Roms historiske centrum er blandt de smukkeste og mest genkendelige i verden, fyldt med pladser, springvand, statuer og monumenter, der har holdt turister tilbage i århundreder. På denne tur vil du opdage hjertet af den evige stad Rom, og det er den bedste og nemmeste måde at dække alle de must see seværdigheder i det historiske centrum med en venlig, professionel guide, der vil få dig til at føle, at du er en lokal i Rom. Lær om historie, arkitektur og lokale hemmeligheder, mens du let går gennem byens centrum. Dette er den bedste måde at få en fornemmelse af byen på, mens du lærer noget af historien. Vi ser frem til, at du slutter os til os.
Du starter turen med at møde din venlige, professionelle guide på vores mødested i centrum af byen på Piazza Venezia. Denne plads har været byens centrum i over 2000 år, og arkitekterne, der formede den udsigt, vi ser i dag, spænder fra Julius Cæsar til Napoleon og endda Michelangelo, hvis kunstners atelier lå på netop denne plads! Her vil du lære om alle de forskellige påvirkninger, der formede Rom gennem dets lange historie og gjorde den til den by, den er i dag. Du får også udsigt til det store monument Altare della Patria, mere almindeligt kendt som Vittoriano, da det er et monument dedikeret til Italiens første konge.
Fra Piazza Venezia vil en kort gåtur tage dig til Largo di Torre Argentina, hvor gamle templer tårner sig op over det faktiske sted, hvor Julius Cæsar blev myrdet. Her vil du lære mere om Julius Cæsars utrolige liv og grufulde død, hvordan han gik fra en ukendt soldat til at regere et imperium, og hvorfor det hele blev taget så voldsomt fra ham.
Derfra fortsætter turen til den smukke barokke plads Piazza Navona for at se de berømte springvand designet af Bernini. Lær om hans rivalisering med Borromini, den store mester, der byggede St. Agnes-kirken ved siden af, og kampen, som dette førte til, og se stedet, hvor Tom Hanks næsten druknede i filmen 'Engle og dæmoner'. Din guide vil også give dig indsigt i traditionen med at have aperitivo på pladsen og fortælle dig om de bedste steder at tage del i denne italienske kulturelle oplevelse.
Derefter går vi mod Pantheon, den kristne kirke, der engang var et tempel for alle de romerske guder, og beundrer arkitekturen i den ikoniske fritstående kuppel, der har stået i sin oprindelige form, siden kejserne regerede Rom. Her, for dem, der ønsker det, har vi mulighed for at stoppe for en kop kaffe eller en gelato, før vi går videre mod Trevi-fontænen, og stopper på vejen for at se nogle skjulte perler.
Trevi-fontænen er blevet et af de mest ikoniske monumenter i byen og baggrunden for mange legender på skærmen fra Audrey Hepburn til James Bond, og at kaste en mønt over skulderen i springvandet sikrer, at du kommer tilbage til byen. Vi stopper og beundrer springvandet, mens du lærer stedets historie, samt præcis hvordan du kaster din mønt i springvandet.
Sidst men ikke mindst går turen mod Piazza di Spagna og den verdensberømte Spanske Trappe. Omgivet af de bedste modemærker i dag, har trapperne, der fører op til kirken Trinita dei Monti, altid været et fashionabelt sted at hænge ud, siden de stod færdige i 1725 og har været et fælles tilholdssted for kunstnere, modeller og digtere den dag i dag. Turen slutter på toppen af trappen med udsigt over byen fra en af de bedste udsigter i byen, hvor du kan suge det hele ind og undre dig over, hvad der er det næste for denne stadigt skiftende by.
For at få fuld refusion skal du afbestille mindst 24 timer før det planlagte afgangstidspunkt.

Overall, an excellent experience - Jaime (from Scotland!) was extremely animated and knowledgeable - explaining the various historical and artistic artifacts along the way. Of course, some of the main / popular areas, were very crowded but this is normal nowadays. I recommend Jaime to anyone who wants to go "below the surface" and really understand the background of each location!
Ciao! Thank you so much for your review, we are glad that you enjoyed the tour with RomanVacations!
James was a very good guide, very knowledgable and provided a lot of good history. Covered a decent amount of ground in a short time
Thanks Tim! We're so glad you had a great time exploring the city with James!
Excellent tour and Jamie was great and so informative. Definitely recommend
Ciao Kerry! Many thanks for your kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed the tour with Jamie. He has such a passion for the history, and a natural enthusiasm, that his tours are always engaging yet informative at the same time. We hope to see you back in Rome soon. Safe travels!
This was the best tour we had in Rome. Jamie was so knowledgable. He told us historical information well beyond the normal guide. His passion was infectious. When we are in Rome again we will ask for him specifically and take the same tour again. We highly recommend you take this tour. It's better than the large group tours where we are rushed through everything to complete the tour.
Ciao John! Many thanks for your kind words. Jamie is an infectious personality and mixed with his passion for history, it all adds up to a memorable tour. We are so glad you enjoyed the experience with him, and we look forward to having you back in Rome, hopefully soon. Safe travels!
James was a great tour guide. We loved how detailed he was and how he made the entire trip informational. Every couple steps, he would give us some additional pieces of information.
Ciao Ethan! Many thanks for your kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed the tour with James. He has such a depth of knowledge that he could easily spend all day talking about the history of this amazing city. We hope to see you back in Rome soon. Safe travels!
Very nice experience. Though we were running late because our map kept leading us to the wrong place, Daniel waited for us, and we weren’t disappointed. Daniel took us to many historical sites and was patient in letting us take time to take pictures. Even stopping to treat us both to some delicious ice cream. The best I ever tasted, from 150 flavours to choose from. A very great tour, a very good tour guide. Barbara and Joe
Ciao! Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review, we are glad that you enjoyed the tour with us and had a great experience! Safe travels!
Not great, couldn't understand the tour guide very well with his American accent. also one of us was russian and one Estonian and understood nothing at all, he seemed like he couldn't be bothered and seemed quite anti Rome. The tour we paid for said includes coffee or Ice cream, but tour guide said he would only pay for I've cream.
Ciao Avril! We are sorry that the guides accent wasn't suitable for you, but we do use the best guides available to us and the guide you had is one of our best. We haven't had anyonce comment on his accent in the years he has been working for us. We will speak with him regardless. We hope the rest of your time in Rome was enjoyable. Safe travels!
On the day of the tour we had "Severe Thunderstorm" warnings and rain. On top of that, my partner woke up feeling under the weather. We asked if we could postpone the tour one day. Not cancel, not refund, just postpone. There were no tickets needed to any of the attractions...it was simply a walking tour. Even Viator reached out to the tour company for us. They told us (and Viator) no. Was hoping for a little grace and sympathy, but you won't get it from these guys. Plan accordingly.
Ciao Jade! Many thanks for sharing your opinion. The guide was there to carry out the tour this morning, but you didn't show for the reasons you listed. We understand this, but the guide still needs to be paid for their time regardless, hence why we couldn't simply move your reservation. We hope you manage to have a wonderful time in Rome. Safe travels!
We were able to see and hear about the interesting history all along the walking tour. I would recommend this experience
Ciao! Many thanks for your kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed the experience with us, and hope to see you back in Rome soon. Safe travels!
