Stop At: Colle Aventino, Rome Italy

It time to see the Aventino Hill. This elegant residential area is an oasis of gardens and churches with the most divine view over the Tevere. A curious little keyhole offers the strange experience of looking at a miniature version of St. Peter’s Dome.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Piazza del Popolo, 00187 Rome Italy

After the Aventino, you wil admire Piazza del Popolo, an elegant space in the northern quarters of the ancient city with the peculiarity of its twin Churches, Rome’s most ancient original Egyptian obelisk in its centre and the magnificent fountains of Valadier. Behind the simple facade of Santa Maria del Popolo, you will find incredible masterpieces.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Piazza Navona, 00186 Rome Italy

No trip to Rome is complete without a visit to the Piazza Navona, one of the largest squares in the city. The space is incredibly popular among tourists for one primary reason: Bernini’s “Fountain of the Four Rivers.” Built to represent The Nile, The Ganges, The Danube and Rio de la Plata, the structure now sits amidst the artists who arrive to peddle their wares on a daily basis.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Piazza di Spagna, Rome Italy

Hidden down the narrow backstreets of the city, Trevi Fountain is a secretive masterpiece and perhaps the most spectacular fountain in Rome.

The square take its ultimate form almost 100 years later thanks to the inspired design of Gian Lorenzo Bernini who introduced the Tuscan colonnades that now frame the surrounds.

    Ghazwan was wonderful. Very knowledgeable about the area. Would highly recommend you do this tour on your first day so you can see all the sites and then decide which ones you would like to go spend more time at. All stops give you ample time for photo opportunities, never felt rushed. We choose not to return to the hotel and were dropped off to explore more on our own after the tour.
