OverviewSpend the day with the most passionate of our driver-escorts! Ride the hour and 15 minutes to Rome in comfort in your private vehicle, before embarking on a whirlwind tour with a very knowledgeable driver who will take you to all the must-see sites. He will amaze you. Begin at the sites of Renaissance and Baroque Rome of Popes: Piazza Navona, the beautiful Spanish Steps, and, of course, the Trevi Fountain--the city's most famous fountain and a Baroque masterpiece. Legend says that by throwing a coin into the fountain you will ensure your return to Rome. You will also be introduced to the Ancient Rome of Emperors: Capitoline Hill and the famous Roman Forum, the heart of ancient Rome; and the Colosseum, one of the world's most famous buildings and a symbol of the city. Take in the site where ancient Rome's people came to watch gladiators and other spectacles, before continuing on to see Palatine Hill and Circus Maximus. You will pass by several other attractions that your escort will point out to you, such as Castle St. Angelo and its bridge, the Italian Senate, The Marble Foot and Cat Street (Roman Curiosity), Trajan's Column, Imperial Fora, Trajan's Market, The Maps of the Empire, Arch of Constantine, Marcus Aurelius's Column, Parliament and Council of Ministers, St. Nicholas in Chains, temples of Apollo, Vesta, and Janus, and Quirinal Palace. At some point, you will stop for lunch, which can either be a leisurely meal in a local restaurant or a snack at a coffee shop (if you want to be quick!). Your escort will always be ready to suggest the most convenient place in the neighborhood and enjoys taking his visitors to quaint little restaurants where you will get an authentic atmosphere of Rome. Of course, your escort is entirely flexible.
