From there, in the Quirinale district of Rome, you will walk to the Trevi Fountain, which is known as one of the most stunning fountains in the world. But there’s a lot more than just beauty behind this famous fountain that you will get to know.
The tour of the squares and fountains continues to the Pantheon, built as a temple to all the gods of Olympus. The dome of the Pantheon is the largest in the world since ancient times. After spending some time at the Pantheon, you will head to Piazza Navona, which this baroque square dates back to ancient Roman times. Piazza Navona is the delight of Baroque Rome, with architectural elements and sculptures by masters such as Gian Lorenzo Bernini (Fountain of the Four Rivers in the center of the square, which is the Danube, the Ganges, the Nile and the Rio de la Plata, the four corners of the Earth), Francesco Borromini and Girolamo Rainaldi (the Church of St. Agnes in Agony, in front of the fountain by Bernini) and Pietro da Cortona (author of the frescoes of the gallery of the Palazzo Pamphili).
Continue your stroll to Campo de ‘Fiori. Since 1869 this square has been the home to a colorful local market of groceries. Leave Campo de Fiori and head to the enigmatic site of Julius Caesar’s assassination. This place is called Sacra Area di Largo di Torre Argentina, where according to historians, Julius Caesar was stabbed to death.
Your final stop of your tour will be at the Vittoriano, commemorating the unification of Italy. This monument began in 1885 and inaugurated in 1911 in honor of Victor Emmanuel II of Savoy, the first king of Italy. The views that it offers once you are at the top are amazing and spectacular. Enjoy a very special walk around the city center in a private experience.
