What To Expect

Your walking tour starts at Piazza di Spagna, one of the city’s most popular squares, known for its setting at the bottom of the Spanish Steps. Walk up these famous steps to enjoy a lovely view from the top, and then continue along Rome’s winding cobblestone alleys to the Trevi Fountain.

Stop at the fountain to post for photos and throw a coin in the water, if you wish, which legend says ensures your return to Rome someday. Then continue to the square that Romans consider to be the center of the city, Piazza Colonna, home to a column erected by Marcus Aurelius. Make your way to the Pantheon, a stately temple known for its concrete dome and open oculus, before heading to Piazza Navona, one of Rome’s liveliest squares, where street artists show off their talents and visitors mingle around Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers.

Optional Colosseum and Ancient Rome upgrade:

When booking, you have the option to upgrade your walking tour to include an additional tour of Rome’s ancient attractions, including the Colosseum. This is a morning tour, so it would take place first, starting with a leisurely walk up Oppian Hill for a view of the Colosseum.

Then head back down and enter the Colosseum, skipping the main entrance line with your priority-access ticket. With your guide, walk around the first and second levels of this legendary amphitheater, listening to stories about the gory gladiator battles that once took place here. Next, walk over to the Roman Forum, passing by the Arch of Constantine, and climb up Palatine Hill for more views. You’ll end on Via Sacra, a main road that links the Colosseum to Capitoline Hill. You have about two hours of free time before the Best of Rome walking tour starts so you can have lunch or take a break on your own (own expense).   

By booking these two tours together, you'll save 13% compared to booking them separately.

Walking and seeing so much!
Jackie_G, Apr 2024
Great tour! Did not realize Pantheon tour was not the inside tour as well. Tour guide very knowledgeable.
A great walking tour!
James_K, Mar 2024
Tour guide was funny and went at a good pace for the group. It was very informative and enjoyable. We would recommend it.
Amazing tour
Irina_B, Feb 2024
A very good experience and a very insightful tour guide, the 3 hr tour flew right by. Highly recommended!
Nice tour with insights
Jacqueline_V, Feb 2024
It was interesting to learn about the different sights and spots and our guide had also some recommendations for gelato or for a great view at night. Thanks very much!
Walking tour of Pantheon plus
Thillai_R, Nov 2023
We were not given the tickets to enter Pantheon. It was very disappointing to go there and not able to get in to the Pantheon. We need to get the refund of Pantheon tickets for two. The meeting place for this tour was not stated clearly. Piazza Spagna is a very large place with lots of people. We spent forty five minutes looking for the guide. The specific details of meeting location should have been given. Thank you
Response from Host, Nov 2023

Great walking tour
Barbara_D, Nov 2023
Our excellent guide, Lisa, was very knowledgeable about history & architecture. We enjoyed all of the landmarks. We had no problem finding the meeting place. Others did. We would suggest that you add that it is the metro stop by the bottom of the Spanish Steps.
Great tour
Matthew_B, Nov 2023
Great tour and very informative. The tour guide was really good and a great sense of humour. Gave quiet good information about the sights we were seeing
Eddy was GREAT!
Irene_R, Oct 2023
Eddy was absolutely amazing! Entertaining, knowledgeable and so personable. We had a great time and were excited to see all of the sites with Eddy leading us through.
Yuk!
Fred_M, Oct 2023
Losing out on this tour! Directions to the meeting site were a duplicate of a location above the Spanish Steps. Very disappointed.

Clint_R, Oct 2023
Hard to understand the guide. It was an English tour. It was interesting seeing the old relics and the colleseum.
Great from airy to hotel
Augusto_N, Oct 2023
Our driver was very nice and the trip to the hotel was very timely. This limousine service was a good replacement for our canceled Limousine service.
Worth every penny!
Anirudh_N, Oct 2023
The trip is totally worth the price and Davide was a great guide who had immense knowledge of the history of the city, country and the sights. Would definitely recommend this trip to those who are physically fit enough to be on your feet for 2-2.5hrs.
Wonderful Experience
Peter_P, Oct 2023
Anna, the guide, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The Trevi Fountain was exceptional. Piazza Navona was also a highlight.
Fabio was fabulous!
Angie_L, Oct 2023
Our tour guide, Fabio, was great, very high energy, fun, interactive and SO KNOWLEDGABLE! It’s A LOT of walking (on very uneven streets) but Fabio was very good at making sure our group had time to take pictures and showing us the best places to stand for certain shots and so on. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because you do not get to actually go into the Pantheon, you walk by and get an explanation of what it is, but there were at least 8 of us that were pretty disappointed, as we felt this was a bit misleading. But Fabio- we loved him, he helped us by pointing out tourist traps and scams.
Informative
Tara_C, Oct 2023
Great tour we learned so much. I recommend this for anyone who loves history. Our guide was knowledgeable and funny.
Ok
Janine_A, Oct 2023
4 stars for the guide, Fabio, who was fantastic and extremely enthusiastic. The tour stated it included entry to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, i asked the guide about this and he said it didn't. I contacted Viator and they said it didn't include this so I was very disappointed. Very odd considering the booking clearly states both are included. I was refused a 50% refund too. My advice is to double check with Viator what's on your booking.
Guide was excellent, knowledgeable and passionate.
Brendan_M, Oct 2023
Leader was knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. A joy to journey with. We enjoyed his humour as well as knowledge on the subject.
Had to miss it
shilpa_r, Sep 2023
No way to contact the guide once the tour started. I had to miss it . The call centre operator couldn’t help either as the guide was not reachable once the tour started
Response from Host, Oct 2023

Semi private tour was money very well spent
Laurie_P, Sep 2023
Ally was one of the most knowledgeable guides the six of us well travelled adults have had on one of our tours. She was very time efficient, engaging and charming. Couldn’t have asked for better experience. Thank you!
Great guide
Phoenix_B, Sep 2023
Great guide. It was our second tour of the day. So we were tired, she made it very interesting. Bravo
