The Heart Of Rome: Family Friendly Private Half-Day Walking Tour

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Explore the best of Rome’s beautiful, historic city centre with a private guide on this family-friendly tour. See the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona, and Castel Sant' Angelo, and enjoy a delicious gelato - on us!

At the magnificent Piazza Navona, hear why Bernini and Borromini hid artistic insults to each other in the Fountain of the Four Rivers and St Agnes Church, and learn about the archaeological lasagna of Rome as your guide shows you the really high flood marker on Piazza Navona and the underground horse racing stadium on which it was built!

End the tour with a visit to the famous Castel Sant' Angelo - tickets included. This castle was first the mausoleum of Emperor Hadrian, and later became a fortress for the popes to live in or hide away from invading armies. Climb up to the ramparts for a spectacular panoramic view over Rome - beneath a giant bronze statue of the Archangel Michael - which is why it is called: the castle of the angel.
