Overview of your Rome tour

Gorgeous 6 hours walking tour aimed to accommodate those who seek an alternative experience in the city, away from the crowds of the usual well trodden must-see places. Starts in Trastevere; a magnificent renaissance villa of a rich banker hides some precious artworks by Raphael and his followers. Crossing Sixtus IV Bridge on the river Tiber I will show you an authentic district in Rome, we will look at the serene elegance of Piazza Farnese and head towards one of the still buzzing market in the city center, Campo de' fiori. The last hour before our lunch break will be dedicated to the magnificent Doria Pamphili painting Gallery, a stunning, still privately owned collection in a gorgeous XVII century Palazzo. After our lunch break we will head towards Capitoline Hill: once the most sacred hill in Ancient Rome and today's city hall. Michelangelo's plan and the historical painted halls of the Capitoline Museums will bloom through its comprehensive classical roman art collection.

Our customized tour with Fabio was fabulous!! His vast wealth of knowledge about the history of Rome, its museums and art was impressive. He did a beautiful job of guiding our small Georgia group through two incredible museums (Borghese & Doria Pamphili) as well as the Jewish District. Thank you Fabio for making our last day in Rome outstanding!

I had been to Rome over 2 dozen times so I suppose I could be demanding but Mr. Pinelli handled the tour so well with almost native English, kind patience as well as outstanding knowledge of the city & art history. I have to say he is one of the best art tour guide I have ever encountered in life. I will definately recommend to my art circle in China and to all of you are insterested on a deep but stimulating tour in Rome!
