Private Best of Rome Tour | Roma | Italy

We’ll begin our introduction to Rome in the elegant and stately Piazza del Popolo, leisurely snaking through the neighborhood known commonly as Tridente, or “Trident.” As we stroll through one of the most elegant areas of Rome, we’ll sift through the remains of imperial tombs and obelisks, medieval churches and their legends, Renaissance palaces and princes, and modern efforts at urban development and renewal, before winding up at the Spanish Steps. Here, we’ll discuss the history of this Roman icon, from its origins—ironically as much French as Spanish—to its present-day popularity. Next we’ll make our way over to the legendary Trevi Fountain, where we’ll discuss the importance of water to the city, the competition that birthed its design, and the dramatic scene portrayed by its sculptures. Finally, working our way further south through central Rome’s circuitous, scenic streets, we’ll wrap up our walk at one of the city’s most dramatic, commanding sites—the Pantheon.
