Carpe Diem Tours was born out of passion and a desire for something better. In 2019, after some seasonal work with local tourism companies, we were disappointed. Their tours fell flat—lacking adventure, excitement, and quality—and we knew we could do it better. So, we set out to create the kind of tours that leave a lasting impact, our goal being to be the best local tour company out there.
Fast forward to the scorching summer of 2022, while everyone else was cooling off at the beach, we were in Florence (yeah, tough life) crafting our tours. By autumn, we expanded from Carpe Diem Rome to Carpe Diem Tours, and the rest is history.
Since then we’ve crossed borders and now we’re in Barcelona, Lisbon, London, Madrid, and Budapest, with our sights set on even more.
Forget cookie-cutter tour groups. Join locals and uncover authentic Europe with hand-picked experiences. The day isn’t ours—it’s yours. Let’s help you seize it!
At Carpe Diem Tours we create high quality experiences that bring destinations to life, creating memories that go beyond the tour itself.
We’re travellers just like you. Plus, we know what we’re doing and that always helps.
We’re travellers at heart, so we know what travellers want. We’ve handcrafted experiences you won’t find anywhere else, planning every detail down to a “T”.

We’re willing to go the extra mile to ensure you have the holiday of your dreams. Our guides strive to give you the attention you need with tailored-to-you recommendations and personal anecdotes that’ll have you feeling well cared for and connected to the place you’re in.
