Great experience, even for kids! - Great experience learning about the dark history of the Roman City Centre and communicating with the ghosts that haunt the street. I brought my nine year old and the Sonia (the guide) was sensitive to this regarding the details of some of the crimes (thank you!). We’ve been on multiple tours over the last week and a half (Colloseum, Pompeii, Positano, Vatican, etc.), and this was the only tour that engaged her and didn’t result in a “when are we going/is it over”. Well worth the cost for a mystical and spooky night along the streets of this former Empire!

Roma Ghost Tour - Lara was welcoming from the very beginning of the tour and made us feel very comfortable. Not only did she share the information in a very entertaining way, her humor and character made the experience even better. She was extreme yet knowledgeable on each segment of the tour and was able to provide additional knowledge when asked. Additionally, she did a great job of prompting group participation and just great energy all around. I would recommend Lara as a tour guide to anyone interested in a really enjoyable and informative experience in Rome!

Excellent fun and super interesting experience - This was a huge hit with all of us! Lara was brilliant and you really saw and heard about a side of Rome that you don’t on other experiences! It was scary enough to be super engaging but not too much that it freaked out the kids. Also not too long or arduous a walk. Highly recommend!

Just Ok - Our guide, Emma, was very nice and knowledgeable. The tour was just over an hour long instead of 2 hours. As far as it being a “haunted” or “ghost” tour—it was fairly boring

They were extremely rude... - They were extremely rude with the customer service not allowing us to switch to another day when it was pouring rain. Additionally, our tour guide Emma was especially rude when we asked by saying “I cannot control the weather, babe” and when we decided we would rather lose €60+ than walk through the rain for an 1.5hrs she looked back at me and gave me a look. Lastly, we tried messaging Viator to get money back and they lied to Viator saying they tried to accommodate us.
