Getting around a different country can be frustrating- from language challenges to dragging luggage or strollers across cobblestone streets, crowds and confusing directions, sometimes you just need an extra hand to show you the way. 

Fortunately, Prontopia makes enjoying a wonderful, stress-free experience in Rome easier than ever! Prontopia will connect you with a local assistant who loves their city, and can share their local knowledge and expertise to help you have the trip of your dreams!

How does Prontopia work? 

1. Go to the Prontopia website
2. Fill the booking form with your pick up location
3. Request local help for the time you need it
4. Service begins when your Prontopia local meets you

Your assistant will meet you at the place you have designated. There are no upfront fees, as you simply pay-as-you-go (as little as 20 Euros per hour), paid by the minute. Your local will help you get from door-to-door without the stress of navigating a foreign city alone. And above all, you will get to see the city from a local’s perspective!

Why should you use Prontopia?

Since its inception, Prontopia has saved countless customers from wasting time & money, as well as helped avoid any unnecessary stress during their holidays in Rome, Venice, Florence, Naples, and Barcelona. Often, travelers can miss out on enjoying their trip because of missed buses, incorrect tickets, map issues, or any other hitches that can happen along the way.

Today, travelers to Rome (and all other cities where the service is available!) can use Prontopia for a variety of needs, including arrival, departure and in-trip requests.

Meet your local assistant at Prontopia

A Prontopia local assistant can meet you upon your arrival at the airport, train station, or anywhere nearby. Whether you choose to walk or use local transportation, you can have a trusted local friend to guide you, helping you carry your belongings and avoiding expensive mistakes, creating a safe experience.

Prontopia doesn’t just work upon arrival: in the middle of your trip, you can have a Prontopia local assistant show you the places they love, help you buy entrance tickets to famous sights, tell you all about favorite local restaurants, or help you get to an appointment or excursion on time.

And before departure, your Prontopia local assistant can help you carry your bags, choose the best route to the airport based on the time of day, and even help you find meaningful souvenirs before you leave.
