Rome Tour Guide

Explore Rome with Alex

Private Tours. Tailored to Your Interests.

Hi! I’m Alex — a British-born historian with an MPhil in Roman History from the University of Oxford. I’ve been in Italy for nearly 10 years, working as a writer and a tour guide in Rome. I’ve studied my Suetonius, come to terms with Cicero, and got to grips with Gibbon – all so you don’t have to. 😉

I’m an ETOA-certified guide, part of the guiding team for the Regional Park of the Appia Antica (my favourite hidden gem in Rome!), a tour leader for ACIS (the American Council for International Studies), and an all-around passionate educator.

I love all the juicy details from Roman history: the sex lives of the Caesars; damnatio memoriae (the ‘cancelling’ of disgraced figures). Oh, and we could talk for hours about my favourite emperor of all — Caligula. So scroll down, browse my private tours, and get in touch so we can organise your adventure around Rome!
