Itinerary
We leave the ancient world from Capitoline Hill and continue on to Piazza Venezia, where you will admire the Altare della Patria – one of the most amazing monuments and sights to visit in Rome.
This passeggiata (leisurely Italian walk) allows you to witness the most famous monuments in Rome, now illuminated at night. Your Rome by night walking tour would not be complete without a visit to the next stop - the Trevi Fountain. The largest and most famous fountain in Rome, the grandiose Trevi Fountain has been the subject of many stories and movies over the years. And recently restored, it is brighter and more beautiful than ever before.
Our night walking tour continues through the characteristically narrow Roman streets to the square of Santa Maria della Rotonda, home of the Pantheon – whose famous perforated dome still remains the largest and most significant one ever built.
This memorable night tour in Rome concludes with a visit to Piazza Navona- a square made famous by its three fountains by Bernini and extremely interesting anecdotes, which our guides will enthusiastically share with you. This enchanting sightseeing tour allows you to explore the best places to visit in Rome while witnessing the magic of the Eternal City by night.

Traveler reviews
Bad business practices
What an awful experience I had with Viator! I only gave it one star so that I could write this review. The trip was cancelled due to there being too few participants. OK, that was understandable. Unfortunately, Viator or it’s subcontracted service provider decided to book me (and a friend) on a food tour of Rome. I absolutely did not want this, and tried to respond to the text I received, but due to the complications of phone plans and SIM cards, the texts did not go through. I could see that, so I sent a message to PayPal to stop payment. After that, I received messages from the service provider, saying that I had to reject the offer on a specific form by a specific hour that day, even though I had rejected it through PayPal. By the time I received this instruction, the hour had passed. I filled out the form anyway, which stated that 0 of my $90 would be refunded. I received another message from the subcontractor, which I answered, and from Viator, which I answered. I had to explain the situation no fewer than five times - and then I got a message from Trip Advisor wondering what happened. This is nuts. I am on vacation. I signed up for a tour. The provider canceled it. Why should I not have my payment reimbursed? Why is the onus on me to reject the unrelated tour that I was placed into? This is one of the worst business practices that I have ever experienced. I truly hope that I’ll find my payment reimbursed soon. So far I’ve heard nothing about it.
Poor
This tour was cancelled at the last minute we were offered a food tour in replacement. But as we had a Castro tour on the first night decided not to take the alternative. And we took the red bus night tour instead
Did it meet expectations
Seeing the sights at night was beautiful except as the brochure stated, we were very disappointed not to see the Colosseum at night as that was one of our main objectives! Could not hear or understand our guide so did not know what we were looking at. Wish we would have had earbuds with amplifiers like many tours have.
Lousy tour
Your guide unprepared and did not give details of the sights, we did not see the Spanish steps as advertised. The tour was advertised for 3 hours, it lasted one and one half hour. He left us stranded after the tour without any idea how to get to the starting point Very disappointed
Would highly recommend this tour of Rome!
Catia was very knowledgeable. She did a great job of showing us Rome. She also gave us some recommendations for places to eat. Really enjoyed her tour.
