What makes Rome’s Great Beauty Private Tour: Best Squares and Fountains a unique experience ?
Begin your tour at Piazza di Spagna, where the famous Spanish Steps await. This monumental staircase have long been a gathering spot for artists, poets, and fashionable visitors seeking to experience the city’s vibrant social scene. At the base of the steps, find the charming Fontana della Barcaccia, a unique fountain designed by Pietro Bernini, father of Gian Lorenzo, the artist of the Four River Fountain, in the shape of a sunken ship.
Stroll through Rome’s narrow and vibrant streets to reach the iconic Trevi Fountain, a stunning baroque spectacle that draws visitors from all around the world. Learn to recognize the figures represented in the 18th-century design where the dramatic sculpture of Neptune, the god of the sea, is flanked by allegories of abundance and health. Toss a coin over your shoulder and, according to tradition, you’re guaranteed a return to Rome.
Guided by an art enthusiast, discover all the details behind the enormous structure of the Pantheon and its patron, the Emperor Hadrian. From the outside, this ancient temple impresses with its massive portico, supported by towering columns.
Immerse yourself in the charm of Rome’s iconic squares as your private tour takes you to the magnificent Piazza Navona, a baroque jewel brimming with history and artistic rivalry. Once the site of Emperor Domitian’s ancient stadium, the square retains the shape of the Roman arena, offering a glimpse into its imperial roots.
As the sun begins to set and the city lights start to twinkle, your private tour of Rome’s piazzas takes on a new, magical dimension. Go through Largo di Torre Argentina, a captivating archaeological square in the heart of Rome, where ancient history and modern life intersect. Here, Julius Caesar met his fate in 44 BCE. This historic location is also home to a cat sanctuary, where stray cats roam freely among the ruins, creating a unique blend of ancient drama and present-day charm.
The end of your tour will be Piazza Mattei, a tranquil jewel tucked away in Rome’s historic Jewish Ghetto, offering a serene escape from the city’s bustling streets. Its highlight is the Fontana delle Tartarughe (Fountain of the Turtles), a Renaissance masterpiece. The fountain’s harmonious design and playful turtles evoke a sense of whimsy, while the square’s quiet beauty and historic surroundings make it a perfect spot for reflection and exploration.
