Overview of your Rome tour:

If you want to explore the surroundings of Rome and enjoy a very relaxing day this is the tour for you. Breathtaking views, a beautiful archeological site, one of the most beautiful "borgo" in Italy and a toast from the rooftop of an old noble palace are the ingredients for an unforgettable day. Palestrina is the modern name of the ancient Praeneste where is the monumental temple of goddess Fortune, dated back to the 2nd century BC, and where I used to go with my friends when I was a teenager and we seated on the old steps chatting and relaxing. The upper part of the temple was transformed into a fortress in the Middle Ages and then in an elegant palace. The palace today is separated in two parts: a museum and a private residence of the noble family Barberini. Private rooms of the noble family's palace will be specially open only for you, and you can toast with a glass of prosecco from the roof of the private church, enjoying a breathtaking view. A perfect occasion for a marriage proposal or an anniversary.
