About Mike
I’m Mike from Rome with Mike, an American who’s called Italy home since 2003.
I help travelers plan relaxed, unforgettable Roman holidays—at a local’s pace.
Think hidden corners, underground sites, and experiences not everyone gets to see.
No rushing, no tourist traps—just smart planning and insider insight.
Whether you’re here for art, history, or food and wine, I’ve got you covered.
Let’s slow it down and make Rome feel like home.
The goal is simple: to help you experience Rome not as a tourist, but as a Roman.
What I can provide
Whether you’re planning an active adventure of the Most Important Landmarks and Museums or a more relaxed Italian escape, I help you create a trip that feels thoughtful, unrushed, and genuinely enjoyable—without the stress or guesswork.
You can book my services for:
• Custom itineraries and itinerary reviews
• One-on-one planning consultations
• Advice on where to stay and how to structure your days
• Activity planning tailored to season, pace, and interests
While my home base is Rome, I also help travelers plan beyond the city, with a focus on Tuscany to Naples—including the Florence, Pisa, Sienna, Pompeii, and the Amalfi Coast—so your journey feels seamless, balanced, and well planned from start to finish
The goal is simple: practical advice, local insight, and a smoother, more authentic Italian experience.
