Your guide in Rome
An experience shaped around how you want to discover the city
Sorinel asks the right questions before the tour, explains without rushing, and adapts the route so Rome becomes easier to understand.
The visitor experience
Closer to the city, more confident in your choices
A private guide is most valuable when connecting what you see with the questions you brought with you. Sorinel follows that thread from practical orientation to historical and cultural context.
Christian heritage and the Vatican are important areas of his expertise, but tours can just as naturally explore ancient Rome, the historic center, or a route designed for a first visit.
