Private Family-friendly Guided Tour & Art Workshop - Rome

We had a wonderful time during the museum experience! AJ guided us through the modern art museum, teaching us about different types of art genres. After each genre we would stop and do our own take on the genre. My 6 year old really enjoyed the experience, looking at the art and making her own. Perfect way to spend the afternoon!

AJ was fantastic! This is our favorite tour in Rome with grandchildren 9 and 15. We learned about art, saw work by masters, and got to use our own creativity. AJ was very knowledgeable and shared her enthusiasm well. I consider myself the opposite of artistic, and even I found a creative spark. That’s kind of miraculous! We will always remember it. (Also consider, it’s air conditioned and doesn’t require a walking marathon. You can’t beat that in Rome in a heat wave.)

We had such a fun, unique experience with AJ at the Modern art museum. We were in Italy in July with 4 kids and they all (ages 11, 9, 7, and 5) loved this experience. AJ did such a wonderful job teaching us about the art we were looking at and created a fun experience of recreating our own art pieces. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with kids wanting a little relief from the heat and crowds and getting such a personal experience. The art we created is such a special souvenir for us from this trip. And AJ went above and beyond, recommending restaurants for us to visit. We loved this experience and wish the best of luck to AJ and her business !

AJ was fantastic! My daughter and I had a great time.

AJ was amazing! We are a family of 3 with an almost 6 year old. She kept everyone engaged and was so amazing to our daughter. Her activities were fun, she answered questions, and showed us specific art pieces. She is very engaging and really helps the kids enjoy the museum. I was very impressed and would highly recommend this tour. This has been our daughter’s favorite activity and the adults loved it as well.

We absolutely loved this tour with AJ! It was such a thoughtful and engaging way to introduce our child to modern art in a museum setting. AJ made the artworks approachable and fun, using stories, questions, and hands-on activities that really captured our child’s attention. The art lab portion was a highlight our child felt inspired by what they had seen in the galleries and loved having the chance to create their own artwork afterward. It wasn’t rushed or overwhelming, but calm, creative, and perfectly paced for kids. As parents, we appreciated how AJ encouraged curiosity and imagination rather than “right or wrong” answers. This experience turned a museum visit into something meaningful and memorable for our whole family. If you’re visiting Rome with kids and want an enriching, creative museum experience, this experience is truly special and highly recommended.

So great! This is an incredible way to introduce kids to art history/education. Our family of 4 ( 6 and 11 year old girls) loved this experience. AJ is very knowledgeable and she knew how to engage both of our daughters. The hands-on art projects were educational and fun for the girls, but mom and dad as well! Our family arrived a bit late due to unanticipated travel complications and AJ was so patient. She went out of her way to ensure we got the most out of our experience! We would absolutely book another tour with AJ.

Such a lovely experience for families! AJ made Italian modern art easy and fun to follow, and the kids were genuinely excited to create their own artworks right there in the gallery. Great mix of learning, creativity, and quality time together—highly recommend.

Such a wonderful family experience in Rome! AJ has an amazing way of turning the city into a playful “art lab” where kids stay engaged the whole time—and parents genuinely enjoy it too. The animal-spotting mission was a huge hit (our kids were on a full-on treasure hunt mode), and the stories AJ shared along the way made famous landmarks like the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon feel even more special. The stop at the cat sanctuary was the cherry on top—pure joy! We also loved the creative art activity at the end: relaxed, well-organized, and a perfect way for the kids to turn what they’d discovered into their own little masterpieces. We left smiling, inspired, and with souvenirs we actually made ourselves. Highly recommended!

We attended the child art workshop in Rome and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was warm, inspiring, and perfectly organized for children to explore their creativity. The instructors were patient, friendly, and made every child feel confident and proud of their artwork.

We had such a wonderful time at this art workshop in Rome! The atmosphere was creative, warm, and so inspiring for the kids. They felt free to express themselves and explore different materials. Highly recommended for families who love art and imagination!

Amazing tour guide! She led the most fantastic tour for me and my kid and his friends. She masterfully wove together art and history in a way that was so cool and easy to understand. It was the perfect mix of learning and having a great time. Her energy is infectious, and she made sure our entire group was engaged and laughing. Don't think twice—book a tour with her!

This guided tour was exceptional! We had so much fun and I learned so much. I went with my family and little cousins, perfect to keep the little ones entertained and the adults exploring. Interactive and engaging, would 100% recommend!

This is the tour we’re looking for with kids. In the city of Rome, there’s not many chances like this that the family can really try out the painting skills while visiting the gallery, which is fantastic. AJ is such a kids-friendly, knowledgeable person that delivers those skills in an easy way. We enjoyed our moment very much. Definitely worth to try with kids.

AJ was amazing! It was so fun seeing all the art in the gallery and having the kids be able to do art surround by masterpieces.

Great! I've followed some friends and their kids in this experience and I can say I've had so much fun! Very instructive. Thanks.

