Rome Limousines can not be held responsible and declines any responsibility of service or charges made by restaurants, cafes, souvenir stores or shops of any kind that you have chosen or have been suggested by third parties while being transferred or while on one of our tour excursions.

It is your responsibility to view the list/ menu of products, food, drinks or other to be ordered. If the list with prices or menu are not available you should then ask for the prices directly to the person who is serving you and pay for what you’ve requested and received.

If there is a complaint to be made of any kind it is to be done immediately to the waiter or owner of the souvenir store, restaurant, cafe or any other sort of shop involved. Rome Limousines cannot be held responsible for over tipping a driver or for mistaken payments to shops or restaurants.  It is your responsibility to check the invoices before using your money for shopping, restaurants or whatever.

If any items are left behind and found after the drop off extra costs may incur for it’s recovery if our service is necessary.

We inform our clients that in order to ensure top quality service, our drivers are trained to give informative explanations of the local areas you visit . Yet strict Italian tourist board regulations prohibit chauffeurs from commenting excessively at official tourist sites outside their vehicles.

This is agreement with labour union agreements struck with licensed walking tour guides. They can, of course, speak to you from inside the vehicle anywhere organized tourism is in place.

 Although we are proud that our drivers have been given the title “guide drivers” for their wealth of information, they are not allowed to accompany you during the duration in the historical sites, with the exception of an emergency.

It would be our pleasure to provide private tour guides for the individual or all historical sites at your request.  Tour escorts also never accompany you into the historical sites, except in case of emergencies.

Licensed Guide are those who are specialized and licensed to guide in one specific city or limited area. Local culture, history and traditions are so different from area to area even from city to city that no single guide can possibly become highly knowledgeable about a whole country or region.

Therefore many local governments, especially in Europe, have chosen to assure the integrity of the local culture by licensing only those guides who have had a formal education and have proved to be knowledgeable and qualified to represent their area or city. Tours conducted by City Guides are often intense and detailed.

Although many tours can be taken on your own with an audio guide, to appreciate and visit the most important sites of our tours we  recommend using one of our private tour guides for the Vatican Museum & Sistine Chapel and for the site of Pompeii

Always dress respectfully when visiting religious monuments; local custom requires covering knees and shoulders. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.
Walking is very limited unlike bus tour where you have to walk most of the day following your guide.

Small Animal are allowed on Private tour please inform before booking
