Tour description

Rome is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque cities in the world to explore. Join me on an enchanting stroll through the city centre as we visit some of the major sights that you really shouldn’t miss, plus some of my off-the-beaten-track spots. My route is carefully curated and I make sure to take characteristic little back alleys that few venture down.
We meet at Via Celsa 7 close to Venice Square (Piazza Venezia), in the heart of the Eternal city.
After getting to know each other, we will move to Trajan’s Column and Piazza Venezia and I will begin to explain the ancient Imperial Forum, the unification of Italy, and the rebirth of Rome during the Renaissance. The Trevi Fountain attracts millions of visitors every year and with me, you will find out why! Admire its beauty as I give you the full story behind the fountain and we get to the bottom of the coin-throwing tradition.
The next stop will be in Piazza della Rotunda, the location of the world-famous Pantheon. Experience this most important of Rome’s pagan temples and discover its dynamic uses over 2000 years! We save the best till last: Piazza Navona, which is by far the most elaborate of Rome’s squares.
Absorb the ambiance as we get into the rivalry between the artists whose works have defined the beauty of this square.
We finish near some of the best bars and eateries in Rome!

I would not recommend this tour. It feels like you are in class and listening to a tourguide droning on and on. Sights were good, our guide was not.

Did an afternoon walking free tour on a Saturday. Overall it was decent. I wouldn’t consider it actually “free” because they tell you before you start everyone has to pay 10 euros minimum at the end or cancel before you start. Never had that before with any free walking tour. The information was good I learned a lot but the experience felt rushed. I would rather go over time and experience things instead of having to feel like we’re running from place to place. I wouldn’t recommend this tour I think there are others that maybe better.
