I’ve added a link at the left to Eternal City Tours – the group that sponsors Theology on Tap in Rome, and offers great tours, of course. From their website:

Eternal City Tours is comprised of students from some of the various Pontifical Universities here in the Eternal city of Rome; some are pursuing Masters Degrees, and some even working on their Doctoral Theses, notably in Philosophy and Theology. Most of us hail from the United States, some from Canada, but English is our native tongue. We also have a vast array of experience concerning tour-guiding in Rome, having been tour-guides for the past few years, working at the Vatican and also the Roman Forum. As for our circumstances, most of us came to this city almost by chance, and for others, Rome symbolized the heart of world culture and a perfect place to pursue further studies. All in all, we are still drawn here because there is something truly beautiful, or nostalgic about Rome, and only a few places on earth can offer such a semblance. Everyday we walk the same roads and alleys that the greatest and worst of men walked, frequent the same cafes and monuments they entered. There is nothing quite like being present in a city where so many opposites coalesce.
