  Our route continues past the Circus Maximus, the largest and oldest chariot-racing stadium in Rome, dating back to the 6th century BC. Capable of seating around 250,000 people, it was the epicenter of Roman entertainment for centuries. The Circus was also a place for public gatherings, triumphal processions, and religious festivals, reflecting the cultural and political life of the empire.

  We stop at the tranquil Orange Gardens on the Aventine Hill, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Rome. Though the gardens were created in the 20th century, the hill itself holds deep history, once the site of ancient Roman aristocratic villas and later Christian churches. From here, you can see landmarks like St. Peter’s Basilica, the Tiber River winding through the city, and the sprawling ruins of the Palatine Hill.

  Fontana dell'Acqua Paola

  Our next stop is the Fountain of Acqua Paola, constructed in 1612 to celebrate the restoration of the ancient Aqua Traiana aqueduct. This grand Baroque fountain marks the arrival of fresh water to the Janiculum Hill area, a crucial development in Rome’s water supply. The fountain’s majestic design, with its cascading water and classical motifs, embodies the city’s ongoing relationship with its ancient engineering heritage.

  We visit Piazzetta Garibaldi, a small but historically significant square named after Giuseppe Garibaldi, the legendary general who played a key role in Italy’s unification in the 19th century. This peaceful spot on the Janiculum Hill is a tribute to Italy’s struggle for independence and offers a reflective pause amid the city’s rich historical layers. This is the last stop.

  On the return journey, we pass through Trastevere, a neighborhood that has preserved much of its medieval character. Known for its narrow, winding streets and lively squares, Trastevere was historically home to Rome’s working-class fishermen, craftsmen, and immigrants. Today, it remains one of the city’s most vibrant areas, blending authentic Roman culture with bohemian charm, historic churches, and bustling nightlife.
