SEAN P. FINELLI
Co-Owner & The Ideas Man
Sean walked away from a career on Wall Street and swapped the world of Finance for a life in Italy.
With a history book in hand, it wasn’t long before Sean knew every historical site and cobbled street in Rome. He
then used his knowledge and obsession to start guiding groups around the city. Without searching for success,
Sean became known as “The Roman Guy”, a title he then used to build one of the leading travel companies in Italy.
Today, Sean operates from The Roman Guy’s US headquarters in Philadelphia. Yet, he and his team in the States
still wake up each day with Italy on their minds. Sean has made hiring decisions based on the candidate’s obsession
with Italy, over their experience. As well as being co-owner, Sean writes for Forbes, speaks at numerous
Universities and Trade Shows, and has earned a place in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 360 List.
Brandon lives in Rome, Italy. He is a father, entrepreneur, licensed tour guide and a complete history geek.
Brandon has always had a serious case of the “I gotta see that!” syndrome. After living in Russia, France, Italy,
Holland and USA, he decided to make his home in the capital of the world, the Eternal City of Rome. A linguist with
the ability to speak 6 languages, and with 15 years of experience traveling through Italy, Brandon naturally became
the brains that created The Roman Guy’s custom Trip Planning service.
As well as keeping everything under control in The Roman Guy’s Italian headquarters in Rome, Brandon regularly
travels back to the States to speak on stage at events such as the New York Times Travel Show & Boston Globe
Travel Show. He is currently studying to become a sommelier!

We used The Roman Guy to plan our whole trip in Italy. We were there for three
weeks and saw 5 cities, Florence, Sorrento, Rome, Milan and Bellagio.
They planned everything - tours, restaurants, transportation between cities and
from train stations to lodging. They were available for questions any time we
needed throughout our trip. I can not say enough positive things about this team!
They were top notch from the first contact with Filippo to discuss ideas until
we ended our trip in May. Their tours were wonderful with very knowledgeable
and fun guides. Our favorites were the Limoncello Farm Tour in Sorrento,
The Chianti wine tour out of Florence, Early Entrance to the Vatican and
The Food tours in Rome and Florence. Thanks for the giving us a vacation of
a lifetime that was relaxing.... and stress free! I would highly recommend
The Roman Guy for trip planning and any of their tours. We will definitely use
them again when we return to Italy!

“Three weeks in Italy!”
Fabulous tour of the Underground Colosseum and we were lucky enough to have
an archaeologist as our guide. Eleanora was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and
we learned a lot. Aside from the Colosseum experience we then toured Palatine Hill
and the Roman Forum. This 3 and a half hour tour included a lot of walking, so it was
good exercise for us. I wonder if 2 separate shorter tours might be considered as an
option for travelers who can’t manage almost 4 hours. Highly recommend.
- Maggie, 2018 -
ONCE UPON A TIME...
Don’t you
just love a
great story?

A WALL ST. GUY
He gave up a career on Wall Street
to follow his roots back
to the boot.
A WALL ST. GUY
His passion for storytelling earned
him a nickname amongst
visitors to rome: “The Roman Guy”
AWAKE FOR MONTHS
Adopting the nickname, he worked
through the night, consuming several
hundred espressi to start building his brand.
ONE FATEFUL NIGHT
He met another who possessed the
“Roman Guy” spirit at a friend’s
wedding in Transylvania. They
began chatting about Italy.
SAVING ROME
After the wedding, the two returned to
Italy, teamed up and officially
started a specialized tour operator:
IDEAS! IDEAS!
They knew there was something big
missing from Italy tourism - a way to
see the sights without all the crowds!
They made it their mission to fix this.
SMALL GROUPS
They began by offering small group
tours, helping visitors explore
Rome without getting
lost in the crowds.
TEAM OF EXPERTS
A team of passionate Italy Experts soon
joined The Roman Guy on their
mission. Soon there were over

named Italy & decided to
stay a while.
HISTORY CAME ALIVE

history. Soon he was guiding
visitors through the city.
