Overview

What exactly can you expect from this tour?
Immerse yourself in the Rome of wonders, saints, and the Roman Inquisition. Experience the contrast between the veneration of exemplary saints and the secular side of the former Papal States.

Highlights:

You will visit the Church of San Giovanni dei Fiorentini, the last resting place of Master Borromini.

After that follows the famous Campo de'Fiori. A former field of flowers, transformed into a place of execution.

Then "Sant'Andrea della Valle" will enchant you with the Barberini chapel.

Then you will visit "Piazza Navona", with the fountain "Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi", by Bernini, and the church "Sant'Agnese in Agone", designed by Borromini.

Afterward, we visit the church "Santa Maria delle Anima" with its colourfulness and "San Luigi dei Francesi", with the paintings of Caravaggio and Guido Reni.

Finally, you will reach the highlight of the tour, the "Pantheon" and you will also discover the seat of the Roman Inquisition.
