Our friends recommended Sylvia’s tours, and now we know why. This was not just a tour — it was a personal and spiritual journey, and Sylvia was the ideal companion.

We chose the Pilgrimage in Rome tour because we wanted to experience the religious heritage of the Eternal City, but we didn’t expect to be so emotionally moved throughout the day. Sylvia led us to churches that felt tucked away from the typical tourist routes — places like Santa Croce in Gerusalemme, where relics quietly tell powerful stories, and San Giovanni in Laterano, which felt like walking into a cathedral of the soul.
She shared the historical and theological significance of every site without ever sounding rehearsed. Her words were thoughtful and deeply respectful, and she seemed to carry her own quiet reverence for the places we visited.
We were both particularly touched when she paused by the Holy Stairs, giving us time and space to reflect, and gently explained their meaning without interrupting the sacred atmosphere. It was one of the most humbling moments of our time in Rome.
Sylvia never rushed us, never overwhelmed us with facts. She simply walked with us, gently guiding, sharing, and listening. We returned to our hotel that evening feeling quiet, full, and at peace.

For anyone seeking something deeper in their time in Rome, this is the tour to take, and Sylvia is the guide to take it with.
