My name is David Lown, MA. I am an art historian, writer and the director of Italian Hours.

Private Tours: Your time in Italy is precious so why not make the best use of it by treating yourself to a private tour. Tailored to your requirements and taken at a time, and at a pace, which is convenient to you, a private tour is undoubtedly the best way of making sure you get the most out of your visit.

To help you decide what you might like to see, I have compiled brief guides to Rome, Florence and Venice. The guides, however, offer only suggestions; I can construct an itinerary completely geared to your own particular interests.

I am also happy to arrange tours starting from your Venice, Florence or Rome Hotels.

My experience of introducing people to the cultural delights of Italy goes back many years. As a lecturer in Art History,  I used to run regular study tours of the major Italian cities. In 2001, I decided to settle here permanently and in the following year I set up Roma Antica.