An absolute must must must when you are in Rome with kids. This was so fabulous. Fun and a great learning experience. My kids had a fabulous time. I was in Rome in early May 2025 with my family. I booked this tour with AJ and had my Mother-in-law and my two boys (age 5 and 9) in tow. So. Much. Fun. I wanted something fun and educational and AJ delivered. The kids actually had a blast and as anyone with small kids knows, it is not easy to keep them entertained. My 9 year old actually remembers some of the stuff he learned and said that spending the day with AJ learning about art and creating art was one of the most memorable of our trip. My 5 year old loved it to. I can’t say enough to AJ to thank her for the great time. A memorable experience no one will forget. Thank you AJ 😊

They were very attentive, it was a great experience. Thank you so much for everything. Our children had a wonderful experience and are very happy.

A fantastic experience and one to definitely book for your trip to Rome. We both learnt a lot from AJ, her knowledge is invaluable and her approach gets you to appreciate art from a different perspective. She was great to talk to and engaged my very fidgety and energetic son. Would highly recommend!

Such a fun way to explore Rome! AJ kept the kids curious and engaged the whole time with creative activities and cool stories about the city’s landmarks. We all learned something new and had a great time—definitely a highlight of our trip!

Such a great experience! AJ made modern art feel fun and easy to understand for everyone in the family. We all felt welcome and left feeling inspired. A lovely break from the usual tourist stuff—highly recommend!

We had a wonderful day with AJ. AJ was great, knowledgeable, passionate about her work and my kids loved her. After exploring the museum, we did fun art activity and had so much fun. Thank you so much for an educational and fun day AJ!

We had a very enjoyable day. My children had a great time and really liked AJ. Thank you very much for the attention and care. We are looking forward to the next one.

AJ’s workshop is amazing, she is very patient with my small child at 4 years old, and got lots of knowledge about arts. We enjoy the workshop a lot and will definitely recommend it to my friends who will visit Rome!

This experience is exactly what we were looking for. AJ was so great at explaining modern art in a relatable way for the whole family. We came out of the museum with a new appreciation for italian modern art. The kids were so engaged and loved the art activities!

This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! It was lovely taking a break from the crowds of Rome, in a beautiful museum.(such a hidden gem!)AJ was so friendly and informative, the whole family joined the art activitities and had so much fun!

A fantastic escape from the Roman crowds! The kids can’t stop talking about AJ and this amazing experience! After a wonderful experience in the city center with AJ, we decided to book another experience with her. AJ's deep knowledge of Italian art, combined with her ability to connect with kids, made the experience truly special. We loved participating in the hands-on art projects and learning in such a beautiful museum. We had some truly quality family time. We'll be recommending this to everyone! Thank you AJ for the magical moments you created for us!

Ece was lovely our children had wonderful time. She makes it educating and fun for everybody. It s always great to get some time off from our double trouble :)

I highly recommend this art workshop for families with kids! It was an incredibly educational experience, packed with creativity and fun. Our instructor AJ was engaging, patient, and knowledgeable, making it easy for kids to learn new artistic techniques while expressing themselves freely. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the activities were thoughtfully designed to be both enjoyable and enriching. My kids had such an amazing time, and we all left feeling inspired. If you’re looking for a meaningful and entertaining family activity, this workshop is a must-try!

Our trip to Rome was full of surprises, and this experience was one of the best, especially for our children. The National Gallery of Modern Art is a hidden gem, and AJ made our visit even more memorable for us and the kids with her explanations and activities. In the end, we created our own artworks, inspired by the beautiful paintings in the museum—more wonderful memories from this incredible trip.

This was our second time at AJ’s Little Artists, and it was just as amazing as the first! My kids couldn’t wait to come back, and they loved every minute of it. The activities were fresh and fun, and it was wonderful to see how excited they were to create their own art. As a parent, I really appreciate how this workshop brings us together for such special family time. AJ is fantastic with the kids, and the whole experience feels so personal and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back again—highly recommend!

I had a fantastic time with my niece at AJ's Modern Art Workshop in Rome! AJ's expert guidance made exploring Italian modern art so engaging, and the hands-on activities were a hit with my niece. It was amazing to watch her dive into the creative process, and I found myself getting involved too! The workshop was a perfect blend of learning and fun, and it really brought out the artist in both of us. AJ made it all feel so personal and special, and we left with great memories and beautiful artwork. Highly recommend this workshop for families!

I cannot say enough positive things about AJ. We did her tour/class at the National Gallery. Her enthusiasm for art is evident as is her preparation for the class. Leading us through the galleries we saw a good sampling of the exhibits while doing interesting art projects along the way. Not only did we go home with a new appreciation for the art but we also left with some wonderful art works! I would not hesitate to do the class again as there was so much more to see and AJ is simply the best!

It was a unique experience for me and my little cousins, they drew and listened with great attention to the stories behind each work of art. AJ has an innate talent with children, making all explanations fun and accessible to them. It is definitely an experience that I recommend for those traveling with children in Rome!

This activity was a lifesaver for an unexpected rainy day in Rome with kids! It was great to keep the kids occupied and exited indoors. My daughter who wishes to become a painter amazed with the art pieces and was really happy to improve her creativity. Also my son, who is younger had really fun exploring the museum with lovely AJ!

AJ's interactive art experience was a blast for everyone in the family! She's so patient knowledgeable and personable. My son loved all the art projects he took part in. My husband and I also joined in the art activities even though we don't normally draw and had a great time! We learned so much about Italian art and history. It was educational and fun! I would definitely recommend it to all families travelling to Rome.
