Description
At the scheduled time, we'll meet in the centre of Rome, at Piazza di Spagna. Here, we'll learn about the history of this ancient place, a location known all around the world, and has been featured in many AAA movies. Actors such as Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck performed scenes here for the movie, Roman Holiday.
Our free walking tour of Rome will then continue at some of the most renowned artistic spots. Undoubtedly, Rome is the capital city of the Baroque and its accompanying art forms. We'll discover the most typical characteristic of this style of art alongside the world-famous Trevi Fountain, the masterful work by sculptor Nicola Salvi. Be sure to throw a coin into the fountain. Remember, throw with your right hand, over your left shoulder! The money collected from the fountain is used to help out the poor around Rome. The fountain's fame was thoroughly cemented after featuring in the Fellini film 'La Dolce Vita', in which Anita Ekberg takes a dip in its waters.
On this guided tour of the Italian capital, we'll also have ample time to admire the façade and exterior of one of the city's most impressive monuments from the era of Imperial Rome: Agrippa's Pantheon.
After checking out some of the most amazing attractions in Rome's historic centre, we'll bring this tour to an end at the Piazza Navona. Do you know which rivers the fountains in this square represent? True or False, were mock naval battles celebrated here during the era of Imperial Rome? All of these interesting facts will be revealed at the end of the tour.
