Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Rome is undoubtedly one of the world’s most beautiful cities, and there’s no experience quite like taking in her beauty at night when only 10% of the usual crowds are present. This is a great opportunity to visit the city's most popular attractions while being beautifully illuminated at night and without suffering the stress of huge crowds invading the area during daily visiting hours. In the coolness and quiet of the evening, you’ll discover that the city’s buildings and streets take on an entirely different elegance after dark.

You will be picked up, from your accommodation, by one of our English-speaking chauffeurs who will drive you up to the top of Gianicolo hill where you’ll feast your eyes upon the stunning panorama of the Eternal city. From there you will drive through the enchanting, historical neighborhood of Trastevere and the city center where you’ll explore Rome’s treasures, and hear the stories of such famous sites as the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon and Piazza Navona while you admire them shimmering like stars beneath the night sky.

Your private chaffeur/guide will drive you and walk you (where needed) through the city's most important attractions and inform you on the essential facts and scoops that will make your visit unforgettable!

After the tour, you will experience an authentic Roman cuisine in one of our favorite restaurants!

Stop 2

With its imposing portico and large Corinthian columns, the Pantheon makes an immediate impression to visitors. After almost 2000 years from its construction, it is one of the best preserved monuments in Rome. It was built initially as a temple to worship the Roman Pagan Gods and later transformed into a Christian church during the Middle ages.

Stop 3

This World renowned square was built on the former stadium of emperor Domitian which dated back to 86 AD. Now it’s a charming spot to take a walk or drink a coffee in one of the traditional Roman bars on the sidewalks while admiring the beautiful Baroque architecture that surrounds the square. Above all, Bernini’s fountain of the Four Rivers in the middle.
