Born and raised in the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome, I have dedicated my life to sharing the extraordinary history of the Eternal City with visitors from around the world. I hold a PhD in Archaeology from La Sapienza University of Rome and have spent over 8 years crafting immersive, personalized tours that go far beyond what any guidebook can offer.
My philosophy is simple: every visitor deserves to feel the pulse of history beneath their feet. Whether you're a first-time tourist or a repeat visitor, I will show you a Rome you've never seen before — through hidden courtyards, underground ruins, private collections, and the stories of the people who built one of history's greatest empires.
When I'm not guiding, I'm writing for Archaeology Today, restoring vintage Roman maps, and searching for the best supplì in the city.
"Marco was absolutely incredible! He brought Rome's history to life in a way no textbook ever could. We saw hidden gems even locals didn't know about. The arena floor access was breathtaking. Already planning our return trip — and we'll be booking Marco again."
"The rooftop aperitivo at sunset was one of the most magical moments of our honeymoon. Marco's knowledge and passion are extraordinary. He's not just a guide — he's a storyteller. The Premium package is absolutely worth every cent."
"Third time using Wanderlust and Marco is the best guide I've had — and I've had many. His humour, warmth, and encyclopaedic knowledge made a 9-hour tour feel like 2 hours. Book him immediately, you will not regret it."
Tell Marco about your ideal experience and he'll get back to you within 2 hours.
