Shiatsu Treatments

Tired after a long day in the city? Rome is beautiful, but visiting it can be exhausting. Would you like to try a beneficial and relaxing treatment that will put you back in the world? I suggest the magical Shiatsu treatments performed by Fabio.

Who is Fabio:

Fabio is a National Shiatsu Instructor of the Namikoshi style at NSE Italy and is authorized by the Japan Shiatsu College to teach the Namikoshi Basic Technique.

NSE Italia is the organization that represents NSE (Namikoshi Shiatsu Europe) in Italy, which in turn represents the Japan Shiatsu College of Tokyo in Europe. This is the same prestigious Japanese School founded in 1940 by Master Tokujiro Namikoshi, considered the Father of Shiatsu.

Fabio began practicing Shiatsu treatments in 1997 after graduating from the Italian-Japanese Shiatsu Namikoshi School in Rome. Since then he has kept himself updated on Shiatsu technique by attending numerous refresher and specialization courses with the greatest Masters of the Namikoshi style in Italy and abroad. Since 2010 he is National Instructor.

How to:

Fabio is available to reach you directly at SERENITY.

Those who would like to book Shiatsu treatments with Fabio can write us, at least one day in advance, an SMS/Message WhatsApp and we will take care of organizing everything.

Relax and gourmet dinner with Chef Claudia, in the comfort of your own home!

Are you planning a particularly long and intense day of visiting the city? Do you think that when you return you won't want to prepare dinner and that you will be too tired to go out and look for a restaurant again? Why don't you treat yourself to an excellent gourmet dinner prepared by Claudia in the comfort of your SERENITY home instead of a sad sandwich or a reheated pizza?

Who is Claudia:

Claudia is an expert and passionate Chef, who chooses high-quality raw materials and prepares them with art and true mastery. If you contact her well in advance (at least one or two days) she will prepare for you - and partly in front of you - a real gourmet dinner with courses from appetizer to dessert. She will take care of everything, if you want even the wine pairing, all you have to do is choose the menu that best suits you and your needs!

How to organize your gourmet dinner at SERENITY

You will need to plan your home gourmet experience well in advance, a gourmet dinner cannot be organized in a few hours. So, to make a reservation, write to Claudia one or better two days in advance at the address telocucinaclaudia@gmail.com or send her an SMS or WhatsApp text message to +39 334 9297788.

Visit monuments and museums with a licensed tour guide and arrange your own customized tour.

If you want to better enjoy the city and understand the history related to the main tourist attractions and not, be guided by an experienced and specialized person. The guides we work with are licensed by the City of Rome and speak your language! Please, if interested, let us know in advance so that we can organize everything in the best way.

Visit of monuments and museums with a licensed tour guide member of Federagit

If you want to visit an archaeological site, a museum or a monument in Rome in a more in-depth and engaging way, we suggest you do it with the help of a licensed tour guide. In the monumental area of Rome, especially around the Colosseum, you will find people who will offer you their services pretending to be tour guides, but in reality they are not authorized. To prevent you from having problems with people who operate illegally, we have made an agreement with Federagit, which is the National Federation of Tourist Guides. The Federagit website is THIS (only in Italian):

When might you need guidance?

Visiting complex archaeological sites like the Roman Forum and Ostia Antica, huge monuments like the Colosseum and St. Peter's Basilica, or incredibly rich museums like the Vatican Museums and the National Roman Museum, could be a disorienting experience. An expert guide will certainly be able to make you better understand the monument you are visiting, making it "come alive". For example, he will explain to you, with proven clarity and simplicity, the stratification of the various architectural elements that compose it. Or, it will tell you about the overlapping of the historical events that took place there. With the help of a qualified guide, everything you might not understand on your own will become clear to you, and will remain in your memories forever!

Why use a licensed tour guide

Beyond ethical considerations that should push us all not to encourage illegal activities, an official tourist guide (i.e. authorized by the Province of Rome) offers you a higher quality service because:

Has a verified and certified high level of historical, archaeological and artistic preparation.
Operating within the National Federation, she is always professionally up-to-date.
He speaks your language really well, whatever it is (Federagit guides are available for many different languages!).
He works with passion, will answer your every question and will know how to involve you during your visit, making it unforgettable.
Even in particularly noisy conditions, you'll hear every word perfectly thanks to the support of a radio with an earpiece if needed.
You can agree with Federagit a personalized itinerary, even outside Rome (for example: the excavations of Ostia Antica, Villa Adriana in Tivoli...).
Practice clear rates, there will be no second-guessing and you won't have to haggle: 165€ for a three-hour personalized tour and 55€ for each hour thereafter. Entrance fees for monuments are not included.
It will issue you an official receipt for the compensation received.

How to organize your visit

If you have decided to ask Federagit for the support of an official tour guide, here's how to do it: our contact at Federagit is Ms. Elena Andreoli; you will need to request the service from her. Do so at least one day in advance, specifying the number of participants, the language spoken and the itinerary chosen.

The best way to make a reservation in a short time is to call Mrs. Andreoli at the number +39 335 5319997: she speaks Italian, English, French and Spanish. Keep in mind that she is a guide, so if she is busy visiting, she may not answer you right away, so try again!
If you have more time and want to book before your arrival in Rome (recommended), send a text message (SMS, Whatsapp or Viber) always to the number +39 335 5319997, or an e-mail to the address guideroma.federagit@gmail.com, will get back to you as soon as possible.

If you need help with the organization or further information please contact us freely.
