The name “AppetiTours” is a play on words that seeks to unite “Appetite" and “Tours”. Why? “appetitus” = “desired” And isn’t a trip just that? You travel with the desire to get to know new places, to find yourself in a new atmosphere. « less

We shared three tours with Katia and enjoyed them all very much. All the wonderful things other reviewers have said are true. Her enthusiasm and professionalism are everything you could ask for in a guide. Our title sums it up. Touring with Katia is like being guided by that favorite cousin you never get the chance to spend enough time... More

We reached out to Katia Cutrone of AppetiTours for a recent trip to Rome. We emailed her based on a friend's recommendation. We are so pleased that we did. Katia responded quickly with some fabulous suggestions. We told her who was traveling and our interests and she created three guided excursions for us. Katia arranged the tickets for the best...

Grazie! You are perfect "guest" to show my city, because you did enjoy every very little details and were curious about the stories behind them. Moreover, I have to confess: when you asked me to reserve a special visit at the undergrounds and the third level of the Colosseum, I was very very excited. And when we were all together... More

I read a few reviews on Appetitours on Tripadvisor, and decided to book a tour with them. I have nothing but fantastic reviews for Katia, who is by far the best tour guide we have ever had!!! We traveled with our 11 and 15 year old kids. Katia was extremely nice, knowledgeable beyond words, fun and interactive. She gladly suggested... More

I don't usually like guided tours. However, Katia was wonderful. She is knowledgeable, but knows just how much to say. She speaks excellent English and is a very pleasant person to spend time with. It is like being taken round by a good friend. If you are lucky enough to be able to book her, you will have a wonderful... More

On our recent trip to Rome, I really wanted to visit the Borghese Galleries but wasn't sure my kids (14, 12, 10) would be so thrilled. I found Appeti Tours suggestion of a Mythology Tour in the Borghese Galleries and we took a tour with Katia. She brought the old stories to life as she showed us through this fabulous... More

Dear Jenny, thanks for your review :-) It was such a pleasure for me to share with you and your family the mythological stories in (what I consider) the most wonderful little gallery of Rome! I was delighted by your curiosity and enthusiasm for art and for the hidden stories behind the many statues and paintings we admire together. I... More

We hired Katia to accompany us for 2 mornings (4 to 5 hours)... to the Vatican/Sistene Chapel and to Ancient Rome. Katia was really, really pleasant and helpful, her knowledge was astounding, we loved her sense of humour, she gave us great suggestions for other things to do (and not do), and recommended some fantastic non-touristy Roman restaurants. Also gave... More

This is also what I hope when I go on holidays, I do hope to meet some local who can give me genuine advices, just based on the experience. And this... More

Katia was at our hotel punctually, with a selection of tour choices that fit our interests. We were able to cover the two most interesting tours, which took us to places we never would have found without her, and gave us an insight to the history of the inner city that only residents normally have knowledge of. Katia is an... More

Katia provided us with a fascinating and very enjoyable tour of some of Rome's lesser known monuments and areas of historical interest. She was very well prepared and extremely knowledgable about all aspects of the sites we visited. Her English is perfect and she is a delight to be with. What a wonderful experience being guided by her! It is... More

My 12 year old and 15 year old came back from our first tour with Katia and were so much more engaged in the attractions that we visited than they had been at any they had seen in our trip to Florence 3 days earlier.
