Rome in a glass with Ettore was one of the best moments of our trip! His combination of knowledge, passion and personality would make anyone appreciatte, and better understand wine. Ettore conveyed the true Roman attitude as he so graciously shared his time with us. I highly recommend a wine tour with Ettore or Sarah (his lovely wife) as soon... More

Our tour was led by Ettore and I cannot speak highly enough about his wealth of knowledge. I would highly recommend a guided tour of this area because of the incredible amount of history that is actually behind what you see. Ettore’s ability to point out the meaning behind almost each piece of history; how it originated, and how it... More

Rome in a glass with Ettore was absolutely wonderful. He was extremely knowledgeable about the wines and all of Rome in general. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone in the Rome area. Also, Ettore was hilarious and kept our whole group entertained for hours. Keep up the good work! More

The Gubbins family from Australia loved sampling Italian wines with Sarah who was very informative with all. Sarah took us to wine bars which we revisited as they were great value and the true Rome experience. We would definitely recommend to anyone with an interest in wine or who just loves a drink!! Sarah is a great girl who knows... More

If you are looking for a wonderful tour guide, while in Italy, you should contact Sarah at Antiqua Tours! As we were planning our recent trip, we decided to look into tours of Rome and the Vatican City. We were looking for an educational and cultural experience to include all the history, art, and architecture these cities have to offer.... More

This tour was fantastic! Sarah was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable about everything from Italian culture to food to pair with each type of wine to the history behind the wine. It was just a positively brilliant experience. The wines we tasted were so aromatic and diverse that it felt as though we had gotten an expert crash-course in Italian... More

We really enjoyed our evening with Sarah speaking about wine and everything else Italian LOL! Her knowledge is vast and her passion for wine is evident. She was very accommodating as we were booking last minute and dealing with a transit strike. The wines she chose for us to taste were a great glimpse into the Italian wine world. The... More

We only had 2 days to tour Rome, and one of the days was Easter Sunday and all museums and other attractions were closed, so essentially we had to pack 2 tours in one day if we wanted to see both the Vatican and Ancient Rome. Antiqua tours was able to acamodate us very well, with a small group Vatican... More

Our family took three tours with Antiqua Tours, each being three and a half hours long. The tours were so informative and educating, that no class will even be able to cover the knowledge and culture that we accumulated while touring with Antiqua. While listening and observing through the tours, Sarah and Ettore truly recreated the glory of Rome, including... More
