The Rome City Centre Free Tour is operated by New Rome Free Tour
On this 2-hour free walking tour, you’ll discover the magic of Rome’s bustling streets, sweeping squares and baroque fountains, with architecture dating from the Roman Empire, through the Renaissance and beyond. Your fully-licensed, expert local guide will show you Rome’s most beautiful sights, such as the awe-inspiring Pantheon and the iconic, romantic Trevi Fountain - with much more in between!
The Rome City Centre Free Tour starts on the Piazza di Spagna, at the bottom of the Spanish Steps, and ends at the Trevi Fountain.
The Eternal City
While the ancient Rome of Caesars and gladiators may be the city’s initial drawcard, Rome’s Renaissance and Baroque makeovers have left an equally indelible mark on the city’s iconic streets and squares. From the elegant beauty of the magnificent Spanish Steps, to Bernini’s famous fountains on the picturesque Piazza Navona, you’ll see that the “Eternal City” is deserving of its name. Stroll along Rome’s fashion boulevards, the Via Condotti and Vie del Corso, window-shopping the exclusive boutiques as your guide leads you to more of Rome’s must-sees!
Domes, Frescoes and a return to Rome
As the epicentre of the Roman Catholic faith, it’s unsurprising that Rome has some of the world’s most significant churches to be discovered. Marvel at the Pantheon, the striking, circular Roman temple that has been a Catholic church for over 600 years and visit the Church of Saint Ignatius with Andrea Pozzo’s incredible trompe-l’oeil ceiling frescoes. Let your local guide give away the best tips for enjoying Rome’s culinary delights of pizza, gelato and tiramisu before heading to the famous Trevi Fountain to end the tour, not forgetting to throw a coin and make your wish to return to Rome!
