We are your friends in town.

About
Us

Your Friends in Town started on our days off. Friends from other countries would visit, we’d show them our Rome, and they’d say,

“This was the best day ever! Why don’t you make this a tour?”

So we did.

We came to Rome on different paths and ended up building a life around what we love most: food, wine, and genuine hospitality. Over time, those casual days with friends became something more intentional - still personal, still relaxed, just better organized.

Between us, we bring over 30 years living in Italy, multiple languages, and backgrounds in tourism, luxury real estate, and event management. More importantly, we’ve built real relationships here - with people, places, and neighbourhoods we return to again and again.

We’ve both lived in the US and across Europe, so we understand what you’re expecting. We pair that level of service with real Italian knowledge - not the performance version, the real thing.

Just two people who chose Rome, showing you what we’d show a friend.

Co-founders,
Alena & Alex
