Description :

Travel through time and admire all of Rome's city center’s must-see art and architecture, all in a single afternoon! We will begin in Piazza del Popolo, which traditionally marks the northern “door to Rome” with the church Santa Maria del Popolo which was often the first church visitors to Rome would see upon entering its gates. The Spanish Steps with their lively atmosphere and stunning view bring us down into the winding alleys of the heart of Rome's historic center – where we encounter the Trevi Fountain, which needs no introduction. Our path continues with a stop at Piazza Colonna which contains the column erected by Marcus Aurelius and is considered by Romans as the very center of the city of Rome. We will also stop at the Pantheon which, with its impressive concrete dome and open oculus, never fails to impress. Nearby we explore Piazza Navona, with Bernini’s famous “Fountain of the Four Rivers” (Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi) triumphantly marking its center. Next, Campo de’ Fiori gives you a taste of one of the liveliest and famous traditional Roman piazzas. During summer months, a complimentary gelato is provided and in the winter months, a complimentary hot chocolate, coffee, or cappuccino is provided for guests.
