ROME FOUNTAINS, SQUARES AND TASTING

Half Day Walking Tour – Tasting included

Let’s delve into the enchanting streets of Rome, where history and culture intertwine. Our morning walking tour begins at the Meeting Point, where our professional guide awaits. Spanish Steps and Trinità dei Monti: our first stop is the iconic Spanish Steps. These elegant stairs connect the Piazza di Spagna to the Trinità dei Monti Church, perched at the top. The church’s twin bell towers rise gracefully, and its facade gleams in creamy travertine. Trinità dei Monti offers breathtaking views of Rome, a serene oasis amidst the bustling city. Continuation to Trevi Fountain: A Wishful Tradition. As we approach, the sound of cascading water grows louder. The Trevi Fountain is a masterpiece of Baroque art, depicting Neptune, flanked by Tritons and sea creatures. Tradition whispers that tossing a coin over your shoulder into the fountain ensures your return to Rome.

The tour continues to “Piazza della Rotonda”, where you can admire the Mighty Pantheon, a marvel of engineering and spirituality. This ancient temple, dedicated to all the gods, stands as a testament to Roman ingenuity. Its massive dome, with an oculus at its center, bathes the interior in celestial light. Walking along the narrow charming streets, crossing hidden courtyards, reaching Piazza Navona, Bernini’s Masterpiece. This lively square was once the Stadium of Domitian, where chariot races and athletic contests unfolded. Today, it’s adorned with Bernini’s Fountain of Four Rivers a grand centerpiece featuring allegorical figures representing the world’s great rivers. The square buzzes with life, artists, and street performers.

A Culinary Interlude: our senses lead us to a typical Italian Cellar. Here, we indulge in local delights artisanal cheeses, cured meats, and robust wines. The flavors dance on our tongues, connecting us to the land and its people. As we sip and savor, we share stories of Rome’s culinary heritage, passed down through generations.

A Journey Back in Time, our morning tour concludes, but the memories linger.
