Itinerary
Excellent and great way to see the highlights of Rome in a short space of time. Our 3 hours walking tour will give you the best view of the city! Your walking tour of Rome begins at a centrally-located coffee bar in the city center and features famous sites seen in books and movies.
Next, proceed with your visit to the Trevi Fountain, found in a few movies, including Fellini's La Dolce Vita. To take after legend, toss a coin in the wellspring and make a desire that some time or another you'll come back to Rome.
Make a beeline for the Government District, where you'll see the Parliament Building, the Palace of the Council of Ministers, and the Column of Marcus Aurelius. The notable Temple of Hadrian is close-by; Emperor Antoninus Pius constructed the amazing structure out of appreciation for his ancestor.
At that point take after a limited road to see the Pantheon, where Raphael, the Renaissance engineer and painter, lies buried
Your tour will take you to Piazza Navona, a mind-boggling square built above the ruins of the ancient stadium of emperor Domitian that held a staggering 30,000 spectators. Currently the piazza hosts the amazing old church of St. Agnes and the Fountain of the Four Rivers, which was designed in 1651 by Gian Lorenzo Bernini for Pope Innocent X. This tour is excellent to do on your first day in Rome, as doing so will give you a fantastic overview of the highlights of the city and you will learn local rules and customs in no time. Your walking tour will conclude at Campo de' Fiori.

Walking tour worth the walk and price
This walking tour was great. The tour guide was very patient and knowledgable. He gave us a lot of history and answered all our questions. I would do it again, but make sure to wear comfortable shoes.
Great tour
Amazing tour! The guide knew a lot about the city and the history behind the important monuments and did a great job explaining everything.
Awesome
This walking tour was very informative and definitely worth taking in order to get some insight to the main attractions around Rome. Our tour guide was great at explaining each site we visited. He even gave us some tips on safety as well during our stay in Rome.
We weren't sure what to expect for this...
<p>We weren't sure what to expect for this tour, but we booked it anyway. My husband and I ended up being the only two people in this tour. Our tour guide, Virginia, walked us through the strees and she explained the history and interesting facts of all the monuments we saw and even took our picture for us when we asked. She was very friendly and very knowledgeable and she easily made it the best walk we've had through the city. All of the information she knew was fascinating and it was made into a very fun experience.</p>
