Tour description
Rome isn’t just a city, it’s a living museum.
Every street holds a story, every monument has a secret, and most travellers only scratch the surface. This tour is your chance to experience the famous landmarks and hidden gems most tourists miss. Led by a passionate local guide, you’ll uncover the history, legends, and secrets that bring Rome to life.
Who is the man on the massive bronze horse in front of the Vittoriano? What connection does Palazzo Venezia have to one of history’s most powerful leaders? As we explore Trajan’s Column, we’ll reveal the power struggles, ambitions, and transformations that shaped Rome into the city we see today.
At the Trevi Fountain, thousands of tourists toss coins daily — but do they really know what they’re wishing for? Is the tradition truly about returning to Rome, or is there something deeper? There is a secret hidden in history, legends, and a detail most miss — discover it with us.
Our journey ends at Largo di Torre Argentina, where history changed forever with a single act. Curious why? You’ll find out. Along the way, there’s a bonus hidden stop, but only those on the tour will be lucky enough to discover it and at the end of it you’ll receive personal recommendations from your local guide.
