When calling a policeman "Buffone" (clown) was not a crime ...

blank

In the middle of Piazza Venezia, for many years, a policeman with a gesture of rare elegance has managed the passage of millions cars, often giving precedence to Popes and Heads of State.
He is now retired: his name is Mario Buffone (and Buffone, in Italian, means "clown")

blank

His gestures, witnesses report, was so spectacular that the Romans, in homage to the great director, had nicknamed him "the Riccardo Muti of traffic".

The famous Italian actor Alberto Sordi was inspired by him for a very famous movie.

It was known that every time Alberto Sordi used to drive through that square he opened the car window and greet him with a "Ciao Buffone!! (Hi clown!)"

The tour of the Colosseum, Forum and Palatine Hill that I have wanted to do for a long time. Camilla was a perfect choice. Prepared, friendly, patient with my many questions. I will recommend her to my friends. Thanks Camilla!

The squares of Rome are very interesting

My wife and I went on a tour of Rome's squares with Camilla. Although I was a little skeptical at first and took this tour by suggestion of my wife, I must say it turned out to be spectacular, and that Camilla was simply a fantastic guide.

I had always tried to imagine what was behind the Vatican doors. This tour finally introduced me to a reality that had intrigued me all my life.

Rome in a Day

Without straining we were able to see in one day all the most famous glimpses of Rome, also recognizing many places seen in the great films of Italian cinema. A day that I would suggest to anyone who goes to Rome.

Forum and Palatine
Read More
We all know the Colosseum, but perhaps we know less about the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill. Camilla has a perfect way to make you "travel" in Imperial Rome, among historical data, curiosities, secrets ... Not only a great day, but also useful, very useful!

As a teacher I tell you: do it!
Read More
All my life I taught History and Letters in high school, and I thought that a tour like the Colosseum could tell me little, and in fact I had organized it mostly for my wife and my daughter. Actually, this guide has been able to illuminate some aspects of the life of Roman citizens that were completely unknown to me. We never know enough about Rome.

The Sistine Chapel is an incredible emotion
Read More
Before doing this tour of the Vatican I knew that the Sistine Chapel is one of the most important and famous works of art in the world, but I would never have imagined the emotion that entering that place caused me. There are no words to describe it. Thanks Camilla, for your expert and complete guide.

How nice the tour of the squares!
Read More
When we think of the squares of Rome we always imagine the most famous ones, such as the Spanish Steps or Piazza Navona. But those who are not from Rome, like me, often do not even suspect how beautiful many other squares of this incredible city can be! I recommend you do this tour with Mrs. Verdacchi, you won't regret it!
