About Walks of Italy

Walks of Italy started with two guys and a simple goal: giving outstanding tours of the Roman Colosseum. Since then, we’ve expanded throughout Italy (and the world) but we still believe that the best tours start with dedicated, intelligent, and above all, passionate people who want to share their history and culture with you. We want you to experience Italy at ground level, with an expert local guide and a small group of like-minded friends. When you wander down that side street, chat with a friendly local, or stumble upon that unforgettable restaurant you make a real connection with a place. From Rome to Pompeii, Florence to Venice, Milan to the Amalfi Coast, our teams of local insiders are helping you connect to the stories, people, and cultures of Italy. So what are you waiting for? Take walks.

Uncooperative and inhuman tour operator Uncooperative and inhuman tour operator. we booked a tour for 27MAY for Amalfi coast and pompeii from rome for a couple. Unfortunately one person met with an accident a day before tour at rome where got leg fractured so unable to walk at all and it was well informed to Walks of italy customer service team on 26MAY morning. They asked us to send the refund application alongwith hospital document proof thru our booking channel which was sent on 26MAY itself as treatment was done by Govt Hospital rome. However after a week, we got to know that they denied the special claim refund. This tour operator is only about money even if there is a case of accident emergency. Worldwide all good tour operators allow a refund in such special cases. But only an inhuman & only low grade materialistic approach operators behave in such manner. Also to our observance their tour rates are much higher than other operators for same tour. This company shud be avoided for all tours offered by them.

Rude English guide We rushed through traffic in a scooter to meeting point for Walk tours night Vatican. Arrive just in time. but tour guide left. We ran up 40 steps cross st to Vatican entry . Went through security tryed to find an English speaking guide. When we did she was rude to us . said her tour was full.find another. we ask if she can call other guides she was No Help. We had to spend another 36E for tickets to get into Vatican. We followed map through galleries. mid way we heard another English speaking guide who only had a small group of 10. I ask her if she was missing us she said yes. Gave us 1 mic to hear her. She was very nice but I had to listen closely as I did not have a mic. Advice night tour less crowded but arrive very early because the giide leaves early. Walk tours would not refund the extra ticket cost .

Do not book with this company. Booked 2 fully refundable tours with them. Cancelled 3 months ago, and was told I would receive my refund. Now they are refusing a refund, even though they incurred zero expense related to my tour cancelling. They will no longer answer emails. I will be filing a dispute with my credit card company, to which they basically said “go ahead, the fine print says we can keep your money” (which they are wrong). Do not book with this company, who are taking advantage of the COVID situation in order to try to keep our money. Fraudulent and disgusting. Do not book with them.

Big rip off Horrible customer service. Booked well before COVID and their cancellation policy clearly stated a refund would be given if cancelled within 72 hours of scheduled tour. We followed those regulations and they Have refused to honor their own policy!!!!!! They have since adjusted their website to benefit them! Their customer service is awful and I would strongly recommend not using this company ever!

Booked tour over a month in advance didn’t receive a tour. Booked tour over a month in advance. After finding the complicated meeting point we were told that they did not have our reservation and that it must have been moved. The voucher we received from Viator had a link for the tickets that said we would receive the tickets at the meeting point from guide. Once told our tour must have been moved, I pressed a link to contact tour guide ..here I found a message they had sent me (not an email but in a random “chat”, that they had to move my tour to 5 hours earlier. This was sent 6 days prior..I booked and paid 36 days prior..Still waiting to hear about a refund but worry, after reading other reviews, that we won’t get it. I have all the emails of booking confirmations..
