Full description
Visit Rome’s most prominent piazzas and illustrious landmarks with this audio tour, designed as a colorful and vibrant medley of culture, memories from the best Italian movies and local city life. Begin your walking audio tour opposite the Altar of the Fatherland, which stands as a symbol of Italy’s unification in the 19th century. Learn about the first king of modern Italy and pay your respects to the country’s unknown soldier as you discover the country's most significant national monument. Next, pay a visit to the city’s most iconic fountain. Be mesmerized by The Trevi Fountain's playful water displays and stories that come alive through your audio guide. Toss a coin in the fountain and immerse yourself in the Eternal City’s Dolce Vita. Continue your stroll to discover the Pantheon of Rome, a stunning example of the excellence of ancient engineering. With its colossal dome and continuous history spanning a period of almost more than two millennia, it is a must-see attraction in the heart of Rome. Follow your audio guide inside the enormous temple and learn about some of its bizarre legends before you head to the stunning church of St. Louis of the French, where Caravaggio’s masterpieces will cast their timeless spell on you. End your tour in Piazza Navona, a picture-perfect Roman square, just a stone’s throw away from Ponte Sant’ Angelo. Discover a charming ensemble of Baroque art, stunning fountains by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the master of the Italian Baroque, and bustling city life. You’ll also gain some fascinating insights about the erstwhile function of the piazza as a pool for the public during hot summer days.
