had a variety of interests and physical abilities.
Roberta made sure that there something each day to appeal to every member of our family. For example, my 69-year-old dad wanted to visit some local open air markets and try restaurants with some true atmosphere; my teenage sons were interested in the more bizarre sites such as the catacombs and the Crypt of the Capuchin. This is just a sampling of what we accomplished in a very few days. We were able to go at a pace that kept the younger members involved, but did not wear out my parents.
For our family, this was a truly memorable experience and the best way to see Rome in a short time.

We thoroughly enjoyed both of our tours. On Monday, we toured with Laura. She was engaging and informative. We all learned so much. We had a fun trivia game at lunch after the tour, and we were very impressed with how much information our 7 and 9 year old girls retained. Laura made it interesting and presented the information in a way that they could understand.
On Tuesday, we toured the Vatican and also had a great experience. Our guide was patient and full of interesting information. He also presented the tour in a way that the children could understand. He was very knowledgeable, and we really enjoyed our time with him. We would definitely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours for other families with children. We were very pleasantly surprised by the guides and how they interacted with our children on an age appropriate level. We saw the tours of people wearing headphones and were immediately relieved that we had fun, interactive, engaging private guides for our children and for ourselves. We found Nancy Aiello Tours first through a blog online about a father traveling with his son. I looked up “Seeing Rome with children”. We then researched your company and saw a lot of positive feedback. Thank you again!

I am so very happy to answer these questions, as we could not have been more pleased with your services!
Your agency and the excellent customer service will be first in my line of recommendations from our recent travels. Everything you arranged was professional and with stellar guides.
While Filipo might be better suited for adult only tours, he tried very hard with the girls. But clearly his passion and proud Roman education is contagious…but maybe a little esoteric for smaller children. However, his enthusiasm for his city made us all appreciate the beauty and history of Rome, that much more.
However, Nadia in Venice was perfect with our 9 year old twin daughters. She even sent us parents out of the room to better plan a surprise for us with the girls assistance. From hidden gems to the way to maneuver the streets and alleys of Venice, she was a wealth of information. We loved her affectionate ways and her desire to show us her beloved city.
As this was the first time in our lives, we ever used a travel specialist, we were hesitant at first. But since we had the girls with us, we thought it better to use a professional service. We were so right and so blessed to have found this in Nancy Aiello Tours. I believe I first read about you from something that originated in Travel and Leisure, but honestly, it has been too many months now since I began my exhaustive research.
The value for my money was perfect, because our tours were priceless. Without a doubt, we would have missed the perfect moments and not discovered the hidden gems, if it wasn’t for Filipo and Nadia. I thank you for finding such delightful personalities to spend our afternoons with us. And to be fair, none of this would have happened without Rachel in your front office. Her communication was speedy, spot on and completely reliable. I hope you know what a treasure you have in her since she is your first line of communication.
I wish your company continued success and look forward to our return visit, in no small part because of your expertise.
Warm regards,
Namaste
