Overview of your Rome tour

Simply because the whole Historical center of Rome is a UNESCO HERITAGE SITE this open air, private walking tour becomes a delightful stroll and orientation tour to admire the fabulous ancient monuments , fountains and Piazzas decorated with the incredible works of XVII Century architects. During the 17th century Rome was the heart of European art life, achieving such an importance as an artistic crossroad that it more than rivaled the level Paris reached at the end of the 19th century. The different aspects and protagonists of the Baroque movement in Rome, Bernini & Borromini, will be brought about throughout the tour as many others. Sumptuous churches designed by famous architects will show a yet more enticing version of the Baroque. This tour is recommended both for first or second time comers.

Fabio was "spot on" in providing me a great start to my vacation in Italy. Given my jet lag and a nagging back injury, he made just the right adjustments to my tour. His art and history knowledge is excellent and he tuned into my travel interests like a real professional. Thanks Fabio!!!!
