Why we recommend it
Walks of Italy has its Rome base on Viale Giuseppe Mazzini in Prati, and its programme covers the city's big-ticket sights with an emphasis on access and timing. Popular options include an early-entrance tour of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, a Colosseum tour that enters the arena floor through the Gladiator's Gate, and a private VIP visit to the Colosseum's underground passages.
There is also a full Rome in a Day tour combining the Vatican, Colosseum and historic centre, and a Rome Underground tour taking in catacombs, the Appian Way and the aqueducts. Small-group sizes vary by tour, from six up to around 20 guests, and private versions are available. Book early for the Vatican's first-entry slots, which are the best way to see the Sistine Chapel without crowds.
