We spent 6 weeks in Europe and had many great guides, but these guys were by far the best. Their knowledge of the Vatican and Rome went far beyond the physical structures. We came away with knowledge and fasinating stories that you would never find just reading up on the subject before you went. Both of our guides were from... More

On a short stay in Rome with my husband and teenage daughter I wanted to make the most of our time and booked two tours with Roman Candle Tours. As the only customers on the tours, we enjoyed a personalised experience at group tour rates that provided us with all the cultural learning and insights that we could have hoped... More

The guides spoke perfect English having both lived in the US. Their passion for their respective subject matter was very evident and it was clear this was more than a job for both of them. The...

We booked three tours with Roman Candle Tours in March and would thoroughly recommend them to anybody. A special thanks goes to Richard our tour guide who was amazing. His knowledge and stories of ancient Rome were the highlight. We only wished we could have taken him everywhere! If you are visiting Rome then Roman Candle is a fantastic way... More

Private tour was the way to go with our family. Didn't have to wear headphones to hear guide as in some larger tours. It was easier to move from exhibit to exhibit in a small group and spend the time we wanted to on the things we wanted to see. More

This walking tour is very pleasant. You could see the details inside the colosseum and walk thru the Roman Forum ruins. Our guide gave us a lot of historic information. More

This is the 5th time we have used Roman Candle Tours and would never consider using a different guide. We have had the privilege of having Richard and Brian guide us through the Vatican Museum and Ancient Rome. They are so knowledgeable and make the history come to life! For us English speaking visitors, their language skills are perfect and... More

My girlfriend and I recently booked a weekend of tours with Roman Candle. We couldnt have been any happier or more satisfied with our experience. Our tours were perfect. The small group was key, and our guide was absolutely outstanding. Our guide knew exactly what he was talking about every step of the way with us through ancient rome, downtown... More
