About Rovers
About Rovers
Matteo and I, Celia, are the happy co-founders of Rovers. We met in London in 2015, lived & worked as licensed tour guides in Rome (Matteo’s hometown) and Paris (Celia’s hometown) for several years.
After years of guiding, we matured a project that reflects our values and represents what we aspire to: a better and more inspiring travel experience.
The idea of Rovers was born from a desire to create a community of expert guides that could help travellers discover their destination through stories, insights, personal experiences, in a way that is simple, funny and accessible to a wide audience by sharing authentic moments with locals during cultural, gastronomic, sensory activities and tours.
If you’re driven by curiosity and want to add meaning to your travel, you’re definitely one of us!
Matteo
I grew up in Rome, but it wasn’t until I left that I really realised how beautiful it was. When I came back from London, I had a different perspective and rediscovered my native city. I also started training in photography and filmography to capture the monuments, the streets, the people, the moments of life.
Becoming a guide was an obvious choice to find the answers and to share them with the curious people who follow my guided tours. That’s what Rovers means to me: sharing a moment to make a traveller live an authentic experience like a Rover.
Celia
Born in Paris, I’ve always had a passion for travelling. As a child, I often visited the Louvre and the capital’s many museums with my family. After living in London and Rome, I was able to combine my taste for art and culture with my language and communication skills. Guiding was just perfect for me!
That’s what Rovers means to me: authentic sharing, between a traveller who has come to discover a place and a local Rover.
