Relax and enjoy the highlights of the city, including some off-the-beaten-track sites It has been said that if you were to visit one thing a day in Rome, it would take you two and a half years to visit everything. No wonder they call Rome ‘The Eternal City’.

You will tour the Vatican Museums with our private guide who will also take you to visit the major highlights of the city. You will also be taken to some of the most fascinating spots that are off-thebeaten-tourist-track. You will be able to check off the best known historical wonders, romantic piazzas and lively trattorias from your wish-list. Imagine that you are strolling around, working off a pile of spaghetti alla carbonara, humming along to the tunes of the sidewalk buskers, when you casually arrive before the Trevi Fountain. If we arrive there during the evening, it will be lit up in all it 18th century glory. Be sure to have a coin ready!
