What you’ll do

Ah, Rome! A stunningly beautiful city where love comes alive. Every time I go there, it's like a whole new adventure. There's so many things to do and see. Get ready to dive headfirst into the heart of Rome, guided by a local host who knows the city like the back of their hand. This experience is your all-access pass to my favorite iconic landmarks and hidden gems found all over Rome.

First stop: the legendary Trevi Fountain. Picture this – you're standing in front of one of the world's most famous fountains, its waters sparkling under the Roman sun. Oceanus, the god of the rivers, commands the scene from his shell chariot, flanked by horses and tritons. It's pure magic, and you'll have plenty of time to snap selfies and capture the perfect video. And here's a fun fact: toss a coin over your left shoulder, and legend has it you're destined to return to Rome. Hungry? Grab a gelato from Gelato Italiano nearby and savor its creamy goodness as you stroll through the picturesque streets, soaking up the Italian vibes.

Next, wander over to the Chiesa di Sant'Ignazio di Loyola. This church is an absolute stunner, with jaw-dropping frescoes that seem to stretch the ceiling to the heavens. The artwork here plays tricks on your eyes, creating the illusion of a massive dome. Your host will share the secrets behind this visual masterpiece and might even treat you to the ethereal sounds of the choir if you're lucky.

From there, head to the Pantheon, an ancient temple that's as impressive today as it was 2000 years ago. As you approach, the sheer size of this architectural wonder will leave you in awe. Step inside and look up – the dome is a marvel, with a central oculus that lets in beams of light, illuminating the marble-clad interior. It's no wonder this place has inspired architects for centuries. Your host will fill you in on all the fascinating details, from its pagan origins to its role as a Christian church.

By now, you'll be ready for a culinary adventure. Just a short walk away is Alfredo alla Scrofa, the birthplace of Alfredo pasta. Yes, the legendary dish was invented right here! Sit down, relax, and indulge in a plate of creamy, buttery pasta perfection. Pair it with a glass of fine Italian wine, and you're in for a treat. Your host will make sure you have the best seat in the house, turning this meal into a highlight of your Roman journey.

Whether you're a history buff, an art lover, or just here for the food, this Roman escapade promises unforgettable moments and a deeper connection to the Eternal City. So, gear up for a day of tossing coins, savoring gelato, and soaking in the magic of Rome. And remember to take photos!

Bea was a fantastic guide. She was warm and engaging. She's bright and very knowledgeable. She has an artist's soul so it was easy to connect while she shared some of her favorite places in Rome. She was also very flexible regarding the itinerary. It was an exceptionally hot day so the plan we initially laid out had to be adjusted. She pivoted like a pro, without complaint. Ask for Bea if you want an intelligent (she knows German and Chinese!) guide who radiates warmth and personality.

We had a great trip with our guide Vania. Her communication prior to the trip was excellent and she listened to my requirements and tailored a trip to suit. It was a fantastic mix of churches, tourist sites and local food delicacies. She showed us a few local secrets that we would never have found otherwise.

We booked our tour through VIATOR and were fortunate to secure Alex from City Unscripted as our guide. Alex was great and his depth of knowledge was a real benefit to our tour as he has able to explain the significance of each of the sites we visited. If you plan on doing this tour see if you can line up Alex as your guide, you won't be disappointed.

Alex had a depth of knowledge that we did not expect. His detailed explanation of the importance of each site was superb and he really looked after us in explaining what was in front of us. Couldn’t recommend Alex high enough.
